Chapter three: Personal Maid
SAHLA'S P.O.V
Hearing daddy say that Afeerah was going to be our maid was the best thing i have ever heard today. It means i have control over her and i can embarrass her in school all I want.
She'll regret being the slightest beautiful
I munched on my pizza sitting next to daddy as i gisted him about what happened in school today.
I may be a girl but daddy is my best gister. (Forgive my language😂😂😂)
I don't really like ammi that much. I can't talk to her about anything.
"Sahla. This, you're my daughter." He said when i told him a joke.
"Daddy!! I'm tight." I complained childishly when he pulled my closer to him.
"Hahaahahh. Je kiyi sallah. Bazan tafi massalaci" Go and pray. Let me go to the mosque. He said switching off the TV. It was already 6:45pm.
"Okay daddy. Amma fah kasiyo mun suya in zaka dawo." But fah buy me grilled chicken when you're coming back. I said.
"Ciye ciyen kinnan. I wonder why you aren't fat." Eating eating of yours. He tapped my nose and got up.
"Man²." I laughed.
My dad's name was Othman Lukman so when he was in school, he was just called man². He told us the story and from that day, i held the name.
"Yarinyannan. What does your mother give you wai?" This girl. He laughed leaving the parlor with a smile on his face.
Sahal doesn't really talk to daddy much and once, daddy told me that i was his favorite.
I walked upstairs and into my room, taking my iPhone 6 that was placed on my queen sized bed.
I switched on my data and entered whatsapp. Messages just kept coming in. I saw a message from the group that consisted of me, Ilham, Hayyam, Farhan and zarah.
Me: hey guys. U cant blv wat i just found out
Hayyam: what? Oya spill
Ilham: tell us
Zarah: listening
Farha: 👂
Me: you'll find out in schl😉
Ilham: just tell us now
Me: the only thing i can say is....
Me: we have a new maid 😀
Farha: that's all?
Me: you'll find out tmrw. Bye lemme go
I didn't wait for their messages before i switched off my data.
I walked downstairs and to the kitchen where some maids were situated working.
"Where's the new girl?" I asked one of them.
"Taje aje kayanta ms. Sahla." She went to keep her things ms. Sahla. The maid replied.
"Ki gaya mata nace tazo ta dauka kayan wankin daki na." Tell her i said she should come and take my dirty laundry. "Now." I added before going back to my room waiting for Afeerah.
I wrapped a black veil around my head and applied some mascara so i could make my eyes seem bigger and scarier.
Knock knock
