Now Afeeyah must learn to live with a man she still sees through the lens of childhood... While Afdal fights to unbury a love he buried long ago. This isn't a fairy tale. This is faith, family, and a marriage born from chaos. This isn't the marriage she wanted. But maybe... it's the love she needed.

A few minutes into the walk, I heard footsteps shuffling behind me. I tensed up and halted in my tracks. My heart began to pound violently in my chest. I felt too afraid to even do anything. I stayed glued to my spot, but that didn't stop the footsteps from approaching. Mustering all of the courage left in me, I spun around and to my utmost horror, two men - more like thugs were standing just few inches away from me. Ya Allah, please protect me! I don't want to die like this. I spun back around and started walking, my pace increasing rapidly. "Hey! Where the f*** do you think you're going, bit**" One of the men slurred. By the tone of his voice, I could tell he was tipsy or high. The rate of my fear intensified. MANAL ❤ ©2019

"I mean... you should address me as Yaya Yusuf. It shows respect in our Hausa tradition." She blinked, then nodded slowly. "Okayyy. Yaya Yusuf. Where are we going?" I smiled a little. "We're going to a boutique. Or would you prefer we go to a café? It's your call." She thought for a moment, looking out the window again. Then she said, "I'd like to go to the biggest library in Kaduna...Kashim Ibrahim Library." I glanced at her, surprised. "A library? Seriously, Aisha? You want us to go to a libra..."
