Ihsan's POV

"Come on let's go it's time to open your gifts" Jamal said dragging me from the kitchen to the living room where all my friends are surprisingly seated as if they are waiting for me

"Inyeeee see love" Hanan cooed making me roll my eyes

"You are not serious" Jamal chuckled, he pointed at the chair that was decorated with flowers and had an inscription on it which read 'Its the Queen's birthday y'all bow down'

Chuckling at the words written on the chair I sat on it

"So who is starting" I asked excitedly

"Meeeeeeeeeeee" Khadija enthusiastically raised her hands up and picked a big box that was wrapped with green and blue wrapping paper

"Sai kace wani abun arziki ne (As if it is something special)" Usman rolled his eyes while Khadija glared at him

"Abeg me dai give me" I snatched the box from her and tore the wrapper, using a razor blade that was passed to me by Amal I tore the tape that sealed the box

"Eiiii" I squealed closing my eyes, I opened my eyes and I saw...........

"Keh wallahi tallahi I will wire you slap" I glared at her while she flashed me an apologetic smile

"Mstwww ki rasa mai za ki bani sai(of things you decided to give me) tissue papers and pads" Wallahi she is not serious I thought it was even a dress or something special because of how big the box looks

"Toh Allah dai ya kyauta" One of my friends shouted out of the crowds and we all chorused 'Amin'

"Haba mana my love, you know that I just came from Turkey two days ago and baba is angry at me and he even collected my card faa" Khadija pouted as she held my hand

For a moment there I forgot she is in pepper soup because of going to Turkey.So you see Khadija's parents got divorced 2 years ago, reason? I don't know oo wetin concern me seff.Anyways Khadija lives with her dad while her mom lives in Turkey with Khadija's twin brother,khalifa,believe me when I say he is one fine specimen! He is the male version of khadija wallahi they are somewhat identical

So khadija misses her mom and decided to go go turkey,she asked her dad but he got angry at her.She called her cousin from her mom's side and he bought them plane tickets and went together.She had a great time you can see it from the pictures she snapped with her mom and brother her smile was full of warmth and happiness.Fast forward to 2 days ago when she returned to Nigeria, her dad was extremely furious and he collected her phone and ATM card, but of course Usman bought her another phone and sim card without her dad knowing.She is supposed to be grounded right? Her dad went to Bauchi for a business,he asked the maid to lock her up but of course she bribed them with smiles and hugs,that's why she is here

"Oya naa thank you, this will last me a year or two" I smiled keeping it aside

"Okay I'm next, here. Happy birthday Ihsan" Usman smiled handing me boxes of chocolates

"Oooh Usman habibi I love you muah" I said blowing him a kiss

"Madam khadija stop glaring at her like that" Sadiya said making us laugh

"Ai shi ne(that is right)what will she do with Usman she has Jamal" Amal wiggled her brows while I nodded my head

"Okay I'm next, happy birthday love" Amal said passing me two boxes, one was bigger than the other.I decided to open the small one first
