Munash' POV

Coming back to Nigeria has been very hectic, we arrived Nigeria on Tuesday afternoon and was picked by Faisal my father's Nigerian driver. I never knew that we will be living in a  very big mansion, the mansion is so beautiful and elegant,  and so is the inside. Its have two main paulos, a very big kitchen, the dinner area, four master bedroom, two guest room inside and I heard Abba saying that there BQ also outside.
As I entered my  new room, I was mastering every corner of its, it not like my old one  back  in Toronto but its large  enough  and well decorated with my favorite colors that is pink and white. We have been receiving visitors since we get back  from relatives and friends welcoming us back home to our mother land. My cousin sister  Aisha's wedding is come up in two weeks time insha Allah and Abba and Umma has join the preparation, Me on the other hand, I don't want to join in any ceremony or celebration, all i want to do is mourn my late husband in a quiet and peaceful environment where i can cry  my sorrows away, but that will not happen as Aisha has ask me to be among her bridesmaids and  i can't say no to her even if i want to. Aisha have been my best friend since where we children she is the closes to me  among all my cousin, she shared all my happy moment with me, on my wedding day with Umar she was my baban kawa so the list I could do is be there on her most happiest day of her life, apart from Aisha   Abba  to wanted me to mingle with relatives to make up for the times we were away and to get to know each other even due I visited Nigeria when I was 18years and then I get to know a lot of our relatives. I left our house yesterday to my uncle's house where the preparation is holding and Aisha to has move there with others, the house belong to Uncle Mutala the eldest of my father's family, its has been tradition to hold every marriage ceremony at his house. I was laying on the bed in our room   that i am sharing with the bride to be with two of her friend Amal and Amrat when Aisha entered to informed me that the professional hair stylist that came all the way from Maiduguri the state capital of Borno state has arrived and all bride maids including the bride are  called outside to do they hairs, after she informed me she left while  i was  still laying on the bed it was after hearing  the call for prayer that made me leave the bad  and that why am now laying on the praying met after saying my prayer, I have a lot on my mind right now I don't know if I will be able to adjust to living in Nigeria but I know  have on other opinion that is obvious "haba kawa why are you still here wouldn't you do you hairs" that's Aisha's voice so I lift my head from the met while I rest it on my palm with the help of my elbow on the met to look at her direction as she was standing at the door " I will, has the hair stylist finish for other?" she sight before come in and sit at the edge of our bad " well for once I through you will refuses to, but since you will am glad. As for the stylist she is waiting for you"  I sit up removing my hijab and place it on the praying met while I stand up to go out and meet the stylist as I take my Veil  that was on the bad, as I reach for the door handle  Aisha  interrupt  me saying " Munash tomorrow we will be  going out  to fashionistas together with my groom and his friends to get our outfit ready for the dinner party " I just glance that her  without saying anything I move out the room, she don't need my answer as  my eyes says it all am not coming with them and I don't know if I will be able to go to the dinner party.
