Yesterday 05/01/2024 was my birthday, i wanted to give double update but Allah bai yi ba.
Say a prayer for me.
*****
Mama you cannot do this,for Allah's sake you need to stop.Mahmood loves me and i am madly inlove with him too,he was the only one i saw when i had no one,he was right there when you abandoned me....
Hajiya Rabiatu didn't see that comming,neighter did maimuna expect the brain resetting slap she recieved. There she was thinking she was the best mother any child could ask for,she works tirelessly,morning and night just to make sure her daughter lacks nothing and today this same daughter tells her that she owes all of her life to a boy?Maryam's brother of all the good men in this world? Wow! Just wow!
Its either her daughter has been swaped by some wicked people or she has lost her mind.
The two were always arguing lately, it was never like that before,she had brought up her daughter to respect every ado of decision she makes for her, Maimuna has never said no to her mother, not even when she forbade her from talking about her father, the girl has diligently being living like an orphan.
But then comes love, the biggest most problematic feeling in the whole world, Ever since mahmood came into her daughters life,everything changed.
As if she was shrouded in a blanket of guilt,she sat gently at the edge of the couch,they'v been standing since the conversation begun.
"All this things i am doing is to protect you maimuna,you are too inlove with this boy and its unhealthy." She paused and glanced at her girl breifly,just to make sure her attention was with her.
She remembered clearly 21years ago,how she personally concentrated on her hennad hands while her own mother warned her against marrying Omar and those exactly were her words. She sounded like her mother today and she doesn't like that.
She doesn't like that maimunatu has refused to keep proving she is her true daughter. That karma will find you at your most vulnerable moment and remind you that all you have sown must be reaped, by you and you alone.
Now she is fighting tears,she doesn't want her daughter to share thesame fate as her. Where is omar today?
she lets the tears fall freely with no intention of holding them back. Marriage is beyond maimuna's fantasy and she is not stopping until she gets that into her skull..
All this while,maimuna sat on the floor,with so much anger,she just wants to disappear. And all this tears her mother is shedding is not gonna change the fact that she loves mahmood,beyond reasoning.Adda thinks so,everyone thinks so but that is their cup of tea .
She stood and headed for the door,she refuses to sit there and watch her mom blackmail her with those tears,she is begining to realize anytime those tears appear,it has to do with her father and since she has no knowledge whatsoever why her mother never smiles at the memory or utterance of omar Elmustapha,she is beginning to grow more frustrated.
"Sit maimuna."
And she did, reluctantly waiting for her mother to say whatsoever it is she wants to,for she maimuna had made up her mind, not even Haj Rabiahs tears can change it
"I will tell you a story today, something you've always wanted to know. After that you can decide weather i am being wicked to you or just being protective"
