"Baba Dan allah."(baba please). I pleaded. "Manal no!" Baba yelled. "Baba Nadia needs her father with her, please you cannot separate a child from her father." I said.

"Fine, but if you go there and he does anything wrong, then you'll not come back here." Baba said. "Th-thank you baba." I said.

I packed my bag and Nadia's clothes too. I started the journey. Soon enough, I reached my home. I missed this place so much.

Abubakar came downstairs just in time. "Abuabakr!" I yelled and hugged him tight. He didn't hug back but I ignored that. "Baby, I missed you." I muttered but he didn't answer. "I'm so tired, I'm going to go upstairs and freshen up and also change Nadia's diapers." I muttered.

"No don't!" He yelled and stopped me. "Why, I'm going." I said. "N-no I want my sweet wife to cook something for me, I missed your cooking." He said smiling. I knew it was a fake smile and that something was fishy.

"Weird." I said and left to the kitchen. I wanted to start cooking and then I just decided to go upstairs. I went to our room and I was shocked.

"Please go, she's back." Abaya ke muttered. "I won't go Abubakar." A voice muttered. It was a females voice.  I went into the room and saw Aafan. What the hell!

"What the hell are you doing here!" I yelled and slapped her. She was literally half naked. She only put on a towel. She raised her hand to slap me but Abubakar stopped her. "You dare not!" He yelled and I smiled slightly.

"Get out of my house!" I muttered. "But-
"You heard her, get out!" Abubakar yelled and she went and changed then before she left, she said " I hope you won't forget what happened between us, it's the second time." and smirked.

"A- Abubakar what did you do?" I asked tearing up. "Manal please don't leave again she- she laced my drink with something and I lost control over myself, I- I don't even remember what happened." He stammered. "Are you telling the truth?" I asked and he nodded with teary eyes.

"I can't leave, and I won't leave." I muttered and he hugged me. "Let me go and get Nadia from habiba and change her diapers." I said and he nodded.

Some years later~
Nadia has grown up and is now in secondary school. Nadia has a best friend whose name is safiyya. Safiyya is a not so good person, she is influencing Nadia to do bad things and go around with boys.

Meanwhile, Manal has her own interior design company. It's a very successful business and she's gaining a lot.

Manal's POV
"Dia, where are you?!" I yelled. Nadia's nickname is 'dia' "mom I'm coming." She said. "Be fast." I said.

"Mom what is it?" She asked. "Safiyya said she's coming over?" I asked. "Yes mom, I'm waiting for her." She muttered. "Okay dia go back to your room, and when she comes do not make too much noise, or else you'll disturb your dad." I said. "Okay mom." She replied.

"Good afternoon aunty Manal." Safiya muttered. "How are you fiyyah?" I asked. "I'm fine aunty." She said. "Okay, dia is upstairs." I said and she nodded.

"Oh children, they grow up so fast." I said to no one but myself. "Right?" Abubakar asked. "Yes baby." I muttered. "I love you." He whispered loud enough for me to hear. "Love you too." I whispered back and he kissed me on the lips.

Monday~
"Dia get ready for school." I said. "Mom I'm coming I'm almost done." She said. "Okay baby." I muttered.

After a while, dia came downstairs and the school bus took her to school. I had my bath and headed to work. I finally had the strength to drive my car. The car has been sitting there since it was bought.

"Good morning ma'am." My PA greeted. "Morning." I simply replied. "Where are the files of the clients from last week?" I asked. "They are in my office ma'am." She replied. "Bring them to my office ASAP." I muttered. "Okay ma'am." Halima muttered. (My PA).

"Okay, they are coming today right?" I asked. "Yes ma'am." Halima replied. "Okay once they are here bring them to my office right away." I muttered. "Okay, may I leave now?" Halima asked.
"Go." I said firmly.

"Good morning Mrs Ngozi." I muttered to my client. "Morning." She replied with a smile. Mrs Ngozi is a very nice woman. "Okay so this is the design you want for the curtains right?" I asked. "Yes yes." She replied. "Okay." I said.

Nadia's POV
"Safiyya your not okay I swear." I muttered. "What Isn't he your crush?" She asked referring to Ahmad. "Shhhh." I said when I saw him approaching.

"Umm hello." Ahmad said waving. I could have sworn my heart skipped a beat. "Oh... u-Uhm Hy." I muttered stammering. "How are you?" He asked. Weird. "Fine, I mean ofcourse... I mean I'm fine." I stammered. Oh shit!

"Nervous?" He asked. "No umm." I said. "Okay, see you later." He muttered. I smiled. "Stop blushing." Safiyya muttered. I smacked her playfully.

"Mama I'm back home." I muttered. "Welcome my baby." My mom replied. "Thank you mom." I said and went upstairs because I was exhausted. Ugh!

Hyyy
