It was khair.

"Khair?!" She said.

She ran to her and gave her a bone crashing hug.

"Okay that's enough" Hamida said tearing away from the hug.

"What are you doing here? Who brought you here?" She asked.

"Big uncle did momma." Hamida was stunned.

She murmured something under her breath like "Why did he brought khair here? For what reason?"

She started thinking of so many things while still standing in her position.

Then she heard someone tapping her arm and when she looked at the direction she saw khair looking at her worriedly.

Khair said "momma aren't you happy that I'm here or is something wrong?"

Hamida quickly masked her face with a fake smile and said "no no my angel... that's not the case. I'm extremely happy that you are here with me now its just am a little bit confused as to why your big uncle brought you here."

Khair smiled and said "momma when I was in the hospital big uncle came and told grandma that he will take me to my momma and grandma agreed with him and you know what...?"

"No" said hamida.

"Grandma promised me that she will also come to stay with us here."

"Really?"

"Yes momma."

"Now come with me I'll show you your room"

"alright momma."

Later in the evening Alhaji Mahmoud called for a family meeting.

All his wives and children assembled in his sitting room.

After a while he came into the sitting room.

He started with "Assalamualaikum everyone..."

They chorused with "Waalaikumus salam."

"I assembled all of you here because I want to introduce someone to you. We have a new addition to our family and that is Ummul khair right here..." He said while pointing at khair.

"She is hamida's daughter and I brought her here to stay with us which means from now on she will be staying in this house. I hope there is no problem."

"Aa Alhaji ni dai banida matsala" hajiya Rashida said (she is Alhaji Mahmoud's first wife).

"Kefa hajara?"

"Nima banida matsala"
(She is Alhaji's second wife).

Alhaji smiled contentedly and said "toh alhamdulillahi haka ake so."

He continued saying "yauwa Ummul khair this right here is my first wife hajiya Rashida..." He said while pointing at his right side where she was sitted

"and this is hajiya hajara my second wife" he also said while pointing at her who was sitted by his left side.

"Ina wunin ku" she said.

"Lafiya lau" they answered uniformly.

Alhaji point at his daughters and said "Ummul khair these are your mates ruquayya and ummu khultum (ummu)."

khair looked at them and smiled at them.

Ummu smiled back but ruquayya just ignored her.

He futher introduced her to their two elder sisters hafsah and hauwa and their two younger brothers (twins) lbrahim Khalil (Khalil) and Al Amin (khalid).

They have two elder brothers ahmad who is married and Muhammad (imran) who is single and also two married women amina and Fatima.

After the introduction they all went back to their various chambers (they all have separate chambers because the house is as big as a palace so every wife has her chamber).

When it was bed time hamida went to Alhaji Mahmoud's chamber as today is her duty.

She entered his sitting room with salam.

She sighted him sitted on the couch of his elegantly made royal chairs watching news on his television.

She sat next to him and started saying "abban ahmad I..."

"No need to thank me hamida." He said cutting her off.

"I know but I have to."

"Why?" He asked.

"Because for a person to take such a big responsibility upon himself is a very big thing and so the person needs appreation."

He just smiled and said "its my duty so no need."

"That's why I've always loved her because of her unique personality" Alhaji said in his mind.
