All The Way From Home

chapter 8

Remember what i said about uncle jalal going back to the hotel to see that I'm missing ? Well I came back before he did and now Uncle jalal doesn't have to know Dora went on Luton exploring right ?

"Firdaus, ive set up your new phone number , you can now call home . And I'll be leaving tommorow, that is why i need to take you to your dorm right now .but don't worry , all in our way I'll show you some places" he explained

" i understand uncle jalal "

We visited the mall,an Italian restaurant then uncle Jamal declared time was up ,as for me , well my stomach knows best

I was starting school tommorow and I needed to sleep on time ,but that was after I called ammi and had hours of conversation which includes me blabbing how it is here and how i miss home

Uncle jalal finally left for the airport leaving me alone in Luton

Well I guess this time I'm really on my own

"Umma, halima hasn't changed tad bit , I thought by this time she'd stop eating this much but she's still the same"

Halima always had this habit of eating junk and she never grows fat, I suggested to umma that she gets transferred to Nigeria because she won't eat as much junk and she didn't find it funny at all

"Haneef, I don't know what to do about it honestly . We are just lucky she doesn't grow fat " she said while we both laughed

"I'm hergh yurth gytrs " halima said , which I guess to be " I'm here you guys " but because she has burger muffled in her mouth off course her words wouldn't make sense

" umma, I'm supposed to see Abbas co worker today , he heard I was here and he asked if I could come "
He has been a really nice man to us even after Abbas departure

"Haneef, off course you can. You're not occupied at home so you could go visit , my warm regards to him" she said while chopping carrots on the board
Umma never gives her cooking a rest and I never give eating it a rest

Firdaus pov

It was my first day at Bedfordshire and I still have myself contemplating whether to step a foot inside or just go back to my dorm and watch the originals all day long

I honestly was never good when it came to crowd or meeting new people and today has to be my lucky day since I'm facing all the two right now

Just great

"Umm...excuse me " a voice behind me said and why do I feel like I've heard this voice before

I quickly turned and I guessed right we both stood saying

" oh its you again "

"Yh, it's me " i decided to speak up

"Why are you standing by the entrance? Waiting for someone " he asked as any other person who sees a girl standing here would

"No, I'm waiting for no one . Its just...oh just forget it . I'm fine " I said with my famous smile

"Hey...I understand ,you're new here and you don't know anyone .can I walk you ? I hope that's nothing "
I wanted to say no, but i thought a little walk won't hurt and who am i kidding ...I need someone to be with me . So I accepted

" yh , sure "

And that's how i proceeded in getting to the lecture room and now I'm about to get into mcb 101

Yes ,I'm a medicine student
