Today like always ziyada dressed and bid her mama and sisters goodbye before she went out.

She is waiting for cab when she feel as if someone is watching her.

She ignore the feeling for she always feel as if someone is watching her these days. It might just be her uncertainty playing a trick on her.

The feeling is growing stronger so she decided to look. Sure a guy is standing a good five feets away from her.

But his eyes are on her. As if he is checking her out or something.

Ziyada is uncomfortable and praying for a cab to show up so that she will be gone from the place. Her heart started beating faster as she feel him approaching her.

''I have seen you somewhere but i can't put a finger on where it is''

the guy said with full confidence. Ziyada ignored him. He face her.

Looking at her closely.

''You don't know me ok''

she said moving away.

He followed her.

It is evident she is scared of him and he is liking it as ziyada is fully awared of where he might have seen her. On the internet. And naked of course.

''Stop following me''

she said clenching her teeths. He just smile in a taunting way.

''I know where i have seen you before. Care to give me a close show''

Ziyada just stood there and stare him down.

''leave me the hell alone or i will scream. I swear i will''

He is about to say a retort when a guy stand between them.

''You heard her. Get lost''

the guy look at the new guy his suprised showing on his face.

One thing is clear. With the new guy he know he won't stand a chance. So he did what he is told giving ziyada one last look before he left.

''Are you okay''

the new guy asked ziyada who is slightly shook by it all. She managed a nod. He smile at her kindly.

''I am mustapha kabir''

She just look at him wondering if he have seen her naked too and is just pretending to be nice out of pity.

His smile deepen showing a dimple that makes him look cuter.

''It is ok if you don't feel like telling me your name. If you don't mind i will wait with you till you get a cab''

She nod for the second time which made him laugh.

''what is funny?''

ziyada asked him confused. He raised a brow.

''May be i should laugh more''

''Pardon''

ziyada said again. He is confusing she thought to herself.

He laugh again liking the confused look on her face. She is beautiful he though to himself and he like her voice.

''When i laugh you talk. I just guess you might like my voice is all''

he said in a teasing tongue. she give a small smile and thought telling him her name won't be worse.

If he have seen her naked her name is attached with those pictures.

''Ziyada.....I am ziyada''

she said.

''ziyaadaa''

he said as if testing the name on his tongue and seeming to like it.

He stand with her untill she get a cab. Thank him and left. Mustapha quickly run to his car and followed them.

See where the cab drop ziyada.

*

Mustapha is beaming to himself on his way back and praying silently for he have a sudden certain feeling that his coming to kaduna this time is a blessing.

* Ziyada keep seeing mustapha's face without understanding why. She just let it be that it has been months since any guy look at her with any decency. Or be kind to her like mustapha did today. Standing up to that cruel guy for her and all he did is so out of what ziyada is expecting from any guy. She slept that night hoping what is left of her life will stay on track..........!!!

I know it is very short. I am sorry guys. I am kind of not feeling okay.

Thank you for all the du'as. May Allah bless you all!!!
