Hadiza in Lagos(Unedited)

EPILOGUE

Luck was on my side after I finished my youth service.My mother's friend who promised to help truly fulfilled his promise.I was working in an hospital which gave a good pay.One day at the reception who I saw as I was about walking into my office shocked me.

"Corper Audu?",I said as I moved closer to him.

"Ahhh ahh wait Hadiza?".

"Yes from Kano"

We hugged even though it seemed awkward.He could still recognize me as I could.Seeing him inside the hospital with a woman made me sense that was his wife.I greeted her politely and he quickly introduced her as his elder sister that they came to see the gynaecologist in office.

"Ohh that should be me you are here to see then".

"Ahhh wow Hadiza you work here?",he said as he looked perplexed.

"Yes all thanks to Allah".

"That's very good oo,my sister's husband is not in the country so I decided to come here with her since I was on leave",he said.

"Let me quickly attend to her then we will talk later".

I spoke to the receptionist to allow her come in after 10 mins.When I was done with her,I came out to see Corper Audu and explained some things to him after we exchanged numbers.

****  **** ****

"You wont believe who I saw today Stella",I said to Stella over the phone.

"Ehnehn who?",she asked impatiently

"Just guess now ahhh".

"Is it Anthony or Raymond?",she asked.

"No oo ahnahn...you remember that Corper I told you about that time back in Kano now?He came to the hospital today".

"The one that used to send Hauwa to you?".

"Ehnehn now..I couldnt believe my eyes until I moved closer to him o",I said.

"It's a lie ooo ehh what did he come and do?Did he bring his wife or he is the sick one?",she said laughing.

I explained everything that transpired between I and Corper Audu to Stella.

"So na so Hadiza holy holy go soon marry",she said laughing out loud.

"Ahnahn Stella which one be marry for all the things I talk now".

"No now after exchanging numbers that is the beginning of a relationship".

"It is friendship not relationship and...",I stopped in the middle of my sentence when I noticed another call was incoming.

"Hello Hadiza",Stella said and brought me back to reality that I was on a call with her.

"Sorry Stella I will call you back,I have an incoming call".

"Ok but if you call back and I dont pick that means I have slept",she said.

"Alright".

Immediately she dropped the call,I picked and heard the voice of whom I spoke to earlier on in the day.

"Saanu Hadiza".

"Hello",I replied in English.

We spoke for almost an hour making me forget I had work the next day.

"So what will you be doing this Saturday?",he asked.

"Ehmm....probably stay at home and help my mother out in the house".

"Do you think you can have time for us to ehmm you know see the movies together?".

"I will text you if I will be free".
