" I hate that girl already " an angry Hassana barge into the room in anger
" hey, you need to calm down. Where is saddam?" hussaina asked as she faced her sister from where she was sat on the bed.
" he has left" Hassana answered
" So now tell me who is this unfortunate girl you hate and by the way you nearly knocked down the door! "
Hassana huffs " is it not that good for nothing maid. She is so getting on my nerves"
" what maid? "
" The new one,the one who always wake us up" Hassana groaned
Hussaina made a 'O' sound " you still haven't told me what she did"
" She and Saddam knew each other way back" she said exasperated
Hussaina was confused " so? "
" you're asking me so? Don't you get it already? "
" look Hassana I don't understand you, if you know you can't elaborate more on this matter then let me be and don't disturb my peace"
Hassana heaved a sigh " I think those two had once dated "
<She was dressed in a beautiful white lace with a shawl full of pearls covering her body. Her hand was well designed beautifully with henna like the bride she was. Everything about her screams perfect.A smile graced her lips as the door to the room opened indicating that her groom was here. She couldn't shake off the giddiness in her. This was it, she thought. She is now a married woman and as perfect as that sounds, she is married to the love of her life who stood tall beside the door staring at her in a way that makes her want to cover her face shyly.The groom also couldn't believe it. He couldn't believe that this woman sitting on their king size bed was his, his life. He had waited long enough for this day. He winked at her and actually got the reaction he wanted coz she covered her face shyly with her beautiful designed henna hand .He ambled slowly towards her, he sat down beside her. He got hold of her hand which was still covering her fac
Still in her bed is Hajiya Basira Dantata. At 11am, one would think she might be up. It's sad to say the twins actually inherit this side of hers.Those three tend to be the last people to wake up in the house and who so ever tries to disturb Hajiya Dantata's sleep is definitely in trouble.She sighed softly in her sleep, enjoying whatever she was dreaming about. Her husband, alhaji Dantata had long gone to work together with Faisal.***Umm rasheed gave Kalthum another personal lecture before going to the market. Kalthum took her bucket and moping stick and head to the big boss's side of the mansion. The mansion has two long stairs to pass through. The one on the right is the way to the children's side while the one on the left is the parents side.Kalthum feared what was waiting for her over there. She has this dread feeling that something is likely to happen and she does not wish to be on Hajiya basira bad side especially after all s
" No nanny, it wasn't a slap. I hit my head " Kalthum lied hoping that she would believe her." Stop lying " Basma annoying voice saidKalthum glared at her " I wasn't even talking to you"Nanny faced Basma " Basma can you please take this to the kitchen? I need to have a word with your sister " she took the polythene bag from Kalthum's hand and hand it over to Basma." Ok ma" said Basma solemnly as she took the bag" Thank you " said umm rasheedBasma shot her a smile " Thank you so much Nanny for always taking good care of my sister. I know she is a lot to handle but thanks anyways" in her mind, she was burning in rage.Umm rasheed smiled at her thinking that she cares so much for Kalthum " you have absolutely nothing to thank me for. You and your sister, including the other maids matters to me. You all are my responsibility and it's my duty to care for all of you"" I know ma but thanks anyways " Basma said with a
" sorry for asking sir but what are you doing here? Are you looking for my sister? " Kalthum asked quizzically. It's possible he is here for Basma since she now works for him, Kalthum thought. His tall figure stood almost looming over her.He cleared his throat " actually, I'm here for you "She furrowed her brows confused " uhm OK. Here I am sir " she closed the door behind her as she came out of the room.Faisal mentally groaned. He couldn't believe he was really doing this. Now she would think he was crazy." I'll prefer if we talk outside the lodge. I wouldn't want us to wake the others"Could something be wrong? She wondersKalthum nodded " OK Sir " and trailed behind him like a kitten following her master. For a second, she was actually following her master. After all,he is still the boss, she thought.Kalthum was met with the chilli night breeze as it prickles her skin. She loves every bit of it. She closed her
.......Faisal woke up with just one wish and that is to see Kalthum's beautiful face before going to office . Even if it's just a glimpse he is OK with that. The more he remember last night event, the more his smile widen. Hesure looks like a high school boy right now crushing on a girl. He shook his head slightly with a smile then stilled all of a sudden.Crush!No! Does that mean he has a crush on Kalthum? How is that possible?!This can't be happening, she is a maid and he is her boss. This is totally wrong!How comes he hasn't realize that he likes her not until now!Ya Allah help me out here. This shouldn't be happening, she is just a maid! A maid who is a drop out and he doesn't swing that way.He stared at himself as he bottom up his shirt. But how is he going to face her!He has never felt this way in his life not even when he is with hintadu. Then why is Kalthum so special?The soun
......Zainab sighed for the tenth time today. Her annoying brother as she prefers to call him kept on pestering her about her friend, Kalthum. Since he got back to town he hasn't seen Kalthum and his kid sister refuses to tell him about her whereabout.Jamil is zainab's elder brother and he is one of Kalthum's many admirers but because of the player he was, Kalthum never for once develop a liking for him.She prefers to see him as zainab brother and nothing more ." please Zainab, why do you keep avoiding this question? " he asked as he sat on the couch in front of her.Zainab rolled her eyes then dropped the novel she was reading " Ya Jamil, I've told you already, She travelled "He smirked " Really now? Yesterday you told me she was in her mother's house and today another story? I don't get why you don't want me for your friend, I like her and you know it"" I don't trust you yaya. You and I both kn
.....After taking Hindatu home, Faisal drove home too. He couldn't stop thinking about Hindatu's sudden cold shoulders.When kalthum ran away he went back to the office where a vexing Hindatu was waiting for him. She looked deep in thought that she didn't even felt his presence.He cleared his throat trying to gain her attention " are you alright? "She gave a small smile then nodded " yes I am. "He shrugged " OK. Are you heading home now? Cos I'm about to close"She fiddles with her nails " Does that mean you won't allow me to take you out today? "" I'm sorry Hindatu. Right now I have alot on my mind "She nodded " I understand " forcing a smile " I'll just leave "" No! I can drop you home. I don't mind " he told herShe stared at him longer than expected " are you sure? Hope it won't be a problem "" Not at all" he shook his head and went to retrieve his car keys which was on hi
One month laterEverything has been going smoothly for Faisal and Kalthum. Their love life is kept a secret from all. Nobody has any idea of how their love flourishes day by day. How they manage to pull that off was beyond them. Truth be told, it was so hard hiding it from everyone. The only one who knew about it for now was Zainab, Kalthum's friend and she was over the moon since Kalthum told her.The two couple meet most of the time in the garden when everyone is asleep . At times Faisal always send a maid to call Kalthum to his study even when she was on duty. Whenever Umm rasheed question him about it, he always brought up different types of lies why he needed to see her. He does all that just to have sometime with her.Even with all the lies, Umm Rasheed still gets suspicious everytime Faisal request for Kalthum during work hour. She suspects that something was going on between the two and was going to find out." you're bei
