We were all done with the dinner, aisha went to wash the dishes along with hyfer when Abba suddenly called us all to share the gifts.

Aisha and I got the same gift as hyfer and husna also got the same, we all opened to see our various gifts to my greatest surprise it was a brand new phone iphone7

what!! I squeal in excitement placing my hand over my lips, for a few seconds i gave the phone a quick scan with a flip back and forth.

With joy i hugged Umma showing her, she smiled and said Allah yasa albarka(may Allah bless it)

I was surprise because I never knew she was gonna welkm my embrace but then she did. We all were happy and thank him for the lovely gift..

Ina tawa tsarabar(where is my own gift) Asked umma again.

Come with me to the room to receive yours he winked😉 .

Duka kuje kuyi sallar isha a kwanta saboda gobe da makaranta,(You should all go to bed) abba says referring to hyfer, husna, and aisha as he emphasized more on her who was writing her final exams.

Yeah and make sure you read before you all sleep umma added.

Good nyt abba, good night umma they all chorused heading to their various rooms.

.....................

I excitedly jump on the bed pressing my new phone, thinking of who to share the good news with, then I thought of a close friend while I was still in my senior year, I went to the rest room, took a shower, perform ablution and prayed, I quickly searched for my diary{were I wrote down some contact }. I instantly dialled maryam's number and so luckily for me, it went through, it rang twice before she picked and the conversion goes as such

Assalaamu alaykum she cooed softly

Waalaykumu's salaam Mary

Obviously, you don't remember me your friend, ever since we left school, our friendship has really drawn back.

I'm sorry Mary, you know abba's rule, we ain't allowed to hold a phone until we're done with our high school. Anyways how have you being?

I'm splendid, so how has life being with you?

Alhmd it's all thank to Almighty Allah

Girl! My wedding date has been fixed.

YAYA AMEERA! Aysha calls while knocking at the door!!

Whoa alhmd am very happy to hear that, Allah yasa albarka. Mary am gonna call you back aisha is at the door.

Yaya ameera! Budemun kofa(open the door sis) she repeat.

it's alright meera, looking forward to hearing from you, good night.

*********
What is it and why have you being knocking unresistantly i questioned plopping down on my cozy bed.

Sis am just excited about our new phone. She smiled widely perhaps not believing she could hold an iPhone now.

I'm also happy, so tell me Meya hanaki bacci (what stopped You from sleeping)?

Well, I haven't told You about the man that saved me earlier today, so why would I sleep after all he is the man i see....!

Obviously!! So tell me and yeah, am all ears.

Promise you won't laugh at my story?

Promise.

She heaved a deep breath with a smile and said" he is enchanting, while i was trying to escape those hooligans, i feel five times on my feet.

Subhanallah i said clutching my bouk in laughter

why are you laughing? What's funny She asked with a narrowed eyes

I'm sorry little diva, wearing a fake sad 😤 look, continue i said.

I will definitely, as i was running i felt i hit something really hard, a rock i could say but no, it was him! Wallahi it's him, my ever dream man, my love at first sight sis You needed to see him.

what?

I tilted my head to see what it was only to set my eyes on a very cute looking man standing with his arms crossed, the smell of his cologne alone is something worth driving every lady crazy. ya Allah!! She paused for a little while, looking up to me.

Ride on i said concisely

His voice blew me out of his admiration when he says "young lady why are you running? What is it that's chasing You? I couldn't reply due to my stress as I was exhausted and panting in fear.

I gasp because I know aisha was crushing, like she's got a big crush on a stranger. Sis are you listening at all?

Yes ride on i said again

He is extremely handsome i should describe him for you.

Well, He's tall and slender, he has a tan skin, lovely brown eyes, sharp cheek bone, and thin lips, he is prestigious really, his charisma made them disappear in no time cause they didn't even move an inch close to him.

I couldn't even appreciate him, would love to see him once more so as to thank him. She voiced out sadly.

I see, so you even had the time to stare at his handsome face like you said. That's amazing, now if you could excuse me! I wanna sleep.

You are always boring sis, you don't even entertain this kinds of gist, gosh would love to see the lucky charm whose gonna capture that heart of yours.

I couldn't answer her because I am just looking forward to furthering my education. However, I will always have her back.

Sis saida safe tunda kin koreni(good night since you drive me away), good night aisha and ensure you say your prayers before going to bed.

Different thought running through my mind, the dream i had earlier, thinking of what the future may install for us and all that, before I knew, I slept off.. Good night
