Baby shower
Amal:
How time flies , it's actually the day of my baby shower, and the house was full since yesterday like it was a wedding , so basically mama and mami with my cousins and friends slept here so they can arrange the baby shower , it's happening in the garden of my house cause the garden is big that a party can be hosted there , so I quickly got up from me and khalifah's bed and quickly went into the shower , when I was done I took a bath robe and went to my room where my friends and cousins are , the make up artists are gonna be here by 12;00 cause the party is starting by 1:00pm , so the time is actually 11:30 now so I entered my room and met all my cousins and friends jisting while eating breakfast , heyyyyooo (me) yello maman baby (Ayesha) how far nah babessss(ihsan ) am good how r all of you , did you sleep well(me) maman baby come and eat ooo before the makeup artist gets here she's on her way (hayfa aunty mami's Daughter) I will get food for you (ruqaiya aunty Mami's second daughter) toh I said as I sat down while ruqaiya went to bring the food from downstairs, well apparently the men slept in khalifah's parents house , ruqaiya came back with a plate of danwake for me , so I ate to my satisfaction, by 12:00 prompt the makeup artists came and they started with my face they were three in numbers , the professional did my face while the other one whose name was mama did for my cousins and makeup while the other one who was amama did for the elderly women ,  in an  hour my makeup was done and the house was bustling with guest , my cousins got their make up done and went downstairs to attend to the guest with the elders , while my friends brought out my gown and the makeup artist tied my headgear after that I was given a dress to wear , so I went into my walk in closet to Chang with the help of my friends, soon we were done and I was wearing a purple fitted gown with a side bow it looked so adorable then my friends put a purple alkyabba on me that has shiny stones and I was taken out to the garden where the baby shower was to take place , the place was decorated purple, the same color as my outfit, it had purple bows and balloons and a big balloon that says congratulations was hanged where I was going to sit , it was decorated with a big purple chair with a purple bow and there were steps to get there , there was also a purple carpet leading to the place I was seating , and there was also a place where there were different foods arranged and there were waiters standing there , also a place where chicken was roasted , when I was about to enter ihsan talked to the MC to announce my arrival while the DJ should play a song as I enter, Ladies and gentlemen please give a standing ovation for the mother to be as she walks down the carpet to her seat , DJ please blast us some music as the of the day walks in and the DJ played Jore by Adekunle gold kiss Daniel as I walked in I heard cheers and suddenly something was popped and glitters started pouring as I walked in to my seat , the song was still playing as I sat down and the DJ said that the guest should go get their foods while some that don't want to eat can come and snap pics with me , people started coming to take pics with me , some sat near me while some stood near me and at the back of me as BIG H and Nonso okoye kept taking pics of me like a celebrity, I kept snapping pics with people and I was tired of fake smiling walahi , then suddenly a small little girl around 4yrs came my way and sat on the chair near me , so I picked her up and said , hey cutie what's your name (me) my name ishannnn(ihsan said) nice name ihsannn am aunty amal(me) sorry please she's disturbing I will just take her some one said behind me , no I shook my head she's actually keeping me company I said , okay lemme go , okay I replied , I looked around and I saw my ayesha at the gate still receiving guests while ihsan was attending to guests that need her , soon the MC announced that it was time for the mother and mother in law and their friends to come and take a pic say their blessing and give gifts , so my mother appeared with a group of her friends and lifted her alkyabba for her and they muttered Masha Allah then each of them gave her wrapped gifts and she collected saying thank you and the photographer did not miss yo capture that moment , then her mother in-law appeared with her friends dancing her as they approached her , her mother in law opened her alkyabba and her friends also muttered masha Allah , they also have her their blessing , prayed for her and gave her gifts , when they were done she took pics with her friends and family later on she was called to the stage to dance with her two mothers , the played girls by falz , of Lagos by mayorkun , and other popular song then her friends and cousins joined and that's how they danced all day , when it was 5:00 amal was taken upstairs to take a bath and get ready for another makeup for her pregnancy photo shoot , manal took her clothes and put turaren wuta on the floor and put cabasa on top of it and put Amal's clothes there , then she took another kasko with turaren wuta and put an open chair in the middle and told amal to put on her hijab and Sit on the chair , Amal did as she was told , when she was done Ayesha brought a white robe for her to put on and called the makeup artist to start her work , Amal's photo shoot is suppose to start by 7:00 so amal had her ablution already so after her make up was done it was already 6:20 so she got up and wore a pink bubu and tied her headgear , she was suppose to go to BiG H studio for her photo shoot so she packed all the clothes she will be needing cause she's gonna Change there , she arrived downstairs and met plenty people in the palour and her mothers then she checked outside and the decorations are being removed so she told her mothers that she has a photo shoot and she manal and her friends left and they arrived at BIG H studio and she searched for her phone in her bag and called khalifah telling him she's already arrived and she's waiting for him , so they all went into the studio and met the receptionist and spoke to her and after making a phone call she led them in to BIG H office , hey henery (me) ahhh mrs amal your here so we're just waiting for your husband right ✅(big h ) yhh he's on his way I just spoke to him (me) okay I think you should go and change (big h) okay I said as I went to the ladies with the girls, firstly I wore a pink fitted gown with a plump hand and ihsan and manal helped me tie my laffaya while Aisha got the coal and asked where she can light it , when she came back she picked the humrah perfume in it and gave amal to hold for the picture, so they all stepped out and Amal's eyes met khalifah's own and she gave him a warm smile , babe (khalifah) he said as he walked over to hug her , how was the event , was it stressful (khalifah) yess habibi it was and am so tired and now I have to take a photo
