                 Zainab's POV

   After the commotion with Sally, K.B went with Sally and Sadiq to the so called Ashraf's house. Turns out Ashraf was Sadiq friend who comes to the house to hang out with him. I never really liked him he was a proud idiot. I wonder what Sally saw in him.

Fatima was busy with my phone so I had no option but to arrange my scattered room as we wait for Ahmad to come take us to the airport. When I finish cleaning up my room I let out a satisfied sigh. I could just sleep here forever but I need to take a shower because of sweat.

   Finally after I showered and dressed in a black floral long sleeve gown with purple and blue prints. I walked back to the kitchen leaving Fatima in the room.

I met Ahmad in the dinner room when I went to eat there. I know that he was exausted. His head was rested on the dinning table. Being the first child can be very exhausting.

I sat opposite him. He noticed my presence and looked up and gave me a weak smile to which I smiled back.

"Yaya Ahmad what's up with you?" I asked smiling at him.

"I stink, infact I think I smell like a ram." He sniffed himself. "Yup I definitely smell like a sheep. I hate myself."

"No you don't, you actually smell like a rose flower have you been using mom's perfume." I eyed him suspiciously.

"Obviously!" He laughed. "If mama won't use it I'll help her after all I'm her favorite child."

"But it's for females not males." I pointed out and he huffed.

"Who cares. Zee mama na gaji wallahi.(I swear to God I'm tired)" He complained. "I want to go back to Abuja, Baba wants to finish me with his work here."

"It will get easier. Anyway Fatima is in my room." I told him trying to cheer him up.

"Oh! Let me go get ready I need to take that your Yusuf guy to the airport." He grumbled.

"You don't need to take him if you are so tired. I'm sure he'll understand. You need to take a break Yaya" he smiled and left after I said that. He works to much, I think he needs a break.

"Are you guys ready. Let's go to the airport." Ahmad said immediately he came to the palor. He changed his previous black caftan to a blue one and he sprayed more of Mom's perfume.

"Yep I'll just call Fati and we can go." I said before going to call Fati from my room. She was totally engrossed with whatever she was doing.

"Fati, Ahmad said we should get going." I informed her.

"KK." She answered and followed me down telling me about the movie she was watching on my phone which I didn't even know I had.

"So the guy shot his son. Moment after that help came how devastating." She narrated the end of the movie she had watched and I must say that it's heartbreaking.

Ahmad drove us to Danladi's place. I was confused at first what were we doing here but when I saw Yusuf I got my answer we came to pick him up.

"Hey man" Ahmad greeted shaking Danladi.

"Fatima the psycho longest time." Danladi teased Fatima.

She glared at him warning him "if you call me a psycho one more time you'll find yourself in a psychiatrist hospital as a patient or a normal hospital in coma."
