The things I do for you guys....sigh

MALAK'S POV

I sigh snapping shut the last suitcase for my trip. Nadeen is sitting on my bed with her tear streaked face.

We've had the same conversation for more than 3 days now and all it results to is her crying at the end.

The last time I've been to Kano was about six months ago, that is since I got married. And while I actually don't mind staying here, Eid in Kano is a whole different thing and I really want to be there for it.

Everyone is Available during Eid, even Nafisa landed from school about 2 days ago and while you get to see people you don't like, there are also people you'll like to meet so it's not entirely bad.

Nadeen asked me to take her with me and while I or her father wouldn't mind, I'm trying my best to stay out of the Tafida trouble.

Nadeen has spent all her Eid with her cousins here at her grandparent's mansion and I'll hate to take that away from her.

People are going to talk about how I'm trying to separate her from her family already and I don't even know how some of my family back in Kano will react to having her there.

I also have some very mean people in my family. And if they dare try to say a word against my baby I won't hesitate to keep that home training aside.

The safest option in this situation is to let her spend her Eid with her cousins. And I can take her to Kano with me another time when it's not Eid.

"Mama please I want to go with you. I'll be a good kid" Nadeen pleads for the millionth time her face drawn into a frown and I sigh. "You need to stay here and take care of Lulu since I'm leaving her cupcake, remember?" I ask with a forced smile because I don't like making my baby sad.

She wants to protest but decide against it last minute as she nods her head and I smile. "Come here" I say softly and the next minute, she's in my arms already.

"I'll miss you" she whisper and I chuckle lightly placing a small kiss on her hair. "I'll miss you more and I'll be back before you know it" I reply her and she nods.

"C'mon, stop sulking now. Go down stairs and tell Raliya to give you one of those chocolate bars" I say after our little cuddle. Her eyes lit up after she hears the word chocolate. "Okay, love you" she pecks my cheek and I laugh. "Love you too" I shout back but she was already out of the room.

Eid might be next tomorrow or the day after it. To avoid any unwanted circumstances, Na'eem got the jet ready for tomorrow afternoon. So tomorrow, I fly out and then 10 days later back to Abuja.

We-and by we, I mean Huda, Suhayla, Mimi, Aisha and Latifa who begged to tag along are supposed to go to the spa today for manicure and pedicure.

We were also supposed to get our henna done but Huda called in a favour and we're getting a home service. So all of us are going to gather at her house now.

I decide to take Nadeen with me since she'll have the twins and her other cousins to play with. Plus I don't like leaving her at home alone.

Immediately I finished packing everything and checking it all over again just to be sure, I dress up Nadeen in a simple dress before I myself got ready and we left.

When we arrived, Mimi, Aisha and Latifa were there already together with two workers from the spa and a henna artist. Suhayla being the only one yet to arrive.
