23 JUNE 2023
IN THE MIDST OF DARKNESS, STARS STILL FIND A WAY TO SHINE.
Just 2 weeks left for Asmau's wedding.
We told Abbi that we want to spend days in Kano before the wedding and he agreed. So we're currently in Kano state. Oh I missed living here!.
Yahya, her fiancé came to pick us as she's doing her project defense today.
After he dropped us at the school, we waited for her to finish.
He came and picked us again then took us to the market and left.
We have booked everything we need for the wedding, the hall, decor, food , the MC, the makeup artist and the henna designer.
A week back, Asma'u started her body treatment.
"He's waiting for us outside" Asma'u said.
"Okay" Maryam simply answered.

Day 1 (Henna Party)
It's the henna party day and we all dressed beautifully.
The bride, Asma'u, wore a beautiful black and golden atampa, with beautiful stone work all over it. She didn't apply any makeup except the simple powder, lipstick and kohl. She's naturally gorgeous.
For the henna party, we booked a medium hall as only her friends are to attend the party while the elders are doing their own too.
It was a beautiful hall, adorned with meticulous care. Elegant drapes cascade from high ceilings, framing ornate chandeliers. Lush flower arrangements in varying hues breathe life into the surroundings. Subtle lighting enhances the space, while tasteful artwork and intricately designed furniture add a touch of sophistication, creating a truly captivating atmosphere.
Yahya gave us huge amount of money just to take care of the wedding and his darling wife, so why don't we spend it!?
The bride sat on her high table as the henna designer was neatly painting her hands with black henna and red.
We, her friends were also in our zone because we hired five henna designers.
My own was done in a jiffy because I wanted a simple one.
I quickly snapped it and sent it to my boo.
Maryam wanted a fancy and a full one so it took more time than mine.
We hired a female Mc because we want to dance, as in dance like there's no tomorrow.
We played games, and it was fun.
"Subhannallah, I'm so tired". Asma'u said immediately we entered her room.
"Girl what are you saying? This is just day one". Maryam answered with a laugh.
"Tell her, you said you want to marry and just for the henna party you are tired. What would you say on the Dinner day? You are dead?". I spoke and that made the three of us to laugh.
