Wurin tsaf yake fari fet. Yazo wurin reception ya shiga inda magunguna suke yana neman ruwa babu, sai yabi hanyan stairs ya kalla sama ya haura. Isansa saman keda wuya yaji surutu daga nesa nesa, ya nufa hanyan boss office, kila yarinyan nada ruwa. Hadiye yawu yayi don ya iya mata magana karta kara tsorata.
Handle din boss office ya ja amma yaki budewa kaman an kulle. Toba nan yaji muryartaba? Meyasa ta rufe? Yayita ja har haushi ya kamashi ya bangaza kofan ta bude ya shigo yaga ba kowa. Ruwa kawai kwalkwaluwarshi ke aiyana mishi. Ya kallo kofan bayi, yawwa ko banza zai samu ruwa a pampo yasha.
Taba kofan da zaiyi yaji itama a kulle, haushi ya kara kamashi, wai anan komai kullewa sukeyi? Ya fara bangaza kofan, tun yanayi a hankali harya fara yi da karfi. Yasa karfinshi na karshe ya bangazata da karfi. Kawai yana murnan zaisha ruwa wata mahaukaciya tayi ihu tayi cikinshi ta nausheshi a ciki, ya fadi ta tsallakeshi ta gudu.
Ganinshi kawai yayi warwas a kasa, ya rasa ya akayi hakan ta faru. Mikewa yayi da sauri ya ruga wurin pampo yasha ruwa kaman ba gobe. Sannan ya fito daga bayin yana gyaran murya.
"Baiwar Allah don Allah kiyi hakuri, kishine nakeji na kasa magana. Ina kike? Don Allah ki fito ba abinda zan miki wallahi".

"Kishine wallahi, tun safe nake neman ruwa ban samuba sai yanzu. Banci komai ba tun kwana ukun da suka wuce, don Allah in akwai abinci ki taimakamin dashi don Allah".
Asiya ta fito daga bayan curtain rikeda wuka, tanata kallonshi, a firgice yake, kayan jikinshi sunyi datti kamanme, gashi kakkarfane. Ta kwantarda hankalinta tanata nuna mishi wukan. "Abinci kakeso?! Amma ni kakusa halakani! Aiko tsoron karan kanshi ya isa ya halaka mutum".
"Don Allah kinyi hakuri, wallahi banzoda cutaba. Yunwace, ba kamanma kishi".
"Yanzu bakajin kishinne?".

"Muje kicin inga abinda zan samoma, tayaya ma akeyi kazo nan?" Suna tafiya yana mata bayani yanda akayi yazo. Suka isa kicin inda ta dumama mishi jollof ta bashi juice da ruwa.
Taje toilet ta dauka wayarta, ta tattaba amma bata kawo wutaba ta dauka charger ta dawo kicín tasa, bayan tadanyi charging ta kunna, lafiya lau ta fara kiran hafiz.
"Um bari in kira hafiz nasan yana can hankalinshi a tashe".

"Um lallai kin kyauta. I feel like it is my fault wannan rudanin da kika shiga".
"I feel like laifinane, nayi attacking poor man din, but akwai kamshin gaskiya a maganarka, laifinkane. Ya za ayi ka bani tsoro hakanan".

"Ya wuce ai, tunda yanzu na zama matarka".
"Ai dama dana ganki babe, ban daukeki a matsyin wata budurwataba, matatace kawai". Wani gishirin dadi ya barbade zuciyarta.
"A ina kake yanzu?"
"Um.....hanyan zuwa rose city".
Don Allah don darajan annabi da iyayenshi, haka Asiya tayita rokonshi da karyazo. Gari ba lafiya amma mutum ya dage saiyazo, so yake ya mutu kafin su hadu? Ya tabbatar mata da cewa a yanzu haka da take magana dashi yana border din rose.
Akwai rudu a halinda ta shiga amma komai ya warware da kanshi, meye na wahalan zuwa kuma. Hafiz ya bata hakuri yace yayi setting GPRS zaizo nan da 24 minutes. What!!! Bazai hakura ba kenan. Amma taya za ayi ya shigo garinda aka rufe, kosu na ciki basu fita. Sannan ma baya tsoron cutar nanne, idanshi bai tsoron ta kamashi, baya tsoron yazo ya bada mata, inbai mutuba kafin ya iso?
Oho ita ta sani yanda yazo dole saiya shigo, kuma zai kare kanshi karta damu. Babban burinshi ya hadu da ita, itama tanada burin haduwa dashi amma ba irin hakaba, cikeda fargaba. Yace ta mishi addu'a gashi nan shigowa.
