We are getting there......

***

Haneesa watch as the phone ring for the thousand time in an hour,

She was tempted to answer but the call but Adda's email blinked in her mind continuously. She was not allowed to answer the call.. At least not now.

When the call finally ended, she quickly dialed Adda's number and she picked up after the third ring.

"Hello, it is Bahiyya" a sweet little voice spoke from the other line making all Haneesa's worries vanish for a moment.

"Aww sweetheart! How are you?"

"Oh aunt Haneesa, I am fine. Where are you? I miss you. You missed our birthday aunt Haneesa, it was so fun.. Daddy brought us two princesses cakes, I and Hadiyya. It was delicious! Don't worry I kept some for you and your baby.." She blabbered making Haneesa shock, how much of the twins childhood did she miss exactly?

"...I lost my tooth day before yesterday, mommy said I should keep it under my pillow for the tooth fairy. Did you know how much I got?" The girl continued with much enthusiasm.

"No. How much?" She played along.

"Uncountable" she laughed "We found an atm card and daddy took me shopping. I brought many things."

"Wow, that's so cool. What about Haddiya"

"She lost her tooth today, when I lost my tooth she was so sad and she was even crying cause the tooth fairy gave me lots of money but today she is happy cause the tooth fairy will give her her own share"

"Bahiyya! Who are you talking to!? Is that my phone? This girl bring it here before I come and meet you" she heard her sisters voice in the background and after shuffling stuffs she finally heard Adda voice clearly.

"Baby love, how are you? Sorry about Bahiyya. She talks too much nowadays for my liking" she could hear the chunking of vegetables her sister was in the process of making while she talk to her.

"Adda I'm not fine at all, he has been calling all day."

"That isn't a problem habibty. Block him!" She spattered bitterly.

"What!?"

"Yes Haneesa you heard me right"

"Adda what are you doing please? What is going on over there? Why should I ignore him for God's sake? I love that man adda, he is my husband" she cried frustrated.

"Which dirty husband Haneesa?" Adda hissed venom leaking from her voice.

"Adda please!" She yelled unknowingly. "Oh My God! I'm sorry I didn't mean to yell at you, it's just- God please tell me what is going on?!"

"It's okay, I guess the pregnancy is just tiring you out. That's how it gets when your in your last stage"

"Please stop avoiding my question" she snapped annoyed.

"Haneesa you don't understand that man is nothing but a betrayer. He doesn't deserve you baby love"

Now her heart was pounding wildly against her chest, "What did he do this time?"

"His other wife has given birth to a baby girl" Adda confessed.

"But he has divorced her"

"Not anymore Haneesa.."

"Did he...?" She trailed off scared of her reply. Her body was trembling vigorously.

"Yes, he took her back wallahi!"

"Innalilahi wa'ina ilaihi rajiun. Oh okay, I'll talk to you later adda, my regards to Maami."

"Haneesa don't! Please! Do not overstress yourself, think about your baby and your health"

"I'm having a massive headache by Allah, I need a minute to myself. Goodbye!" she end the call before sprawling on the bed in nothing but heartache and jealousy.

Here she was in another country, away from her husband while he is there with another woman living his best life.

He heart was bleeding nonstop, she was in distress. She could feel her baby crawling from beneath her yet she made no efforts to help the little one.

She was in shambles!

🍀🍀🍀

Maami effortlessly walk down the hallways of her home that scented of turaren wuta, she had been having visitors troop in and out of her house lately just so they could pay their condolence once again, she had finished her takabah. She was now officially a divorcee who could get married again but the love she has for her better half won't even allow her to think of it.

"Maami I've made the tea" Nana, her new maid said as she walked towards her with a tray of mini breakfast.

"Thank you Nana, now go and make sure all the guests coming in have been served food. There is more masa and miyan taushe in the kitchen, and make sure the hot koko gets round" she ordered.

"Okay Maami" and with that she walks away.

She had been tired and annoyed at everyone who came by, she wanted to be alone but people just won't get it. Some even came for the food! SubhanaAllah.

After composing herself, she knocked on the door of the room and after some seconds the door flew open.

"Assalam Alaikum"

"Maami, you didn't have to!" he sigh as he watch her enter his room with the tea and muffin.

"I had to! Now stop complaining and eat!" She commanded sitting on his bed. He had locked his self in since he returned home, a day ago.

"Maami"

"Mukhtar" He had no option but to sit beside her and force the food down.

"How are you my baby?" She asked as he drops the empty mug down.

"How are you too Maami?" He shot back and she swat his hand away.

"Your level of disrespect has reached this point right?" she scold swatting his hand.

"Nothing like disrespect Maami, I just asked a simple question and you are panicking! How are you? Reply with fine, not fine but here you are beating me!" He whined.

"Silly boy. I have to get hack to my visitors, now get some rest" She smiled standing up.

"Is she gone?" he asked the question that has been on his mind. Maami sigh before turning to meet him remorsefully, "yes. You broke her Mukhtar"

"Good" he replied contented "now she will know how it feels to be abandoned by your close one"

"Mukh-"

"Maami you won't talk me out of this.. Please"

"I'll let you be but just know they will be a day you will regret ever letting her go"

"I'd rather die than witness that day" he spat venom leaking from his voice. With one painful look at him she exit the room.

"What is this Mubarak?!" Maa asked shoving the white card towards Adda Safiya so she could take a glance at it.

"Invitation card" he answered adjusting his zanna bukar cap that was perched on his head.

"For?"

"SubhanaAllahi!" Mubarak it is this Friday! Next tomorrow you say!" Adda Safiya gasp while handing her immediate sister, Hadiza the card to see and Yusrah peeped over her shoulder trying to see what it was.

"Yes Adda,"

"Oh My God. Ya Mubarak!!!" Yusrah yelled cheerfully but the look Maa shot her made her keep shut.

"Mubarak what are you doing? Didn't I make myself clear?"

"Maa-"

"Is she more important to you than me?" She cut him off.

"It's nothing like that Maa. Maa I love her for the sake of Allah, I can't do without her Maa. This is a match that has already been made in heavens and I don't think there is anything you can to stop this union from happening" he spoke calmly.

"Can you do anything for this girl?"

"Yes Maa, Insha Allah"

"Even if it means to stop talking to your mother?"

Mubarak was dumbfounded,

That wasn't what he was expecting at all.

"Innalilahi wa'ina ilaihi rajiun. That is like asking me to choose between water and air and I need both to survive. Maa please don't do this to me" he beg falling on his knees.

"Maa please.." His sister Yusrah joined kneeling beside her brother.

"Please Maa.." Hadiza joined seating beside her.

"Since he really loves her let them be. She is a pious woman and also a keeper, she will take care of your baby Maa. That I can assure you" adda Safiya tried to convince.

All the sisters could see the love their brother have for Amtullah in his eyes and it would be disheartening if he didn't end up with her.

After a long session of debating in her head she finally gave into their pleas, "may Allah bless your union ango (groom)"
