Hanan's Pov...

   I stirred awake and opened my eyes to a dark room with the air conditioner touching right through my skin . I snuggled deeply inside my blanket and then turned to my left where husna's neatly laid bed is located .

Yeah!! We share a room because the girl is scared of sleeping alone.

Can you believe 16 years old , ugh.....

I sat up and said my morning adkhar and then got off the bed .

I got to the toilet and brushed my teeth along with my face , I came out six minutes later and ambled out of the room.

"Sha'awa ykk" I said to our house help as I walked into the parlor

"Lafiya qalau" she said politely
She was around 18 years or soo...

The house was eering quiet because of course husna is at school, Dad is at the office and ummie told me yesterday that she was going to the boutique because some clothes were been delivered from Senegal..

I went to the kitchen and made a cup of coffee coz I'm a fan!!!

I opened the warmer and served the chips and egg ummie made. I served a little and went back to my room to call ummie(my mom).

^^^^^

Our house is a big bungalow with 5 rooms, a kitchen, a store, 2 parlors, a backyard and a garden .

After eating i then took a shower 🚿, I wore a black plain abaya with stones and tied the veil carelessly around my head and lastly made my bed before apply bakhoor my room, toilet and wardrobe.

I look turaren wuta soo much that everything of mine smells like turaren wuta (bakhoor).

With nothing to do I decided on baking to while away the time..

Yes you heard right!! I love baking. No I love everything that has to do with cooking, I'm a pro and make the best , I got it from ummie because she also is a pro when she's cooking .

Anyways.... I started thinking on what to bake , I made cinnamon rolls a day before yesterday and my sweet annoying sister decided to finish the remaining ones I kept in the fridge...

Yes!!?..

Butter cookies it is...

I brought out the ingredients for the butter cookies 🍪 and then got to work.

Oh and I wore my apron!..

48 minutes later I was done and I got everything settled in the oven ...

I took off the apron and went to get my phone from the room . I got it and went out i called mom again to ask her what to cook and she said I should leave it she's coming home to cook herself...

I called dad and greeted him and then called my crazy best friend rahma.
While waiting for my cookies I decided to sit in the parlor and maybe watch something....

I went back to the kitchen and hmm!!the kitchen was filled with the nice aroma of the butter cookies .

I brought them out and send some streaks with them and then took a bite of a piece.

Hmm😋Tabarakallah masha Allah, yummy and soft.

Allah ya karo zaqin hannun , I prayed for myself.

I gave some to Sha'awa and she complimented me . That's one thing I love. To be complimented, it makes me happy.

I kept some for everyone and went back to my room. It was already 1 o'clock , I performed my ablution and sprayed my prayer mat and wore my light brown ironed hijab and prayed my four units of prayer along with Nawafil.

Ummie came back afterwards and I went to greet her, she wasn't in her room probably in the kitchen .

Yeah she was in the kitchen cooking.

"Ummie you are back, sannu da aiki" I hugged her.

"Yawwa hanan nagode"she replied.

"Ummie taste my butter cookies " I said excitedly .

She tasted them and moaned..

"Masha Allah ,yayi dadi sosai"she said.

"Allah ya kawo miji nagari da zaki dinga mai girki mai dadi" ummie added.

Me.? Maryam.? Marriage.?
Hmm... as if I'm ever going to get married......
