               Chapter two

            Zainab's POV

   I smiled as Ahmad pulled up the car and I saw member of our family  outside waiting to welcome us. My father was smiling at us. I got down from the car to greet them and so did Ahmad and k.b.

"Mama na ya kike (my Mama how are you)". 

"Fine baba"

The greetings continued like that.  My younger siblings came to welcome us. They took my luggage and searched for goodies . I let scatter my things because I'm too tired to complain.

My Moms were in the kitchen. Yeah I said my Moms , my Mother and my step Mother. The both of them are like sister's, always together  no much rivalry between them. 

My Mom (Jummai) is my dad first wife while (Asabe) is my Dad second wife and also the mother of Amina sometimes I wonder why Amina can't be nice, funny, caring and sweet like her mother.

My step sister Amina, and I are totally different in Many ways Even physical features. She is average in height not too tall not  too lemme just say she is 5 foot tall we are probably the same height. She has an ebony black complexion while I'm brown skinned. The only thing similar between us is our doe eyes that shine bright (at least that's what people say). 

 When I my room I couldn't help but thank God for giving me my younger sister Salma AKA Sally because she arrange and tidy up my room of course anytime I travel she stays in my room and she always makes sure it's tidy and neat.

I unpacked and then took a quick shower after that I wore my pajamas trouser and a huge sweat shirt. I prayed my salat and then went downstairs to the dinning room where I met my stepmom serving dinner.

"Mummy!" I screamed and hugged her. "I missed you so much" I said releasing her from my hug "Inna Mama na?(where is my mother?)"

"Kitchen tana (she is in) kitchen. Baby na you have to gist me about Abuja."

"Trust me mummy I will give you the full details lemme go and see Mom first."

She nod her head with a smile that shows that I could go.

My Mother was in the kitchen truly but with someone I wasn't prepared to face 'Amina' my evil stepsister.

"Zee Mama" my mother screamed and hugged me and Amina rolled her eyes.

"I missed you fa" my Mom said 

"I missed you too"

"How are you and where is K.B why hasn't he come to greet me. Immediately Ahmad came back he seeked for me and came to greet me but you and K.B are not like that you allow me to seek for you......

I interrupted her rambling. "Mama na I just arrived it's to early for you to scold me besides I came to you not the other way round. Ahmad was just too early" 

"Ahmad missed me more shikena(that's it)"

"Mummy na, you know it's not true so what can I do here."

"Don't worry Zee you just came back, Amina and I can handle everything" 

"No she should wash the dishes." Amina who I forgot was in the kitchen said. She knew I hate doing the dishes.

I glared at her and she glared back at me. It safe to say that was a glaring competition.

"Girls I'm not ready for your troubles, Amina, I'll call Sally to wash the plates. Zee, you go to the dinning room Asabe is already serving dinner." My mother interrupted our little competition.
