AHMED'S POV
Walking towards the staircase, someone bumped into me. I was angry that time that I was thinking of slapping the person, but then I held myself back.

Hey watch where you are heading to, I said angrily to the lady.

I'm sorry I didn't see you coming, the lady said, she was beautiful although but that's not what am prioritising right now.

Why will you notice me, when you are walking and not looking at your front, I replied to the lady.

Excuss me mister, I just apologize stop blabbing shit, the lady said looking at me.

Wow so she's not so innocent, I thought to myself.

Oh am blabbing shit, to hell with your apology, I replied to her angrily.

Please carry your anger issues somewhere excuse me, the lady said passing me.

Wait did she just work out on me , I said to myself. She's so rude, I said again working towards my room because I know that nobody will attend to me right now.

I entered my room and sighted, wow it's so good to be home. I spent two months in Paris for a business workshop and I'm just coming back today.

The next day I wake up around 5am and went to the masjid then I went back to my room and slept.

Wakeup Ahmed, I heard a voice waking me up.

Ahmed wakeup, I know that it's only Amma that have the audacity to wake me up when am sleeping. I don't even know how I slept off, I did not even pray Isha.

Oh Allah, I said to myself waking up.

Ahmed why don't you tell me that you're already back, Amma said interrogating me.

Amma I don't want to disturb you, I know that you're busy with guests, I  replied Amma.

Okay stand up and pray then I'll tell Amna to bring your food, Amma said to him knowing that he won't come out for dinner today.

Okay Amma thank you, I miss you, I Said to Ammi.

Miss you too Ahmed, Amma said to her son.

I went to the masjid located in our house and prayed, by the way since am back, I will be leading the prayer.

I went back to my room and met Amna waiting for me.

Yaya welcome back, Amna said.

Thank you Amna, how are you, I said to her sitting down on the sofa next to her.

Am fine Yaya, I thought that you won't come back, Amna said.

And why will I miss my sister's wedding, I replied. I stood up and went to my closet and bring out the gift I got for her. I handed the box to her. It is a custom made box of jewellery which contains three different types of jewelleries, made from gold, diamond and rubies.

Thank you very much Yaya I love them, Amna said crying.

Hey don't cry, I said to her.

Thank you, she said living my room. I felt satisfied that she loved the gift I got for her.

The next day, I got ready for the kamu events because Amma kept insisting that I must go, and I have no other choice than to go. I drove Ammi into the event center and I stayed in my car because I don't want to go into the hall.

I saw the rude lady going into the hall.
I waited for one hour then I went into the event center. I went towards the back of the hall and I saw the lady sitted alone on an empty table. I sat at another table at her back. I was pressing my phone and by the time I raised my head up I saw her leaving the hall and after five minutes I saw Hadiza leaving too. At that moment I know that something will happen because I know who Hadiza is , she must have a reason of following the lady. So I decided to go out too.
I was taken back hearing Hadiza calling the lady a rejected child, insulting her and I have to stop her.
