FRACTURED BONDS

Assalamualaikum Meenah,what are you doing? Waalaikum Salam Abba, where have you been? Anyways, Take this hot tea,stretching my hands to handle it over to him. I'm making breakfast for the kids before they leave for school. I added but turned to see that he already left and I was talking to a shadow. Lol! Mummy, Mummy o! Please have you seen my socks? Nafisa asked, looking at her and I replied, It is on my head, I answer as an African mother that I am. 'Oya' hurry up and leave. Where's Ameer, Muneera go and call your brother for me. I ask after My first child,Ameer. Mummy, "Brother Ameer has left already" Muneera came back not seeing his brother. Mummy we'll hit the road now, we are running late for school, bye-bye. Nafisa and Muneera waved their hands while leaving, I watched them and sigh "they're older now and I don't need to take them there". Although the school was very close to our House like A 5minutes walk will do. It seems that I'm left all by myself alone,I mean, that's the life of a housewife,after all when her husband is out and the children are at school. Fortunately for me I wasn't sitting like an object at home, I had my little (SUGAR) business that fetched me some change to Take care and support my family. We don't have much to put in our mouth and clothe ourselves beautifully But We were always contented and grateful to what Allah offers us.
