I finished my chores on time and prepared to leave for home. I went to hajiya's room to check if she still needs anything and luckily for me she have nothing left to do.

Mom was cooking outside the room i greeted and settled on a wooden stool beside hers, when the food was ready we ate and talked about some happy moments from the past.

THE NEXT DAY***

I was cleaning the parlor then Halima entered with her friends next she said "hey bring drinks for us in my room and make it snappy", i hate it when I'm being addressed like am an object or so but what can i do. I dropped the tray of drinks on the bedside table i was about to leave when i heard one of them say to Halima "isn't she too beautiful to be a maid" with that i closed the door and went to continue my work.

Later that day Hajiya called me in her room she gave a list, "go to the market and get all that's written there and come back as quickly as you can so u can go to mama hauwa's house she said she has something to give me".

After keeping the things i brought in their rightful place i went to mama hauwa's house i met her sitting in the parlor, she asked me to wait as she went to her room and came out with a bag she gave it to me i bid her goodbye and left. I gave hajiya the bag and she beamed which shows that she likes whatever was in the bag. That day i went home feeling tired and sour in my whole body i prayed took pain relieve and slept.
