She just murmured and stood up. He also left his friend's hand and they left.
"Friend I’m coming, wait for me Please".
"It's nothing".
Her friend was laughing.
Seeing that they had just arrived at the plaza, she told them to wait for thirty minutes for them to finish.
He wasn’t used to it but he looked at his watch, they had already spent time until prayer time came.
"Beauty, I’m changing clothes, let’s go ahead, there’s a prayer place, I’ll go and pray Magrib".
"No problem".
She calmed her heart on the phone. Since she left the car there was nothing she did except
pray for a minute until Allah made them finish. She saved Abie's number
and also put money into the account in the bank. She couldn’t get through because of network.
Coming back to Mamie, she was still walking and calling. She took
her eyes off the phone, she was tired, she wore a cap and a gown, she was reading
a book and it was time for her to come home. She thought she would wait for her. But
she just wiped her tears and held back her crying.
"Beauty, did we just arrive now?"
"That’s what I’m thinking too, and I was just telling you that I don’t really
understand. But since I didn’t force you, let’s just go to this restaurant and
I’ll find a way".
He looked at her with concern. "I have a question for you, would you mind?"
She was quiet like she wouldn’t answer. Then she sighed and nodded her head.
Fixing his sitting position, he faced her directly. "Your speech confirms to me
that you are a girl from Nigeria, is that where you grew up? The reason I’m asking is
could it be that the beauty of Nigerian girls is like this?"
She also didn’t answer but just lowered her eyes to the ground.
"Don’t mind me, I’m just saying Please".
"You don't even know me?".
"No, really".
She said it angrily. He didn’t say anything again, he just softened his face and started
the car murmuring.
Even when they reached where she asked him to go, he refused to drop her there.
With persuasion he tricked her and they entered. The key was
given to the woman to tell her that her son was at her place, and Anam didn’t have any
problem refusing and saying no but he tricked her to agree to come in. He himself
was looking for a way out but from the start he knew what kind of food she would
eat. He apologized and ordered drinks and snacks for her but he didn’t look at
the thing that was really hurting him.
The thought of calling Aysha came to her mind. She dialed the phone again
inside the car while crying. When she entered, she also tried
several times but no answer. She got tired and continued calling until Missed call
but no answer. Then she managed to hold back the crying that wanted to
come out......
