FATIMA'S P.O.V

Kaduna, Nigeria
4:12pm

I was driving back home feeling really tired, and then I remembered I had to go shopping with Hamidah. I definitely know she must be waiting.

I arrived home in 10mins. I entered the parlour with a Salam.

"Assalamu Alaikum "

"Wa'alaikums Salam" Hamidah answered.

You're back already and it's like you are tired.

"Yesss Hamidah, I am really tired. And I know you want us to go for shopping" I said, as I sat on the Sofa.

"We could just go for an Ice cream instead" Hamidah said

"Yeahhh... that would be better. Let me take a quick shower and I will be out in a jiffy. Oh and where's Baaba Deeje? "

"Alright then. She's in the kitchen cooking dinner ,she said she doesn't like maids cooking for her. As for me,Suhaila (Maid in charge of cooking) got me a superb Fried rice and it was soooo deliciousoo" Hamidah said rubbing her tummy while liking her lips

I laughed at her little talk

I quickly went to the kitchen to meet Baaba

"Baaba'am " I said , as I hugged her.

"Na'am (Yess) Batoula'am (My Batoula) , a war ti na?   (You're back? ) "

"Yesss Baaba'am,  I'm back , but I'll be going out to take Ice cream with Hamidah, Wanna join us ? "

Noo you girls go have fun. I'll stay to prepare dinner. And make sure you come back early fah.

In Shaa Allah, we will Baaba.  Let me go freshen up.

I went to my room took a quick shower and wore a simple blue gown and and blue R&S veil. Wore my Beige Forever 21 sandals  and took my Beige Hèrmes Paris bag and I went out sharply.

Hamidah are you ready ?

Yesss Adda, I'm ready. Waoooow. Adda you look soooo Uh la laaa... Or are you meeting someone else after the Ice cream ? She wiggled her brows.

Keh I'll slap you , I dont have time for your stupidity,  let's get going.

I walked passed her leaving her there laughing like a lunatic.
Then she later followed me out.

Adda Batoul you really love black cars. I just noticed all the cars here are black.

Well girl,they scream class and respect.  I said as I unlock my Black Venza and we both hopped in.

The ride to House of Cakes was fun. I and Hamidah sang and sang with the songs along in the car till we reached House of Cakes.
We entered and we both chose our favourite flavours and we sat down close to a window while we spoke and dug into our Ice cream.

Then another customer came in. Him and his daughter,I guess. She looks like a 4year old.  They went over to choose their flavours. She kept on turning around to look at me and I felt uncomfortable and I decided to wave at her.
