HIS JEWEL

Aisha Aisha, Aisha when will you quit being this slogish and slowish soul fisabilillahi (for God's sake), I've been waiting here for almost 30 mins, but still you in there painting and printing your face,! who are you doing all the so called makeup for? My mom yelled I quickly pick up my veil and bag,putting on my baby red lips, for no matter what Hajia ma will say I most put it on, because I'm so much in love with it! Hajia ma kiyi hakuri (I'm sorry) just a minute I'm putting on my red lips please! Ah!! mama clamored holding her mouth, are you for sure telling me that? Okay I swear to God add a single minute In there and I will surprise you for wallahi you won't enter my car, you'll have to follow transport car, and guess it's under must you'll be going to abuja if you're breathing , whether you like it or not, because I've noticed you since yesternyt when I told you about going to abuja you seems not pleased! I'm not a fool to leave you under sakina's care whilst I was out of the country __ Before mama could utter more, I was out right in front of her and smile, I knew who raised me I whimper " And she hissed picking up her car key and bag, I'm not deaf yar'mama I can hear you, with that she exit the parlor! Malam shehu, Malam shehu zo kabude min gate dinan (come and open the gate for me) mama yelled, And within a minute Malam shehu was in front of the gate, he run to mama's front bending down with respect "hajiya I thought you ain't traveling anymore, when I saw the time ! already to 12 "he asked mama with due respect " Mama spare him a sweet smile and say "wallahi fa, wanted leaving katsina as early as 9:30 but your daughter here waste almost all the time, kasan yarda take (you know how she is) very slowish,! Malam shehu smile "hajiya aisha is a grown up lady now and you know girls of now are days always love to look beautiful and fanciable, so its her time ,beside ta iya samu mana dan siriki (she might bring us a son-inlaw) what do you say aisha! I soft smile touched in the corner of my lips "oh baba shehu tell her, mama don't wanna understand I'm some kind of grown up lad, I have to do some touches to look perfect and stunning right? Yes my dear mama need to understand our aisha is now a grown up woman,19 years? Allah dai yayi Albarka (may God bless you) Malam shehu said! Malam shehu you're always not tired of bursting Aisha's head, and I know if we will prolong you won't mind opening another page, but I will surely mind so I'm out of here "mama said smiling sweetly at the drama between me and baba shehu, we're always like that! Mama count some money and pass it to baba shehu, take this money it might help you when it comes to dinner for I've already cooked lunch , its in the kitchen, i will take flight from abuja to katsina , ka kula (take care)! Thank you very much hajiya I really do appreciate you, Nagode Allah ya bar girma! You're welcome mama said briefly, we're getting late , mama turned to me,propelling towards her black BMW m6 convertible, I reached the other front door, I was about to open it when mama's voice cut me throwing the car key to me ,ke (you) drive us to kano then I will take over ! i grabbed the key yeaaah I yelled in excitement, I love you so much mama 'muaahh! Mama shake her head and said you'll never grow up Aisha, with that she entered the car!. I was already tired when we reached kano, so with out arguing or griping I hand the key to mama! ! Doctor Aminu ismail is my father ! an Acclaim cardiologist who accomplished a lot! Katsina indigene , pure fulani! He's 59 years old, a very generous, greathearted magnanimous man! He got married to Fatima (mama), epitome of beauty, kindhearted and a very understandable woman , who's a great orthopedist 'also an indigene of katsina state, 45 years old! They met during some medical seminar, It was love at first sight that leads to marriage! 3 years after their marriage they give birth to me and only me, because, mama couldn't give birth again due to only God knows why, They visited a lot of their co doctors, but there was nothing wrong with both of them is always the statement "so they hugged sabr (patient)! I'm their only precious treasure, mama and abba, always pampered and show me endless love, they always give and do me what I want , if it didn't break the rules of Islam, Being their only loved child doesn't give them the intellect of raising me into a bad child! No ! they raised me into an ethical and submissive muslimah! and I'm gratified, Alhamdulillah,, They gave me a very good background , Mama occasionally use to recommend the medical stuffs and all wanting me to join the field but I said noooooo!! I don't know,! was it because my parent's are both doctor's, for I never had a thing for the field, I've been hearing my mates shouting, I want to be a doctor, this this that, but that was never me, because I did art class, which by now I'm chasing my dream of being a lawyer, I have that dream of giving voice to the voiceless since childhood which I'm now persuading! I'm a student at umaru yaradua university katsina, studying law, level two! Abba traveled to India for some course and mama is following his steps, which that's why she's sending me to abuja, Aunty Hafsat' house her best cousin, I wanted her to leave me in aunty sakina's house her blood sister, here in katsina but mama twist jaw and refused, saying "I'd rather take you to Hafsat's place than taking you to sakina 's, for sakina is that kinda of soul that don't care about anything you'll do! And luckily I'm not having school until next month and abba and mama won't pass through the whole month in India , that's why, for if to say I have school mama have no choice than allow me stay at Aunty sakina's! Wake up, Aisha wake up, you sleepy head we are already in abuja, mama voice echoing some how In my sleep, and 1 2 3 boom I'm awake! chu²
