Finally, the anticipated day has arrive; the wedding day, the day fatima and Fareedah will permanently be called Mrs khalid and Mrs Mubarak, the day they will be conveyed to their new home respectively.

Around 4:30 am, Reedah and her friends were wake by some of her aunt to come down for the ritual bath which is usually done to every nupe lady who is get marry for the first time.

They took her to the backyard of the mansion. They brought a seat for her and immediately sat her down on it afterward. An old woman said a prayer on her head and pour some water on her hair before directing any of her bestfriend to come forward and break the mud pot into pieces in front of the bride. Noor was the volunteer and immediately she break the pot every body cheer and kept repeating Allahu Akbar. Reedah couldn't control her tears again, as she cried loudly, every one was touch by her outburst some even cry together with her. She was given a kettle to made her ablution and when she finish she still couldn't stop crying. Aunty salamatu couldn't even stop her own tears too, she went forward and hugged her, consoling a bride at this moment is the most difficult thing to do ( every Nupe bride surely understand this feeling. Who agree to it?).

She was taken to the upstairs and was asked to take a hot shower and change.

Few minute later after she was done, Aunty salima came in and took her to every room in the mansion to greet. Advise were given to her differently and all she could do was cry through out the ups and down. Her eyes was puffy and red from all the tears.

As early as 8am, Fareedah's mansion was booming with a lot of people, from different Angle. Even the people they least expected were around. Their mum close friend aunty sarah and her daughter favour were not left out as they all come to witness the day. Due to a lot of people that came to show their happiness with them today the empty space of their missing once were occupy for the main time. They never expected half of the people present in fareedah wedding to day because their parent were no more but they all prove them wrong as the big mansion today was full with their relative,neighbours and family friends. Though nobody ever no what they went through because they believe their father left a lot for them and their uncle also as a lot to take care of them not knowing it was the opposite of their thought.

Backyard was turn to kitchen, as caters dish out different variety of food and people kept going up and down to serve them self with their choice. Bakers were in the main kitchen doing there job together with the drink servers.

At the upstairs was the bride, glowing from all the indication of her body which was repair. She was looking so beautiful in her attire. Her hand and leg were all glowing with the beautify henna design. And it make her look so breathtaking.

"There already coming for the wedding fatiha" Noor said.

"Oh my God! You need to see your husband right now Reedah, his looking so masha Allah."Noor comment, still peeping out through the window.

"Noor please just cover that curtain" Reedah beseech.

"Why, you jealous I'm starring at your husband?" She teased.

'You're not serious, you're free to stare just cover that curtain" she repeat.

"Yes ma'am." She response sarcastically and do as she said.
