It had being three weeks since Fadimatuu came to Ummi's house.
And in those weeks that passed, she didn't met Khaleel which she's happy about it, because had it being they met they would start fighting which would not end good.
She remembered they make few calls with Aaminah, her best friend. They got quite along with Zaynab which Fadimatuu knew they would.
They said they can't wait to meet each other and got admitted to BUK.
The four of them would make a perfect best of friends.
She even imagined the kind of craziness Ameerah, Aaminah, Zaynab and her of course.
When she's with them she used to forget herself and just chilled with them.
If she's not crazy God would ask her, because she had best friend like Aaminah and a cousin like Ameerah and now Zaynab joined the gang of their craziness.
Sometimes she used Zaynab's or Ameerah's phone to call Abba.
As she didn't have phone.
She missed her father a lot, his care towards her and everything related to him.
It's because of him she's going to return if not she won't return to Ammi's wrath.
She remembered one day she called Ammi and the phone call didn't end well which result to Ammi ruining Fadimatuu's whole day.
Ammi even bugged Abba into Fadimatuu returning home since when she's one week at Ummi's house.
But Abba didn't paid heed to what she's saying, instead he told her to let his princess spend her holiday in peace.
"Back to earth girl" Ameerah tapped Fadimatuu shoulder bringing her out of her trance of thoughts.
"What are you thinking about?" Zaynab asked her.
"Nothing really" Fadimatuu replied her.
"Or you're going to missed me when I returned home right?" Zaynab asked her again gaining a playful glare from Ameerah.
"God forbid who will missed you" Ameerah stuck her tongue out at Zaynab.
"Who even asked you, Zaynab I'll missed you very very very much, please don't go today leave it till Friday then we can go home together, since it's only two days till then" Fadimatuu said pleading with Zaynab to stay, not to go home today
In these three weeks they spend together, Fadimatuu and Zaynab had grown closed to each other that's the reason she didn't want her to go.
"Me too I don't want to go but Mama said I should return home today because she missed me a lot and there was no one she can chat with.
"And you knew Muhsin was here with Imran since last week, and Baba and Akhi were not always at home, so that's why she insisted I should returned" Zaynab told Fadimatuu.
"It's okay, you shouldn't let your mother alone, you better go before I carry you" Fadimatuu said smiling but Zaynab's face went pale at what she said.
"Sorry did I say something wrong?" Fadimatuu asked her.
"No you didn't say anything wrong" Zaynab said looking down.
"Please you can tell me, you know there's nothing we should hide from each other, Ameerah tell me if she won't I know you knew what's wrong" Fadimatuu said holding Zaynab's hands and looking at Ameerah to tell her.
"It's not my place to tell she should tell you by herself " Ameerah answered her, Zaynab always went in a bad mood by the mention of mother.
"Don't worry Fadimatuu I'll tell you but not now till later" Zaynab replied her in a low voice.
"Okay no problem" Fadimatuu said.
"That's remind me Malam tukur was waiting for us to take you home" Ameerah told them.
They were going to take Zaynab and Muhsin home all of them including Imran.
"And why are you telling us now, you left him in the car waiting for us" Zaynab said glaring at her.
"Because it is now I remembered" Ameerah said rolling her eyes.
"Oh Ameerah what can we do with you?" Fadimatuu asked palming her face.
"Nothing, all of you better hurry up so that he won't wait for us any longer. I would go and call Muhsin and Imran, till we meet in the car" Ameerah said standing up and heading towards the door.
"Okay Madame" Zaynab replied her.
*******
Ameerah's and Zaynab's house are not that far from each other, it's just two streets away, both are living in GRA.
Malam Tukur honked on the huge iron black gate, the security men open the gate when they sees them.
Fadimatuu gazed in awe as she looked at Zaynab's house scratched that mansion.
The mansion was very beautiful with the trees perfectly adorning it and it's beautiful water font.
She had a glimpsed of swimming pool at the far end of the mansion and football, basketball and even table tennis field.
As they alighted from the car, Fadimatuu looked at the mansion clearly again.
They walked towards the main house, the front door was metallic, they rang the bell of the house and a woman probably in her late 20s appeared dressed in white shirt and black skirt.
"Good evening" She greeted them smiling revealing her 32 teeth.
"Good evening" They replied her in unison.
"Zaynab you don't know how much I missed you in this mansion, but Muhsin I didn't missed you because you used to trouble me" She said cheerfully.
"I missed you too Laura" Zaynab replied her smiling.
"I don't missed you too" Muhsin said sticking his tongue out and ran towards the staircase yelling "Mama" Imran trailed after him.
They just laughed at his childishness.
"Ma missed you very much" Laurah told Zaynab.
"Oh my Mama I missed her too" Zaynab said entering the living room further.
Fadimatuu can't get her eyes off the spacious living room.
The chandelier hung perfectly on the ceiling.
The walls were fashionable shades of white with beautiful wallpaper in it, and the floor polished concrete.
She noticed two story staircase and they climbed the one by the right.
They came into another large beautiful living room when they went upstairs.
She saw a beautiful woman probably Arab in her early 40s chatting with Muhsin and Imran laughing at the funny joke they made.
She's probably Zaynab's mother.
"Mama" Zaynab shout on top of her lungs engulfing her in a bone crushing hug.
"My baby do you want to break my fragile bones?" Mama said playfully pushing her a little from her laugh
"Mama you don't know how much I missed you" She smiled and hug her again.
"I missed you too my baby, the house was boring without you and Muhsin" Mama said when they broke out of the hug.
"Ameerah come here and Fadimatuu right?" Mama smiled warmly at them as she noticed them standing.
"Assalamu alaikum" They said in unison.
"Come here" she said opening her hands as Zaynab stand up from her lap.
She hugged Ameerah first, then she hugged Fadimatuu.
"Fadimatuu you're beautiful" Mama complemented her.
"Thank you" Fadimatuu replied her shyly.
"Ameerah your cousin is shy, feel free dear like you're at home" Mama smiled warmly at her.
"Okay Ma" Fadimatuu replied her.
"Not Ma call me Mama" Mama said to her to which she nod.
Fadimatuu liked Mama already.
"Zaynab take them to your room and asked Laurah to bring snacks for them" Mama told her.
"Okay Mama" Zaynab answered her gesturing for Fadimatuu and Ameerah to follow her.
They went inside Zaynab's room, the room was all white with some touches of black and it was very big.
The went and sat on the bed.
"Let me call Laurah to bring us snacks" Zaynab said to them and they nod.
Zaynab called her through the intercom of the room.
"Laurah please would you send someone to bring snacks and drinks for us?" Zaynab asked her over the phone.
"Okay I'll send Baraka right away" She replied her and then Zaynab hung up the phone muttering "thank you" to her.
In not less than five minutes, they had a knock from the door and Zaynab said "come in".
She greeted them to which they answered her and she brought the snacks and drinks and put it in the centre table of the room.
"Thank you" Fadimatuu thank her to which she smiled brightly and said "My pleasure" and then she left the room.
"Bring the snacks and drinks to the bed!" Ameerah ordered Zaynab to which she smacked her arm.
"Ouch" Ameerah said rubbing her arm and glared at Zaynab.
Fadimatuu stood and brought the plate of Samosas, Cookies, Muffins, and cup cake to the bed and handing each one a cup of mango juice.
"It taste gooooood" Ameerah said as she munch on the Samosas.
"Yeah I agree with you" Fadimatuu replied her devouring on the Samosas too.
"You should taste the muffins too, it taste muaw" Zaynab told them Munchin on it.
"I think I have to pack all these delicious snacks" Ameerah said shaking her head making them laugh at her.
"Okay I'll tell Laurah to pack it for you" Zaynab said to which Ameerah smiled happily.
"Zaynab I like your Mama she's very nice" Fadimatuu said remembering the act of kindness Mama showed to her.
"Thank you" Zaynab smiled.
