Prologue

14th August 1996.Kano, Nigeria.9:13 pmThe cold humid air of early august blows around the hospital corridor, sending shivers down the spine of those waiting along the labour ward. Three, out of the four people waiting were seated, while one of them kept pacing to and fro. An unreadable expression on his face, tension ebbing from his body, a giddy wave of exhaustion shuddered through his core."Bello, get hold of yourself and be seated, please!" His elder brother Alhaji Sa'eed said."I can't, Brother. I can't be at ease without knowing how my wife is doing in there. Alhaji Bello said his voice was emotional and crystalline as he replied as if his puppy-like face will save his wife from what she's going through."Sit down and pray for her. That is the only solution right now, this pacing of yours is pissing me off" Alhaji Sa'eed scolded him.

2nd May, 2007Ten Years Later. Abuja, Nigeria. "Ga Aljanin nan zuwa (A jinn is coming)" Safinah whispered into the ears of her sleeping sister Sakinah “Get up quickly kis kis, you are yet to say your prayers and he's going to take you away" she added. Sakinah yelped and jumped up, it was already past 11 pm and it had rained heavily that day which make it possible for everywhere to be dark. Safinah and Nafisah couldn’t help but burst into a peal of mischievous laughter seeing the scared expression on their sister's face. "Where is the jinn? Please tell it to go back I'll pray" Sakinah said trembling. "Well, you're praying isha very late, so it'll come over and punish you," Nafisah

The night was silent, the sound of the night whispers the sound of sleeping ghosts and the wind blowing. It's already 9:00 O’clock and mama Rabi was yet to be back, Habeeb and Amirah (their house help) were the only ones at home with the triplets. For Sakinah, this was the worst day of her life. She couldn't even seat upright and Yaya Habeeb had to carry her back to her room claiming that she hit her leg and can't walk. Habeeb, knowing a few things about drugs gave her some drugs and ask her to sleep...not forgetting to threaten her again. She closed her eyes and try to sleep only to wake up with a jolt and the fear that Habeeb is coming back any moment from now to repeat what he did to her a few hours ago. The emotions knotting her chest were so many, so incongruous. Habeeb didn't even consider h

10years later. Sakinah checked her Mickey Mouse wristwatch which was a gift from Baba, last year when he went to Dubai. What is wrong with Nafisah? She had been standing outside their department for over an hour and Nafisah hadn't shown up, she hated waiting. She was claustrophobic because of the giant bag of gaze and looks on her, some couldn't even hold their horses and had to approach her, but Sakinah Had always been the same....she had developed a Phobia to guys and it still hadn't changed. Mama Rabi, being the only person Sakinah was so close to tried her best but it had been to no avail. Sakinah could no longer trust or talk to her father freely.

"Exactly, because you have me already and we're soon getting married!". Habeeb said, entering the living room. Sakinah quickly withdrew from where she was sitting down. Hearing Habeeb's voice always sends shivers down her spine. His voice only could cause her pain even without him touching. Wild dreams of Habeeb chasing her, sexually abusing her, making her cry and yelp in anguish. Sometimes, she'd make up her mind to tell her mom or Mama Rabi about her plight, but whenever she recalled those threats by Habeeb, she gets scared and would promptly change her mind about narrating her ordeal with anyone. "Yaya Habeeb!" Nafisah jumped up happily, before engulfing him in a hug "We missed you so much, how was your trip?" "Exhausting sis....I'm jet legged" he replied before falling wearily into the couch bes

She tried opening her eyes but they were very heavy and she couldn't open them, even thou she wanted to. She tried again for the third time and luckily for her, she opened the eyes only to quickly shot them back because of the light. She saw blurry images of people standing and sitting beside her, but she couldn't point just who and who was around her."She's awake" she heard a deep masculine voice saying."Oh, yaa Rabb! Ma shaa Allah. Are you okay dear?" Mama Rabi asked sitting beside her and taking hold of her right hand.This time around, she opened her eyes slowly and scanned around the room.

Mama Rabi asked again squeezing her hands.She shifted her gaze to mama Rabi and gave out
