Zaheer Pov

"Ma'a i will be traveling tomorrow to kano. I need to go and check on my company over there. It's been long i check on it so i need to go and see what is going on over there"

"its okay son but you have not say anything about our discussion. Is it that you're sick or what because am tired of you telling me you're not ready to settle down, when you know you're not getting any younger but rather getting older or do you want me to die without seeing my grandchildren"

"Ma'a have told you time without number to stop saying all these things all the time don't worry you will see my children till your tired is just that have not seen who i will present to you as a wife"

"Then if that the problem i can get you one of my friends daughter or one of you're cousins because all of them are pretty unless you have someone that i don't know of"

"Okay Ma'a if that what you want no problem. I will allow you to choose a bride for me since you insist i should get married because your tired of feeding me no problem. I will get married and stop eating you're food hope you're happy now. She smiled

"You're saying that so that i will give up then sorry its not working on me try something else"

He smiled "Okay Ma'a no problem. Ma'a where is my food am hungry"

"You see why i insist you get married if you have wife now she could have serve you without you asking of you're food but no you don't have i'm the one doing all what your wife is suppose to be doing Sa'a bring his food for him or are you eating at the dinning table"

"No Ma'a let her bring it here i can't go up there now am tired"

"Okay Sa'a bring it here for him"

After serving me she left the parlour and i devour into my food Ma'a your the best even if i get married i will continue to eat you're food because you're the best cook have ever seen that why i don't like eating outside unless i travel

"Stop making mouth if you get married now you will forget about all these and say you're wife is the best cook you better keep quit now before you choke yourself and start coughing"

"Okay Ma'a"

After i finish eating i wash my hand and say "Thank you so much Ma'a you're the best"

"You're welcome my dear go and take you're bath and rest but make sure you pray"

"Okay Ma'a see you later i love you my hope. Bye"

I left to my room to take my bath pray and have some rest or probably have some sleep to cool down.

I did not wake up till it was time for the congregation prayer. I entered the toilet and perform ablution before going to the mosque for the congregation prayer because that how i was brought up if your at home and its time to pray then you have to go to the mosque and pray together with others because its have more reward than you should pray alone. I was in the mosque till after Isha prayer because that how we do after magrib prayer we recite the holy Qur'an till Isha prayer after the prayer everyone leave to there various houses.

I walk out together with Abba from the mosque, good evening Abba

"Zaheer how are you i ask of you with you're mother and was told you're sleeping guess you were tired today"

"Yes Abba i was but Alhamdulillah am good now"

"Mashallah i heard your going to Kano to check on your company over there"

"Yes am leaving tomorrow in the morning In Sha Allah"

"Okay that good let head inside for dinner before my lovely wife start calling me"

"Haba Abba your saying that in front of me so that i will be jealous don't worry i will soon get my own wife"

"That will be good because am tired of you disturbing my wife for me all the time"

They both laugh and say Salam before entering the parlour

I sat on the sit close to my Ma'a and gave her a peck on the cheek she smile

" I don't know when you will grow up but don't worry after you get married now and start having children you will change"

I smile and said "No i will not because you will continue to be my Ma'a"

They all move to the dinning area to have their dinner after the dinner they all sit in the parlour and gist for some minute before he say goodnight to them.

Its almost time for me to leave for the airport so i hurriedly walk to my parent part to say goodbye to them. Morning Abba and Ma'a he said giving them peck both on the cheek.

" Morning son guess you're leaving already"

"Yes i'm i don't want to miss my flight"

"Okay son safe trip, take care of you're self over there and make sure you eat on time"

"I will Ma'a Bye to you both i love you all" I went straight to the parking space because the driver know am traveling already so without wasting much time we left and arrived some minute in the airport. I gave the driver some money and he start praying for me

"May the Almighty continue to guide, protect and provide for you always may you're enemies never see you're back"

I just wave my hand at him and left because am use to his prayers which i ask him to stop but he did not

Without wasting much time the flight took off.

Some hours later

We arrived at Aminu Kano International Airport, i was walking and turning around looking for the driver when i bump into someone i look up and came face to face with her i was busy staring at her because OMG have not seen someone as elegance as she is i stop staring at her and we both apologized at the same time, and bend down together again to pick our pads when our heads collide with one another again but these time she shout and touch her forehead but i was in another world because her voice was so melodious that someone can forget about himself and will continue to listen to her voice without getting tired i was brought back to the present when she talk

"Am sorry"

With that she left, i turn to look at her retreating figure she's the definition of true beauty, she's having the shape every man needs in a woman which is figure eight in fact everything about her is perfect and intact. I continue starring at her until i could not see her again before turning back to walk to the car where the driver have been waiting for me since.

I was looking around when we were going home because its been long have been to Kano my hometown. When we arrive i walk straight to my grandma side i saw her sitting alone and eating fruit when she look up and saw me she frown her face

"I thought you're not coming back again since you have forgotten about me because you have a beautiful girl now"

"Says who. you're my number one and only. No one can take me away from you because you're my first and last wife" she smile

"That my husband so how was you're trip and the people over there hope they are all fine"

"Yes they are and send there greetings to you all"

" will you eat or freshen up first there is Fura in the fridge anyone you wish to take first"

"I will take the Fura then will go and freshen up and pray before eating anything"

"Ok Maimuna bring the Fura for my husband"

She brought the Fura greet me and keep it on the table in front of me before leaving the parlour.

After taking the Fura i stand up and said Hajiya am going to my room i will come back later when i rest

"Okay rest well my dear"

I left her part and walk to my room.
