CE FUT MON DESTIN

CHAPTER 3

Today is a new day. I get up from my bed that I love so much after my alarm clock rang and after thanking the Almighty for giving me back my soul after taking it.

It's 4:54 a.m. I wear a jogging tank top and leave to wake Alya up with water as usual then she follows me and pinches me wishing me a good day. She lives on the 4th floor and I, opposite her apartment. Each of us lives with his mother, logical right? There you said it.

Each of us does our own cleaning.

I finish around 05:20 and I leave on the terrace and I wait for Alya for our sport.

My mother will do it when she wakes up.

We finish around 05:45. I go to take a shower and do my ablutions at the same time and I go to wake up my mother to pray. We do the "Nafila" and read the Koran a little before the "fajr" prayer.

I'll give you until 7 a.m.

I wear blue jeans and a long black t-shirt plus sneakers.

I tie my hair in a bun. And wears a matching veil.

These days I am.....guesszzzz.....I am a Mechanic.

I take my bag and give my mother 5000 f and leave the house. I find Alya at the door, she was probably expecting me.

She also works as a nanny in a house. But I bet she'll get fired soon because she can't negotiate with kids.

She: thiiiiip, I've been waiting for you for minutes.

Me: yet it's always me who's waiting for you.

She: laylaa, the mythomaniac. She said with her hand over her mouth.

Me: okay, sorry. Let's go.Her: let's go!

We were walking quietly in the streets when a car parked. And guess who it is. Jamil's car, and there's also Aïcha in the car.

Aïcha: Hello woodcocks. You are harvesting new jobs mdrr. Are we taking you back?

Alya: rather than rotting in its streets than getting into this car.

Aïcha: you, you don't care about me at all but it's your.....uh the one you call your best friend who cares about me. Uuh Jamila right?

Me: how can you forget my name room is worth nothing, you who got me out of the university and the hospital.

Aïcha: it's worth nothing here it's you and you haven't seen anything yet Jadida.

Jamil: Aïcha, you're wasting your time trying to speak them.

Aisha: Jamila?

Alya: ah now you call him by his name? And your thing there you call your man tell him to take his eyes off Jamila.

I look at Aïcha who has quickly turned to Jamil and the latter who is looking at Alya all smiles. Surely proud of what she said.

I pull it and we resume our journey. Later, the car passes in front of us and Aïcha gives us her most beautiful middle finger.

Well let's say she's not normal.

Me: You shouldn't have said that

She:thiiip don't talk to me.

Me: but you know Aïcha well, she is capable of anything. And further....

She: shut up, we're going to be late.

I arrive at my place of work and Alya leaves on her side.

Me: Salam

Them: hello.

I'm the only girl here so no smiles or whatever.

I'm finishing fixing the car and it's 7 p.m. And the lady came back to take her gova.

Me: I finished my job sir.

He hands me a 10000f. Waw, he is generous with him.

Me: thank you but it's too much what you gave me.

Him: yes I know, but the car was too hard to repair. And this kind of work is not for a girl and masha allah, you are a strong girl.

Me: Thanks, I'm going.

Him: See you tomorrow.

I change and take my bag.

I was walking quietly but a car almost ran into me. My bag falls as well as all my papers.

I turn around and see a burgundy red Ford car. The same one I repaired.

The lady comes out and helps me put my papers in my bag and asks my forgiveness.

Her: ah you're the girl....

Me: yes that's me.

Her: I'm really sorry.

Me: It's nothing, don't worry.

Her: To make up for forgiveness, I'm going to take you home since it's getting late.

Me: but no.....

She: noon, she said surprised and holding one of my papers.

Me: what is it ma'am?

Her: you were doing......nutrition training and you work in this...

Me: Actually, I had to quit.

Her: But why?

Me: Just a misunderstanding.

She: But I need someone like you. A nutritionist what in my house. And I'll pay you all what you want. Come on, let's go up, I'll take you back.

Ohlala, she was sent by God or what. I am a very lucky person. Thanks my God.

I get on the passenger side and it starts.

Her: in fact, my daughter has migraines. And she doesn't take care of herself.

Me: do you have a daughter?

Her: yes, she is 15 years old.

Me: wow, you look very young.

Her: and yet I am 38 years old.

Me: my mother is also like you, one would say that she is 18 years old.

She: um! When I was younger, me and my best friend played sports and we were vegetarian. I continued my diet but I don't know about her.

Me: and where is she?

Her: Only God knows that. She said sadly.

Me: sorry for you ma'am.

Her: call me Aunt Nina. I am Nina Sylla enchanted.

Me: and me Jamila Fekir.

Her: you are not Senegalese?

Me: of course I am 100% the same. It's just that I took my mother's name. Her name is........

Her: and where is your father.

Me: he's dead. I lie.

Her: Oh I'm sorry.

Me: it's nothing.

She: Where do I go to find your house?

Me: You walk up to the painting then turn right.

She: okay. But do you want to work for me?

Me: who would refuse such a proposal. I would like to take care of your daughter. What's her name.

Her: it's Fatimata Sylla. But I warn you, she is very stubborn.

Me: so I could get along well with her because I'm not far from being stubborn.

And we started to laugh even more.

Her: but Jamila, I would like you to spend your nights there

Me: I will warn my mother inchallah.We arrive at the house and I go downstairs but first I give her my number so that she can tell me when to come and give me the address.

We kiss each other and I go home.

I hear the neighbors talking behind me saying something like "I'm sure she was off to be the w***e".

With their husband maybe,thiip. I hate them wallah.

I open the door with the doubles and find Mom watching TV.

I jump on her and she screams.

She: bagra (fat or greedy) goes.

Me: between me and you who is the bagra?

She: you

I get up and sit down.

Me: I took and I tell you what happened to me.

She: pray? Laylaaa, I zapped. Allahu Akbar, he will burn me.

She gets up running. Mdrr, she's crazy.

I take a shower and do my ablutions. I pay my debts to Allah, like I took what I had missed and then I took the timis prayer.

I wear a long flared dress and I join my mother.

She tells.

??:JAMILAAAA.

And boom one thing about me. I look and see Alya.

Me: no but seriously?

She gets up from me and goes to give my mother a very big hug, then it's Tati Ouma's turn, who comes all smiles.

Me/mah: explanation?

Alya: you see, when I was leaving for work, I passed by the spa. I walked quietly then I was pulled inside. I see a pretty lady but in panic mode then she explains to me that I have to take care of a certain Katy and it's urgent. I asked for an explanation and she said that the one who was supposed to take care of this Katy quit at the last minute and that she took the first one that passed and she fell on me. Since I was very good at beauty, I accepted but I told her that I would work here forever and she replied that she would be delighted.

I get up and take her for a long time in my arms while crying.

Mah/ta ouma:rhoooo stop shouting.

Mah: I'm happy for you my daughter. Alhamdulilah. But you shouldn't tell us something Jamila?

Me: of course, in fact *tells all*...and there you go, I'm going to work as a nanny in a house but like a little nutrition.

And then Alya pulls me and we were spinning screaming and this time it was everyone. And we end with songs and dances.

Alia: pause!

We all stop.

Alya: since Jamila is going to spend her nights there and that in our apartment there were and still are three bedrooms. How about Tati Fati coming to live with us. So me and Jamila each will pay half the rental.

Ta Ouma: but yes and Fatima you will be really alone here.

We look at me and my mom and we'd say it's a good idea.

Me/mah: Not a bad idea.

Alya: but Jamila we will really miss you.

Me: I will miss you too, but I will do everything to come here every weekend.

Mah: come on Ouma, we are going to prepare a good ordinary salad to celebrate.

They go to the kitchen.

Alya: do you know who my boss is?

Me: me maybe. Crazy how can I know.

Her: Jamil

Me: who is Jamil?

Her: Jamil, the guy at...

Me: what?? No but tell me that I'm dreaming.

She pinches me and now my cries are heard by everyone.

Her: there you go, you're not dreaming.

We were talking about everything and nothing when I received a message from an unknown number saying "Hi Jamila, it's auntie Nina, I wanted to tell you that you can come tomorrow and here is the address ******* **. Have a good night darling."

Alya: wahh she looks very nice.

Me: I'm not telling you that. How about we go for a walk and at the same time tell my ex-boss that I have to quit working there.

Alya: let's go. But they shouldn't be closing right now?

Me: no they work until 9 p.m.

Alya: MAH WE'RE OUT.

Mah: GOOD RIDDLE.

I don't answer him and we leave. It's around 8 p.m.

Me: laylaa, didn't we pray?

She: prayed what?

Me: Ichaa prayer.

Her:????

Me: why are you laughing?

Her: I'm in my period.

Me:thiiiiiiip

I go into the house then I take. Logic no.

I come out and find Alya on the phone laughing out loud.

It ends 5 minutes later and we take the path.

Me: was it?

Her: my boyfriend's father

Me: which one?

She: abdouMe: ah ok, and?

Her: her father, he says he wants me.

Me: mdrrr, and to say that he has 4 wives.

Her: and I know he has other girls

me: say yes

Her: You don't know me. I said yes and ate him half his money.

Then we hit me 5

Me: oh la michto

Her: and where is your Idrissa?

Me: oh he is fine

Her: do you like him?

me: too much

Her: watch out for guys Jami. I don't trust him at all.

Me: oh let me live. He's the first man in my life. And it's not you yourself who told me to live my life. And I believe that he is sincere.

Her: if he isn't, I'll kill him then I'll make ground meat from his heart that his mother will eat.

Me:????

Her: I'm sincere dh, if someone hurts you it's like me that they do it.

Me: which means you are me, I am you.

She: and no one leaves without the other.

Me/her: wahh we haven't forgotten our motto.

Then we started laughing harder.

We arrive later at our destination and I tell the boss that I have to stop because I have found another job and he replies that it doesn't matter. Of course it doesn't matter.

It is now 9 p.m. and we are still in the streets of Colobane and everything is calm. Mdrr, the inhabitants are always afraid.

Me: I seriously want to do something crazy at least one last time.

Alya: mhhhh, like throwing firecrackers into a house.

Me: more precisely in that of Fama.

Fama is a neighbor who really hates us because we never leave her in peace. But she's looking for it huh, she's just lying about us and saying we're w****s and all that.

We go buy firecrackers and throw them in his house and go we run.

Later we hear him shouting behind us. Mdrrr, we had a good laugh.

We run until we hit someone. We are dead.

I raise my head and see Omzo and Kheuch.

Kheuch: but why are you running

Omzo: dumb why are you asking? All their lives are just nonsense.

Heuch and omzo from where are the first members of the g**g that we have known. If you remember correctly.

Alya: ohlala we missed you.

Them: you girls too.

Me: come on let's go, I have one of his hollow.

Kheuch: what's the food?

Alya: ordinary salad

Omzo: you like salad too much.

Me: It's good for your health.

Kheuch: let's go to the dibiterie and order some meat.

Alya: we will never eat money that comes from you.

Kheuch: why?

Me: but it's haram it's stolen money.

Omzo: every day you repeat that

Alya: rhoo come rk and eat salad otherwise fitcher s**t.

Seydou: big cow.

Me/alya: who's the fat cow?

them: you

They run and we chase them home. Arrived, they hide behind mom and your ouma.

Me: sissies that you are.

Alya:thiiiip

After we eat in a good mood, we discuss and they leave.

We all watch a theater of “sanekh” and go to bed.

Ellipse the next day.....

End of the chapter

Don't expect anything out of the ordinary. This is just the beginning. I SAID THIS IS ONLY THE BEGINNING. I even know it sucks
