Najma's Residence

"Basma! Are you even listening to me? " Najma called out to an absentminded looking Basma .

"I was just thinking, Since we're leaving for Abuja today, what will happen to your Anonymous package?" Basma squinted.

"You are impossible Basma, Our flight would take off in less than an hour and here you're thinking about unimportant stuff." Najma shook her head as she zipped up her luggage.

It's been a month now that Mr. Anonymous has been sending her a package unfailingly everyday. They'll be leaving for Abuja today for Ameerah's weeding (Najma's cousin). Deep down Najma would miss seeing her anonymous package everyday.

"Baby you guys should come downstairs, we're running late." Mummy whined, "We will be there in a minute Mummy. " Najma announced.

Abuja.

"I can't remember when last I travelled, I'm so exhausted and famished........" Basma cut in right on time "That I can devour a whole cow" They said in chorused .

"I'm really serious, stop scoffing me." Najma rolled her eyes.

"I feel dirty , yuck! I need to take a bath now." Najma exclaimed in disgust.

"Queen Elizabeth! So you haven't changed one bit." Ameerah shook her head as she chuckled .

"Ameerah you won't understand, Sometimes I get irritated by the mere sight of my own skin when I'm sweating, let's not talk about my period, urgghhh!"

"Well get ready to get really irritated because tomorrow we're going to be out all day long." Ameerah announced.

"Why should we go out tomorrow? I mean next tomorrow is the spa day right?" Najma whined .

"Basma where did your friend forget her brains at? I could remember she was anticipating for this weeding more than anyone and now she has forgotten the program of events." Ameerah shook her head flashing an "I can't believe you" looks at Najma.

"Mum is calling me, before I come back you had better remember all the programs of events!"Ameerah declared as she used her index finger to point at Najma. "Yes Ma'am I'll make sure of that."

"How could I have forgotten? What's wrong with me?" Najma palmed her face.

"Kano's most eligible bachelor,he's the problem " Basma winked ,

"No , sorry I mean Mr.Anonymous." Basma quickly changed her statement after Najma flashed a mean look at her .

"Don't worry, As soon as we are through with this wedding and we go back to Kano , I'm going to find out who Mr.Anonymous is." Najma squinted.

"How are you going to do that? I mean all these while we couldn't figure out who Mr. Anonymous is , How can you do that now?" Basma asked .

"It's simple you know. We're in Abuja not Kano. So if I don't receive any package in Abuja then that means the gift vendor is definitely kano based. Forget about all these, my instincts is really telling me the gift vendor is really kano based.

So all I've to do is make sure I follow all the Kano based gift vendors, They always post their orders. So I'm sure if I see mine I'd know." Najma flipped her invisible hair.

"Bravo! This is really impressive Baby, I'm so proud of you. Mr.Anonymous doesn't know who he is dealing with." Basma smiled mischievously.

"Oh please, Don't make me feel too proud." Najma shrugged as she took off her headtie.
