FLASH BACK. CHAPTER 3

Its a monday morning which I woke up missing my school days wanting to go back to school. I wish I can even be back to SS1 just to start again because those days can't leave my memory for a while.... The day I started my SSS went like..... Sameeha wake up, ummu called my name, I pouted telling her i won't go cox am enjoying my sleep. She repeated, Sameeha zaki tashi ko se nazo da bulala. I stood up not knowing when I did so because she will just hit me with her hand and it's painful😫. Entered d toilet singing Dorobucci nothing concern me. As i was bathing and singing, Ummu came into d toilet which made my mouth shut, I started to look for my towel not knwing Ummu have already grabbed it. She came closer and I knw the next thing is she's gonna bath me. I pouted, jumping and hitting my legs to d ground, I said, Ummu when will u stop bathing me? 'Sanda kikayi hankali😏'. Laah yanxu banda hankali? See keep shut we are in d toilet. Yes ma! She continue bathing me and I was just sitting bacause am alredy used to it why bcox She usually does dat since when I was a baby n untill now dat am an adult😉when I say Ummu am not a kid fah, then she will reply with 'haba Sameeha na meye If I bath u am I not your ummah, and I will hug her and say thats my mom'. there was a time she bathed me together with Kauthar😪God!  I. Was so shy then...
      She finished bathing me and rapped me in a towel as if I was not 15 years old, she gave me oil to rub and i told her to just do it for me since she's my momma, she shook her head and apply oil to my body telling me she must tell my sis dat she bathed me cox she's in school. When we were done, she held my hand and we headed to d dining area which she fed me, and I was gisting  her with Various stories. I didn't eat much cox I don't like eating unless if dad will buy me ice_cream. Ummu drove me to school,Fuoad Lababidi Abuja,  as we entered, we met with another new student in d headmistress office. As I saw her, i went close to her and hit her head, the girl was surprised, not only her but her parent, d headmistress. My mom only kept her head down eyeing me with her eyelids. When I saw what she was doing I went close to her making my voice audible by saying 'Ummu why are u eyeing, are u shy dat u looking down? Ummu put me on her laps telling me to apologise if not she will not come n pick me up but Ema(our driver) will do so. By hearing dat, i bowed and said'friendy am so soo sooooooo sooooo sooo sorry, i was not trying to bully u but want u to be my friend dats all, dats why I touched your head. Is it painful? The girl smiled and said'wats ur name, which class are u, because u look stubborn? I eyed her and told her my name is Sameeha and am in SS1A she was happy and told me her name is Rufaida and she's also in SS1A. A guy dat came with her which i guess is her brother was just frowning and hissing at me. My mom apologised too and collected Rufaida's mom number. They escorted us to our class and turned to leave. I looked at the door and started crying, the teacher asked me why I was crying and I told her i don't want to school again bcox I don't want to miss my mom, the teacher was startled and called out for my mom, when she turned, tears were all over her beautiful face, I ran out and hugged her, she hugged me back telling me to study hard, she said dat she will come early to pick me up I should not worry. Rufaida's mom pat her at d back and held my hand, she walked me to class and told my bye, she waved at Rufaida and they left. Mallama Fatima our form teacher asked me if I was d last born and I told her am d first born, she widened her eyes and said its been long she saw dis love been portrayed between first born and his/her mother. She went out and our english teacher entered d class.
