It's been two weeks since maryam's wedding and it's two weeks to Aisha's, everyone is back to their normal activities before the wedding starts. Aidah is leaving for florida a week after Aisha's wedding inshallah for her graduation and to shop for her wedding. She told Ammi that she wants to be among the people shopping for her house and she agreed.

Sayyid's family came for the official 'Tambaya and sa rana' last week. They set the date for June, along with Yassine's wedding.

Today they are going to a polo tournament, Hammad, Samad and Sayyid's team is playing today so they are all gonna go and support them.

She got dressed in a navy blue dress shirt with a blue denim mom jeans, a Dior canvas and put on blue and white vintage scarf into a nice turban after quickly brushing and tying her hair. She picked her navy blue Lady Dior bag and phone and left the room to the living room where Mahmoud, Sultana and Yassine are waiting for her. Sultana is her cousin, she is baba's sister's daughter. She came yesterday from Kaduna and will be staying till Aisha's wedding inshallah.

She entered the living room just to meet three angry faces staring at her. She flashed them a cheeky smile. "I'm sorry, let's go''

They went outside to the parking lot, entered Mahmoud's car and zoomed out of the compound and to the busy streets of Abuja.

They shortly arrived at the venue where they are a lot of people. On their way in, they met Ruqaiya and Sauda, they went in together and took their seats.

The game has already started when they arrived, with Sayyid's team leading. It is a 6 chukker game and now they're in the 2nd chukker .

She was sitting in the middle of Ruqaiya and Yassine while Sultana and Sauda sat in front of them and Mahmoud disappeared immediately they came in.

''Seriously this game confuses me." Ruqaiya complained.

''Yeah me too, it's like this minute I know what's going on and the next I don't'." Aidah agreed.

They were quiet for a while when Yassine spoke ''Aidah what number is Sayyid?''

''I have no idea." She said applying lipgloss ''Ruqaiya what number is your brother?''

''I think he is number four..yeah four." She said and Aidah nodded.

They continue to watch the game, with the timber wolves are leading of course. Yassine excused herself and went to her fiancé 's place leaving Ruqaiya and Aidah.

''It's like I know you from somewhere else Aidah'' Ruqaiya said

''Really, where?'' She asked with a chuckle.

''I don't know....which secondary school did you attend?." She asked.

''El-Amin minna" Aidah replied.

''That's it. I went to that school too''

And with that, they engaged in a conversation about secondary school. She told her that she was in the same class as her brother Najib.

''Oh yeah, I remember him. We were so close in school, we were like best friends." She said laughing.

''And now you are becoming his sister in law...oh it's a small world''

''I know right, where is he seff?''

''He's in Manchester." She replied.

''What is he studying again? I knew he wanted to become a farmer is it?'' Aidah said and laughed.

She laughed. "Wai farmer, Najib has issues wallahi''

The game has finished, the timber wolves won as usual. Ya hammad, Sayyid, Samad and a couple of their friends came to us in the parking lot
