Taheera's POV
We finished everything from bathing to breakfast to facing mummy and ya ibrahims scolding some hours ago. In addition we just finished washind, drying then knitting back mummys pillow that we destroyed. We did quite a good job they look amazing. They have to, with all my knitting skills. I had taken knitting and tailoring classes as an after school activity. Am even thinking of opening a fashion designing and photography buisness,its morw like a dream. I don't know am yet to decide.
We are now sitting in uncle Babas study going through some of his magazines and taking chocolate chips and nutella when my phone suddenly buzz. It was abba yayy.
"Assalamou alaikoum abba, good day, how are you, mama, mummy and the rest. I missed y'all, how's work, when are you coming i cant wait to see you, 've been" i didnt finish talking abba cut me off after laughing lightly
"woah woah tiger slow down. We are all fine, were you not the one' ve been calling and you're not picking up, I had to get this number from maama" awwn abba is so sweet... Urghh my samsung core prime, i forgot about it totally
" sorry abba its in my bag" i explained
"okay then, i wanted to tell you ne something came up and you have to come home today, i have already booked for your flight and everything, its by 04:30" he didn't finish i cut him off
Guess this is a cutting off conversation
"But abba i was supposed to spend a month and its hardly three weeks, cant it wait" trying to hold back the tears that were forming
Yeah yeah I could cry a river unnecessarily but this is not unnecessary, is it
" yes my dear it cant wait, i said its urgent ok" abba explained calmly
"ok abba i will tell aunty"
"i already told her, you can even come back here after everything is done so bye"
" bye" with that i hang up. I moved over to Suhaila and hugged her
" whats with the sudden change of mood tee" suhaila asked scrutinizing my face
" Abba called " casting all my courage to tell her getting ready for her breakdown
" i know that silly" she bugged me a little on the arm trying to lighten the mood hahaha not working
" he said he wants me back home today, something urgent came up, he already booked me a 04:30 flight " oh mi God i said it
"ohh, lets then live the remaining time we have, shall we"
Whaat! I didn't know it was gonna be this easy. I thought she would cry or do something more crazier. I mean on normal basis when aunty won't let her have chocolate for dinner she would burst into cries till she gets it. She cries for the world, the world best crier if there's anything as such. Am glad though
I arrived bauchi at 05:15 dot. Maama, mummy, ameera, amra, nadine and ya Muhammad were all happy to see me. But ameera and amra wont give me a break with their disturbance from trying all the dancing moves they got from siangé twins to the ones they see from the perkins sisters, to trying out their horrible voices to sing.
