LUBNA🥀

She was snuggled into lavender scented sheets, black silky hair sprawled across the pillow, her long dark eyelashes a contrast against pale cheeks and her small pert mouth slightly open, from which one could hear soft snores. Sitting besides a sleeping Lubna was Hazna who had a huge grin on her face, mischievous eyes shining, while she leaned in to Lubna's ear.

"Happy birthday!" A shrill voice screamed, making a disoriented Lubna sit up in bed holding her right ear with a scrunched up face.
After realising who the person sitting next to her was, Lubna glared at her, before laying back down on her bed, "ki barni inyi bachi Mana (Let me sleep)."

Hazna smiled, waiting for Lubna to come to her senses, and she did. Seconds later Lubna sat up and squealed, jumping on Hazna.
"Yaushe kika dawo, miye sa baki pada mun ba? (When did you come back, why didn't you tell me?)" Lubna asked.

"Last night." She said still with a mischievous smile on her face.
"I wanted to come back for your birthday and surprise you so, mama told Akhi (brother) to bring me back."

Hazna and her mum had gone to Abu Dhabi for her cousin's wedding a few weeks ago. Lubna had missed Hazna a lot, although they spoke a lot over the phone, it still wasn't the same as her being there.

"Your Akhi?" Lubna had known Hazna since the first day of high school, but she didn't really know her step siblings, so she didn't really have much of an impression of him. She only knew he'd been staying in the United arab Emirates with his Mother and siblings.

"Yep, They are relocating back to Nigeria. Abba(father) is retiring and Akhi is going to take over." Hazna said. "And there's gonna be a retirement party tomorrow, You have to come." Hazna smiled to the thought of her siblings coming back, but not Hajiya Harira(her stepmother) That woman is just bad news. Hazna thought.

"I'll definitely be there." Lubna said with a huge grin on her face. She has always been a people's person, she loves parties so much, but not too much.

"Okay now forget about all that, go get ready we're going out."

Lubna sighed, "I don't really fell like celebrating." She said with a gloomy face.

It was on her 17th birthday she'd met that scoundrel, Faisal. He had been introduced to her by her father's business partner, and they instantly hit it off. She should've known there was something off, especially when he kept on avoiding her meeting with his family, but like a fool she trusted him completely. She even gave excuses for him to her parents. Everyone knew they broke up and she has been sad ever since, but no one actually knew what she had gone through except Hazna, obviously.

"He's not worth thinking about, today is your birthday and I'm not taking no for an answer."

Hazna said to Lubna gently, before she grabbed her hands and pulled her up.
"You're turning Nineteen, so we have to make today a memorable day." Lubna rolled her eyes, but still smiled nonetheless.

"Hey shawty it's your birthday, we gon' party like it's your birthday" Hazna started singing and Lubna followed while both jumping on the bed singing at the top of their voice.

"Now go take a long hot bath, you stink" She threw a towel at her, pushing her to the bathroom whilst scrunching up her face.

"Ouch" Lubna soundly hit her chest feigning hurt. She hurriedly closed the bathroom door and proceeded to do her business.

As she finished, She lazily dragged herself out of the bathroom meeting Hazna who's face was glued to her phone whilst blushing

Wonder who's making her blush like that.

Right on queue, a raven haired boy appeared out of nowhere, smiling, displaying his deep dimples. He looked to be around 4 years old.

"Aunty Lubby" He called whilst pouting.

Ashraf was Lubna's one and only Nephew, well for now. He looked a lot like his mom who was Lubna's Elder sister Karima, they had the same eyes, small pointed nose, even the same long black eyelashes though it was very rare in boys. He was light skinned, with very thick but shaped eyebrows, He's the typical mummy's lookalike.

"What!" They both shout out with a giggle, "What do you want?" She asked while Hazna picked him up and placed him on her lap.

"Ammiey is looking for you."

"Which Ammiey, my Ammiey or your Ammiey?" Lubna asked knowing very well that Ashraf calls both his mum and grandma 'Ammiey'

"My Ammiey!" Then he ran out screaming.

"Whatever goes on in that 4year old brain of his." Hazna said making them both fall on the bed whilst laughing.
