Haseenah's POV
8:45pm
Life as they say is not a bed of roses,rather it is the battle of the fittest. When you need something desperately you wake up from your slumber and make the winnings.
I am deeply in love with ya Aslam and I can't bear seeing my loved one in pains,I pray for Anty Dee's soul everyday and I pray for Allah interference in my life. As usual ya Aslam is still the same person he is,still not showing a lot of affection. After Anty Dee's death he buried himself with work he's always busy with trips and the rest. He barely has time for himself and I know Mamii is not happy with this change.
Today happens to be the day he's returning from one of his numerous trips to Ghana where he attended a seminar and Mamii decided to make preparations for his arrival since he'll be staying at home before his next trip which he's leaving for in a week. He arrived around evening while I was out with mama and munir so I was not present for dinner, I only returned when he and Abba left to pray isha.
I came out from the bathroom after taking my shower removing the towel I tied on my head before taking out the hand dryer, I dried the hair tying it in a messy bun at the same time walking into my closet to select what to wear. After 30 mins of searching and searching I found a simple abaya and a matching veil I didn't bother with make-up I just powdered my face and apply red lipstick. I finished everything by spraying my perfume, I picked up my phones and left the room.
I heard their voices even before I entered the living room I stood by the console to check my face before entering with salaam, Mamii and Abba replied while ya Aslam's face held an unreadable expression, its been 11 months since her death and he has passed mourning but he's still not the same,my heart pains to see him not fully recovered. I sat on the sofa besides Abba while they continued chatting,from time to time I would look up to steal a glance and I always find his gaze on me after doing this for the third time I became self conscious. Abba cleared his throat after a while before speaking up
" Autana?", he called out." Naam Abba" I replied looking at him then bowing my head.
"Nida mamanki mun tattauna akan wasu abubuwa( your mother and I discussed about some things),and they concern you a lot, amongst them is about you working. I know you've always wanted to work but I can't agree to that for now you're not getting any younger and I'll love to see you settle down before I leave this world." he smiled at this point, I noticed his eyes were misty. My mind was already telling me what he was going say and then and there I vowed to obey whatever it is he was trying to tell me.
He continued "Auta I hope you won't hate me for this domin I have chosen a husband for you" he was looking pleadingly at me.
I smiled " Babu matsala Abba you're my father and you have every right to choose who you think is right for me, I promise not to disappoint you and Mamii but you should help me with dua" I said.
"Allah yayi miki albarka" Mamii chipped in.
"Amin" I answered.
"The person I chose for you is none other person than Aslam here" he said.
My head was screaming OMG!!! Ya Aslam, I looked at Abba and he was looking at me too,I slowly moved my eyes and it landed on ya Aslam who seemed unaffected by the news rather he was typing away on his system, It looks like he's been told about."Abba insha Allah I won't put you to shame. Allah ya kara girma(don't exactly know howta interpret dis), may he grant you all your heart desires" I said in a tiny voice.
Abba seemed happy with how everything went he prayed for us after the emotional sermon he did to us. I left the room immediately Mamii left, My brain doesn't seem to have digested everything properly " I'm getting married to ya Aslam my childhood crush and I'm going to fulfill Anty Dee's promise" I thought as I slumped on my bed.
I didn't want to start disturbing my best friends this night so I decided to send a message to our group on WhatsApp.
Me: i really need you guys tomorrow plzzz.
Lee: does it involve black wears and guns.
Me: * rolling my eyes* no it doesn't but it really important guys I'm serious.
Amy: 12:00pm prompt bye gat to go.
Z: Ohk we'll be there.
Lee:make sure there's pizza....bye
What will I do with this girls God? And I love them so much.
