Well I just pray I finish this on time yeah
Asma
If I once for a second hated Maya I take it back, she's such a sweetheart, we were both in my toilet currently with me helping her to wash off the henna in her hair right after I washed mine, she came in while I was putting henna on my hair and forced me to allow her to finish it for me, which ended up with her getting it on the shirt she was wearing, after she was done I asked whether she wanted too, she smiled nodding yes, I told her to ask Mukhtar if he was cool with it, she said he was, I parted her hair into four and also applied the rest then we decided to watch Matilda, halfway through she got scared of her powers so we switched to Shaun the sheep, she was in love with it, and two hours later we were washing it off
"I love your hair" she stretched her arm as I sat her on the side of the sink to drain the excess water out of her hair, I smiled "I love yours too" she kicked her dangling legs and it brushed my knee, I opened up the moisturizer and rubbed it on my palm before massaging it into her hair, I've always imagined doing this with my niece and this was a dream come true for me and she was loving it, I picked the bowl of mixed oils- avocado, Argan, almond, rosemary, rose, mint, grape seed and black seed oil and also massaged it into hers, I picked a wide toothed-comb, and combed it through, her hair had this frizzy curly look and I did the same with mine too
"I want to plait my hair, just like the one you do" she looked up to me as we walked out "box braids?" I asked to confirm, she bobbed her head, I wanted to say no, the mean me was going to say no, but the aunty living-me said "ok" and I got myself into a wrist killing work, her hair isn't really full, just lengthy, we sat down and I began parting her hair "you wash my hair better than dada, he gets really scared and asks me 'do you have shampoo in your eyes? Is it hurting?' It gets annoying sometimes" I smiled at that, he cares so much about her and he didn't hide it
"And he doesn't like plaiting my hair, he says mama liked her hair left freely, she hated braids" mama? Is that her mum? He talks to her about her? Or is it his mum? They call their mum Amma
I was already working on the first one "I like your braids, they're really cool" I love compliments and this girl was making her way to my heart with it "thank you, to what do I owe all the compliments, you want sorbets or slush? Which one?" I joked "I'll take the sorbet since you're insisting" she replied, I chuckled, she talks a bit over her age
As I finished the first one she held it "this is the best, I always wished mama was here to do this for me, Anisa always tells me about how her mum does her hair for her" I smiled sadly, but she didn't look sad, she looked good just to say
"When we're done can I paint your nails" she turned to look at me "sure" I smiled and continued, well an hour and a half later we were done and she painted my nails after she prayed, and just as I stepped out of the closet my phone started ringing, I picked it up "I'm back home, do want to hang out?" Was what greeted me, and this wasn't a question it was him telling me 'we have to talk so let's meet' because the normal Ya Maleek though obsessed with me would never just want to hang out with me on a normal day, plus we met less than two weeks ago and I called him three days ago
"Where?" I asked straight to the point "steaks and corn" obviously that's where we're meeting "I'll be there in thirty" I estimated, I was wearing a body con already and instead of the silk dress I was going to wear over it, I changed into an olive green floral dress
And true to my words, thirty five minutes later we found ourselves with steaks and corns in front of us, I went for corn on a cob while Ya Maleek his usual- sweet corn in a bowl, the first three minutes he tried to act normal, as though it was just a lunch, I kept on looking at him eating my corn as he told me all about what I didn't ask
