We now live in a small room we rented from the money that mom had and kept some for feeding.
Few weeks later, i started working for the Ahmed(s) i never choose to do this but i had no choice i had to earn some money to cater for our needs. I have no qualifications to take up a better job because i just graduated from secondary school and dad also passed away within that period of time then university became out of the question. Mom being a full house wife at the time earned no money she stays home and spends the one dad gives her. Well all those are in the past now let's focus on the present.
I got ready for work in a rush i didn't bother to greet mom as she was sleeping and i don't want to wake her, it's a fifteen minutes walk from our house to the Ahmed's residence.
When i reached there i greeted the gateman and went straight into the house, i entered the kitchen there i met hajiya taking drink from the fridge i greeted her but as usual got no response only a stern look i took off my hijab and placed it safely somewhere then i started doing my daily tasks.
i began with sweeping the house , mopping the floors, washing the dishes and laundry then lastly arranged the rooms. I'm happy with my job because i'm able to spend some time with mother and also the pay is pretty good.
The only thing i don't understand is why hajiya dislike me, ever since alhaji brought me here she has been treating me unpleasantly sometimes she even threatens to reduce my salary.
The couple gave birth to three children two girls and a boy, one of the girls is studying mass communication in Ahmadu bello university the second one still attends secondary school while the boy is schooling in London.
