Along the road of life

Surprise

Chapter 20

Mom called me, saying "Azeezah come, they are here. Come and serve her. "
"Okay mom. You seem so happy"
"Of cause am happy. Karim is finally being serious for once in life."
"Am happy too mom. Can't wait for their marriage"
"Me too"

I brought some refreshment for our guest
"Azeezah"
I look up to see Farhana, the same Farhana.
"Farhana" i whisper not believing she's actually here.
"Farhana" i said and crush her into a hug.
"Oh Azee, we have search for you everywhere in Abuja. How did you end up in Katsina?"
"Long story, its a long story Farhana. Are you still in contact with Munira? Is she alright?"
"She's doing great now. She has told her family everything, she's just worried about you. We  thought your brothers have your contact but they don't. It was when your husband came searching for you that they get worried. You have to go home."
"I can't" i said standing up and leaving the room for them.

I went back to my room and start thinking of why he's looking for me, what does he want now?.
Even if am to go back, i have to pursue my studies. That's the first thing i need to do now. And am almost through. Am leaving for Lagos in a month now, if they can forget about me 2whole years then they can wait for one too. I have so many plans for my future now and i don't intend to let anyone on my way.

Mom walked in together with Farhana saying Karim has left.
"Why don't you want to go back Azeezah?" Mom asked.
"Are you tired of me mom?"
"Of cause not, am just worried"
"I'll go back home but not now mom"
"I want to attain something i can hold onto even if no one is ready to hold me when i fall. Something that will be mine and no one can take it away from me. Something that with it i'll earn respect and people will think twice before accusing me. Let me mom, please"
"If that's what you want" she said making me hug her tight saying "thank you mom for being a mother to me"
"Okay, let me leave you two to catch up things"

"So, mom told me how you end up here!"
"Good, so how did you get to me Karim"
"Well, he came to baze with his brother for some transfer student case, which i now guess was yours, he took my number. We became friends, and after sometimes of friendship he asked me out.  We started dating and then now we are ready for marriage"
"Wow, that's amazing"
"What about you. Anyone got a hold of your heart?"
"No, not yet. I was first crushing on Majid but when i realize his cousin was into him and tried causing me trouble. I stopped and its because he's so nice and always try to know my pain and gives me a shoulder to cry on but  we are just friends and i would like it to stat like that. And with the marriage ties on me i don't think am allowed to love anyone. So am doomed"
"True, are you going back to his house?"
"I'll seek for my divorce when i get back their. I know its not a good thing for the wife to seek for her divorce expect under circumstance and with how we get married and my stay in his house. Its not a live i would wish for my enemy talkless of me going back to it"
"I agree with you. You should be free from him after all he curse your life"
"Don't say that. I wouldn't want to think of being curse by a man like him"

We talk all day, when Karim came back he took Farhana back home with the promise that he'll take me to her house soon if Allah wills.

Mom was so happy that i finally get to meet someone i know and Karim future wife.

I now had more faith in achieving my goals. I'll go back home and i'll get my divorce from Osman. He'll clear all the misunderstanding he causes between me and my family.
He destroy my life without even trying hard. The way his words, just few words, destroy  me was so unbelievable.
I still can't believe the fact that i went through all these suffering in life alone to no one to lean on. No one to hold on and still here i am.

What do you think about the surprise.

Do you think that seeing Farhana will be of any help to her.

Who will come up with a ship name for Karim and Farhana.

Azee finally admitting she once had a crush on Majid.

Who see the fault of Anisa for claiming what she loves even though she's too much.
