"I see you are enjoying yourself dear Rukkayya, this is just the calm before the storm!"
Rukkayya read it aloud twice before bursting into fits of laughter. One bad habit possessed by Rukkayya is that she will laugh during serious moments.

"It's the "calm before the storm" for me!" She said before bursting into another fit of laughter. She was too busy in her episode of laughter to notice someone looking at her as if she ran away from the mental asylum.

"Adda please you can now stop the laughing session, it's enough! You're been laughing for ten minutes straight. Sometimes I wonder if you are actually human." Rukkayya's  sister, Rumaisa said, in turn receiving a glare from her elder sister who was apparently a laughing mess.

"Come o, don't you say salaam before entering a person's room?" Rukkayya reprimanded her younger sister with that "African mother" tone.

"Adda I did say my salaam, you were too busy laughing to even notice someone saying the taslim." She explained basically not ready for her sister's never ending lectures.

Rukkayya just mouthed an "Ohh, my bad!" with an embarrassed look and turned to hear what Rumaisa has to say, because the girl rarely comes to Ruky's room unless she wants "something".

"Adda you know I love you right? And I care for you. You are the apple of my eyes, the sugar in my tea, the butter in my bread--"

"Esss madam what do you want? Get straight to the point, I've gats some school work to do." The older sister interrupted because knowing Rumaisa, she will go to the extent of using "You're the blood that runs through my veins".

Lol.

The younger just smiled sheepishly before composing herself still with that goofy smile of hers.
" Soooo, I have been honoured to be the makeup artist for thee  Safiya Abba Tukur. Like for literally all the events in her wedding!!!!" She ended with a squeal.

"Okay, so who is Safiya Abba Tukur?" Can't lie, Rukkayya has heard the name from some of her friends, and she just brushed it off because she's gat no flipping business with the girl.

Oops, lady.

"Adda are you freaking kidding me? Like you don't know theee Safiya Abba Tukur? Are you sure you live in Abuja, because literally everyone in Abuja knows her."

Okay now this is getting weird, who is this lady and how is she thatt famous in Abuja?

"Well obviously I don't know her, what's up with her?"

"Oh my Lord! She's marrying one of the richest bachelors in Abuja o, we're talking about Kabir A.A!!" Rumaisa is very dramatic, very very dramatic.

"Hmmm, all this rich bachelors are marrying o, let my  future prince charming no join them o." It's Rukkayya and her prince charming against the world. Her imaginary prince charming.
