Unknown number- Layla Hussain, you stay away from Muhammad Yerima because he is mine, he is the love of my life, he is just playing you, he doesn't love you, he is just leading you on. I am just telling you that so that when something happens you won't say I didn't warn you. Stay. Away. From . Muhammad.


What?! Is someone threatening her to stay away from Muhammad. Well, whoever the person is should know that She wasn't the person that arranged the marriage, she was even against it. She checked that unknown number that sent her a message few hours ago.

She quickly dialed Ibty's number and told her about the message. "It must be that salima from tulip or whatever her name is." She blurted from the other end.

"Don't say that Ibty. Zato Zunubi, it might not be her but only Allah knows the person" Layla replied.

It's past midnight and everyone is asleep. She ended the call after talking to Ibty. She told her that she's coming tomorrow in the morning before they leave for katsina. She performed abulution and prayed two nafils then She decided to call Muhammad.

He picked after two rings. "Hello." Came his husky sexy voice, he sounds like he is asleep.

''Hey, I'm sorry i woke you up''

''No no, it is okay. How are you ?'' He asked.

''Lafiya Alhamdulillah, where are you?'' She asked.

''Missing me?" He asked and chuckled.

''Nah! not at all. I went to your house today and Ni'imah told me you were outta town with your mum''

He chuckled. "If you say so. Yeah I am in kaduna but coming back tomorrow inshallah."

''Allah ya kawo ku lafiya'' She said and he replied with 'ameen'

''Well, just wanted to say hi and tell you that I will be going to katsina tomorrow inshallah'' She said.

He sighed. "Katsina Kuma? for how long?"

''Four to five days, I think'' She replied.

After telling her how much he will miss her, they said goodnight and she drifted to her slumber.

The annoying sound of her alarm woke her up at 5;30 sharp. She went to the toilet and perform wudhu and prayed subh. After praying, She went back to sleep.

''Layla, wake up and shower." Manmy, her second alarm said tapping her.

Layla lazily got up and headed to the bathroom to take her shower. She came out and headed to the closet to look for comfortable clothes to wear for the trip. She spotted a blue Ankara boubou with white patterns. She picked a blue turban cap and a matching veil.

Just as She was about to go downstairs, her room door widely went ajar and there came her bestie, ibty.

''Hey canım (my love)'' Layla said.

''Hey hafsee''

''I will miss you when you're gone." She pouted.

''I'm going for just 5 days but i'll miss you too bestfriend'' Layla said hugging her.

"So.....about that message" She said breaking the hug.

"I told it's that salima or is it salma girl." She said.

"Don't be so sure Ibty-"

"Layla, you guys should come downstairs" They heard Mammy's voice before She could finish her sentence.

"See, we'll talk later inshallah." She said. She hugged her and left.

Susan, their maid brought her suitcase downstairs and took it to the car. Layla went to the dining room where She found daddy, mammy and Norah eating breakfast.
