We entered the parlour hand in hand with him, aunt was alone because uncle left two days earlier.
  " I don't know what is wrong with you humairah how many times do I have to tell you to do sallama before entering the house?"
  " I did,nah"the smile on my face disappeared,while I said the words.
  "Perhaps I was deaf when you did yours since I heard  faruq's own."she sounded annoyed and also tired of my behaviour.
This time around I poked out my mouth while faruq made for a couch adjacent to aunt's and sat relaxing his hands on it.
" Allah ya shiryeki, go and remove your uniform". She eyed me and I ran up the stairs.
"Make sure you pray before coming down" aunt voice was distanced and also cool, as if she wasn't the one that was annoyed because of my behaviour earlier.
   I came down with the chocolates faruq bought for me"aunt look : faruq bought it for me I sat next to faruq who was opening the warmers in front of him while aunt arranged the plates.
" Ya faruq,humairah"she turtored keeping a plate in front of me.
  " Ya faruq" I repeated the word quietly, knowing the conversation will not continue until I repeated my knew word(although i sometimes call him faruq)
     Aunt was quite throughout the dinner while I and faruq had a rap, most of the conversation was about how calm he used to be when he was my age.she left for her room immediately when the dinner was over leaving the two of us alone"give me my chocolate"
  "Which chocolate, you are the one that bought it for me, I will only shared the one uncle gave me with you not yours"
  "But cutest we bought four;his eyea were wide,two yours and two mine,okay?".he said
    "I thought they are all mine"I frowned my face.
    "No,two yours,two mine"
  "I won't give you" I said as I hid the hand holding the chocolate at my back,my mouth poked out"
  " It's Okay! I guessed i have to take it myself" he smiled brightly showcasing his white teeth. He started tickling me.
lallema yarinyar Nan!Ashe kina da wayo.he said because I held the chocolate so tight.
      Stop it!am not yarinya, you can't tickle me, I'm in jss one, stop it ya faruq I was giggling too hard that I couldn't stop him.

" You don't have to worry I will be good" I said removing his hand off me.
"Have you take medicine?" His eyes filled with worries "nooooo!" I dragged the O " you know how much I hate medicine I will be fine"a smile was forced on my face.
" Bawani you will be fine, you have to take medicine, I will just keep my trolley and we will go to hospital,okay?
