Zahras P. O. V.
My best friend is getting married to my brother, am so ecstatic about this news, we would soon become sisters, i dial her number she isn't picking, on the second ring she picked the call Salam alaikum Zee she said, Wa alaikum Salam sister, when were you going to tell me i queried her, please don't deny that you don't know what talking about Fati, is that why you are not picking my calls.
She sighed and said calm down Zee did you take too much sugar today, i replied no why do you ask, she said its because i know that when your sugar level is high you normally blab a lot, i hissed and said no i didn't take any sugar today, am just happy, so don't change the topic sister in law, she said Zahra yes am not going to deny it, am getting married to your brother that i havent seen or known, am scared of getting to know him because i don't know his reaction when he sees me, i replied Fati calm down please don't cry, yes i know this is far from your dream of your love relationship but at least don't run away from it okay.
I asked her when are you coming to Kano i missed you, she replied i will come but that's after i meet with your brother because my dad said he is coming to Abuja i really don't know when, so i think after the meeting i will come to Kano at my brother's, i replied okay i can't wait to meet you i have loads of gist for you, and please whatever happens when you meet him dont take it to heart, you will gist me everything when you come, we chatted some more and bid each other.
Fatimas P.O.V.
After the call with Zahra, i cried since the news of me getting married i have being so emotional, and i don't want anyone seeing me crying because i feel am showing my weak side to them which i hate, i went to the toilet to wash my face and perform wudu, to pray to the Almighty to ease my pain after praying i was still on the prayer mat when i heard someone knocking who's there i asked, it's me Najiba, come in, aunty good evening my sister said, how are you, am fine where's your handbag am referring to her twin Najib they always fight especially when one is sent on an errand the other wants to go and do it.
She smiled he's downstairs with mum, dad said i should call you, okay am coming she replies aunty we are going out with ya Salim should in case you didn't see us when you come downstairs, when did ya Salim arrive i asked, i can't believe he's here and he didn't call me, she replied he said he wants to surprise you, please don't tell him i spoilt the surprise by telling you, okay girl your secret are safe with me, i won't say a word, thanks sis you are the best, bye see you when we come back, Bye and with that she left my room.
I fold my praying mat before going downstairs, i saw my dad and mom in the living room i greeted them and then my dad said Fati what's going on, baba nothing, you look slim are you starving yourself to death before your marriage, no sir i replied, he said good make sure you eat, i don't like the way am seeing you and i want to inform you that your fiancé is coming to see you this weekend so prepare, eat and have enough sleep am i clear, i sighed and said yes sir, this is why i love my parent, no matter their discipline they still care about us.
I was brought out of my thoughts when my dad stood up and told my mom he's going to the mosque to pray she said okay, once my dad left, my mom said Fati Naam Ummi, do you want to kill me she asked, i replied no Ummi why do you say so, she said you have shut us all out, you hardly come outside, you don't bake for us anymore, the worst of all, you didn't confined in me, am always here to give you a shoulder you can cry on.
I started crying my mum hugged me, all she told me is true i don't care about their own well-being while they kept thinking about mine, she said it's okay to be this weak Fati you become stronger and better as time goes on, its not easy but you have to make it easy, we all need the old Fatima we all need her back, she was also crying i smiled and said the old Fatima is not gone Ummi, am right here am really sorry if i made you worried i promise to change hence fort.
