I watched the stars as I smiled at the way they are twinkling, I twirled myself as I watched the moon..

Ya Allah, I love the view infront of me..

I smiled as I continued walking through the busy streets,I felt my heart lightening immediately after I came into view with my house..

"Salamu'alaikum": I said smiling..

"Wa'alaikumussalam":Amma and Minal answered in unison..

"Ya Areef":she shouted as she ran to hug me...

"How was your day":Amma said smiling..

"It was fine": I smiled..

"Minal go and get his food, I know that he must be hungry":Amma said looking at Minal..

"Yes am very hungry sef": I said settling down on the soft carpet..

"So how's your zobo business going":I asked as I opened the cooler..

"It's going as smooth as I never thought it would,people are even lining up for this zobo,all the zobo I made today finished in less than 3 hours":she said smiling..

"That's a good thing indeed,may God continue helping us":I prayed..

"Ameen":Amma said smiling..

"Where's Afreen And Zayd": I asked..

"They are sleeping":Minal answered..

"Okay": I said standing up..

"They have been chased away from school":Amma said..

"I told you to get them enrolled in a government school but you didn't":Amma said angrily..

"The landlord also sent a notice about the house rent":Amma said tiredly..

"Am waiting for this month salary,I will pay the school fees and I will talk to the landlord tomorrow I guess he will understand the situation": I said tiredly..

"And amma stop worrying yourself am still here, I will take care of everything": I said hugging her..

"Go and sleep":she said ..

"Okay": I said walking to my room..

I slump my body on my mattrass as I start thinking about the expenses..

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

"Assalamu'alaikum": I heard Minal by the door..

"Wa'alaikumussalam": I answered sitting up..

"How is work?":She asked..

"Fine": I answered chuckling..

"How many works are you doing":She asked..

"It's of no use for you to know": I smiled..

"So how's school, I hope you're studying well": I asked..

"Yeah am studying hard bro":she said smiling cheekily..

"I want a bright future ahead of me, I want my children to have a good life so I have to work hard for it":She smiled sadly...

"Yes they deserve to have one": I smiled..

"I don't want them to have a poor life like ours":she blurted..

"Minal": I warned..

"Our life is not poor but a perfect one,we went to school and we eat food everyday never have we ever skipped a meal in our life,we wear nice clothes also but still you are not grateful":I said angrily..

"Rich people might own 30 houses and maybe each house might have 20 room but still they live in one house and sleep in only one room out of all the rooms ,they might have thousand of clothes but only wear one at a time but the most wonderful thing is that when death replace birth we will both live in the same house and that's our kabr,we will wear the same clothes as them and that's likafani ,there will no be any difference between us then,we will be equal": I said with tears..

"You should be grateful with what you have and thank God,many girls like you are on the street selling things just to earn money but you": I kept quite for a while with my eyes closed...
"You are still not happy with what you have,you are above a million of people but you are still not happy with all this": I said sitting down..

"You are studying nursing in ABU Zaria and it is one of the best universities in Nigeria,you should be happy":I said caressing my eyebrow..
"Am sorry bro":she said crying..
"I know you are trying hard to give is a nice life ,you let go of all your dreams just for us,you huzzle day and night just to provide a good life for us,thank you so much for trying this hard for us":she smiled..

"You are not just a brother to us but a father also":she said hugging me..
"I know it's not easy for you but still you never showed it":she said still hugging me..

"Thank you and I love you":she said smiling..

"And am so sorry for what I said, I just let my insecurities get the better of me":she smiled sadly..

"It's okay sis": I smiled..

"Thank you and good night have a good sleep but don't oversleep tomorrow is Monday":she said running out..

This girl is sometimes childish..
Yeah tomorrow is Monday, I have got a good feeling about this day..

Bye❤️
