"Yes, Amma the room is so great, I love you!" I shouted through the phone.
"Masha Allah" she said laughing.
"Yaya halima!" Hadiya shouted.
"Yes baby, how are you?" I asked.
"Am fine, I miss you so much" she said stressing her voice.
"I miss you more" I replied.
"Did you see my snap?" I asked.
"Yes I did, you are a princess!" She exclaimed.
"I wish I was with you" she said in a sad voice.
"Aww, baby you will be here too, soon." I replied holding back tears.
"Maybe, Amma is not ready to let me go, she loves me more" she said laughing out loud.
"Oh so Amma sent me away" I said  laughing.
"No I didn't!" Amma shouted.
"Yes I know that" I replied.
"Bye, I have to go, I need to arrange some things"
"Okay, bye".
" love you".

I arranged my cloth on the cupboard and decided to take a nap before ordering for food.
.....
"Aysar, Is it you?" I asked walking close to him in  room all white making my eye screech.
"Yes, Am here" he replied opening his arms for a hug.
Before I could reach in his arms, Aysar disappeared.
"Aysar?,Aysar?,Aysar?" I shouted crying out loud making my stomach turn in circle's.

"Ma'am?!" A voice far deep called.
I opened my eyes slowly to see it was all a dream. I quickly set up right and adjusted my head bonnet.
"Are you alright?" A guy holding a plate of food. Food service.
But I didn't order food.
"Yes" I replied wiping off sweat on my forehead.
"Are you sure?" He asked leaning closer to me.
"How did you get in" I asked dragging up my blanket up.
"I had a spear key" he replied holding up a key to my face.
"Okay, Am fine you can leave now" I said pointing at the door.
"You were shouting, Are you sure you are okay?" He said adjusting his tray on his palm.
"Yes"
"Thank you" I added.
I watched him leave, slowly closing the door beside him.
Urgghh, Am hungry "I  signed.
I decided to take my map and head outside to search for a restaurant instead I found a bread shop close by. All the restaurant are a 50km drive from the hotel I can't walk all the way.
I walked down the hotel street in my black and ash hoodie with a black sweat pants. I enjoyed walking in the lonely street of London.

"Bread shop" a big sign board displayed on a pretty building with flower coverage. I slowly opened the door.
"This place smells heavenly"
I could live here forever. I slowly walked up to the counter.

A Lady in her early thirties smiled at me and said"what do you want to order?".
"Milk bread" I replied smiling at her back.
Milk bread was always my favourite.
"Okay, you may sit there and wait for your order" she said pointing at the table next door.
I went up to the table and grabbed a chair. Enjoying the smell and the view of the bread shop my mind was at rest until I remembered the dream I had early.
"I wish Niddiya and Aysar were with me" I thought taking out a deep breath.
Ping!! The bell rang. My order is ready. I walked up to the counter and collected my bread.
"How much ma'am?" I asked
"3 ponds" she replied.
"Okay" I replied reaching the back pocket of my pants.
"Here" I said handing her over 3 notes.
"Thanks" she replied with a broad smile on her face.
I walked back slowly to the hotel holding on tight to my bread. I walked in the hotel room to see the receptionist walking towards me.
"Miss, there is someone waiting for you" she says leaving in a hurry.
"Who?" I asked. But she left.
I walked faster than I did to the corridor peeping to see who it was . A man in his late sixties standing by my door with a folder in between his arms blowing his nose into a handkerchief.
Eww.
I slowly walked up to him holding on tight to my bread.
"Good day sir" I greeted with a smile.
"Halima!" He exclaimed.
How did he know my name?!.
"Yes" I replied
"Am Mr. Salt" he said reaching for a hand shake.
Salt?.
"Hey" I said raising my eyebrows.
"Am your guardian supervisor" he said adjusting his glasses which was fixed on his nose.
"Okay" I stammered.
Amma didn't tell me anything about a guardian supervisor.
"I see you got bread" he said laughing.
"Yes" I replied smiling at him.
"Do you mind if I go in" he said.
Is it safe?
"Yes, sure" I  replied.
I used my card and pushed the door slowly to see the mess I made in my room. I didn't allow any room service into my room because I was a bit scared.
"Sorry about the room" I said dropping the bread on the table.
"No worries" he replied laughing.
I quickly went up to the fridge to get a juice.
"Juice?" I asked
"No, thank you"
"Am just here to give you your admission letter and your school website password".
"You will start school the day after tomorrow, I will be here in the morning to take you there" he said getting up for the chair.
"Okay, thank you sir" I replied walking him to the door.
"Good night" he said walking away.
I slammed the door and turn to look at the mess I made again.
I quickly arranged the sitting room the bedroom and sat for a movie.
Slowly munching on my bread and juice. Switching channels searching for an interesting movie to watch.
AGKtv a channel showing Korean movies.
Lee Minho!! I squeaked making me spill my juice on the carpet, I quickly wipe it off with a tissue.
"Legend of the blue sea"
I have missed many episodes already but I managed to get the series.

Its 8:30PM, my body was all weak, I took a quick bath and went to bed.
