*Halima had always had such beautiful hair, right from her childhood. It fell right down to her shoulders, thick and jet-black with a sheen unlike any other. Her hair was one of the many things Afrah was glad she inherited."Abba doesn't know how lucky he is," Amina said as she watched Afrah plaiting her hair.
