She wanted the ground she was on to open so it will swallow her whole and despite all that was happening around her, she couldn't even sit nor walked out of the hall. Jaafar was looking directly into her eyes, the kind of look that sent a shiver down her spine. The look he sent her was full of revenge and anger. What kind of an unforgiving person had she met in her life? If she knew he would be her lecturer she would've never made the mistake of talking back at him."Miss, kindly walk out of my class or else, I'll walk out myself." He assured, and Aisha found herself clearing her tears as she slowly walked towards the door. She knew he suggested he went out to show her how bad he wanted her out of his class. She wished she had never o

Under hypnosis, she felt as if someone was pulling a knife into her heart. And at some point, she felt as if it was a fire being burned into her heart. She had to wake up because the pain felt so surreal that tears started spilling out of her eyes before she even opened them widely. She began taking in the environment she was in, and it was a hospital. From the paintings to the bed she saw herself on, to the IV fluid that was attached to her body.As the tides of an ocean flow to the shore in rush, that was how all that destroyed her life in not less than an hour came back to her, and she didn't know when she screamed. She felt a scorching pain under her, and she knew she wasn't dreaming of being ra

Nasir walked out and Aisha walked to the bathroom after that. She washed her face before she walked after him, she knew Mama was waiting for them and it was time to meet their father. She had always loved a whole family, where you can have a father and mother all together. May be it was her dream being fulfilled, who knows? She saw them seated on the dining table and there was an elderly man seated too. Her whole body trembled, anxiety surged into her like the tsunami surged into an ocean. Numerous questions made a chaos of her brain, and the first question she was cleared of was; would he accept her?

Approximately, it was a six hours drive, from Bauchi to Katsina by road. They set out by 7am and were already at Katsina when the clock showed 1:34pm. All through the long journey, Aisha hadn't uttered a word, and it troubled Nasir. He felt as if there was something that was eating her up. And there really was, Abba. She shuddered at the conversation they had just before she walked out of the kitchen after they had their early morning breakfast.She was about to walk out of the kitchen when he entered, hushing an almost inaudible “Good morning,” she tried walking out of the kitchen when he called her name.

No matter how Aisha tried, Nasir hadn't glanced her a look when on their way back, and it bothered her that she felt like crying. She didn't know she was used to him, talking to him and all those stolen glances through the rear mirror until she had none on their trip back. Mama added more salt to the wound when she kept talking about how she was going to miss Aisha when she was away.It was dusk already when they arrived home and the house was empty and dry. They had their bathe and Aisha went out to the kitchen before Mama had the chance to. She came out and met her bringing out some recipes while there was a steaming meal on the cooking gas.
