CHAPTER 34: RAMEN AND SOJU

"What are they doing?" Jannah asked as her eyes moved from Suhad to Prince.

"I think they're trying to get drunk" Daihaah replied as she and Jannah watched their husbands sit opposite them. Her hands are folded over her torso as she watched them wondering if they have grown two heads. Jannah is wondering about the same thing.

Suhad dropped his now empty small glass cup. Prince filled it up to the tip again for him while Suhad downed it all. Then. They switch positions in the sense that Suhad now filled up Prince's cup while the guy took it all in. They ignored their wives and just got lost in their apparently 'soju'.

"Drunk?" Jannah asked not taking her eyes off her husband, the corner of her lips scrunched up a bit wondering what the hell got into him.

"Yup" Daihaah responded as she watched her husband drink in another cup.

Jannah shook her head watching as Suhad filled up his cup and then Prince's. The two clank the two glasses together as they muttered 'cheers' before they drank it. "How can you possibly get drunk on Pepsi?" Her eyes moved to the two Pepsi bottles infront of both men, one each.

So far, they've drank one and are currently on the second one. This has been going on for over half an hour.

"I don't know. Why don't they answer us? It's not like they can't hear us or something" Daihaah shook her head when neither of the men acknowledged their presence. They are simply ignoring them.

Why? Because of the scene they caused at ANNA's.

"Dude I'm telling you, women are a lot to handle" Suhad shook his head as he stared at his cup filled with Pepsi or in their words 'soju'.

Prince huffed lowly, "Your wife is easy to handle seff. Imagine how much my pregnant wife drives me nuts" He hissed slightly and then filled his cup up, he drank it all.

"Are you kidding me? Man I know your wife is a lot to handle"

"True that"

"—But have you met mine? She never goes an hour without causing any trouble"

"Yours is an hour. Mine can't go ten minutes without doing something"

"Um hello" Jannah waved her hands trying to get the two men's attention.

"We're right here you know" Daihaah said. But, just like earlier, the men ignored them and kept on talking as if they aren't there.

"Imagine what would've happened if we didn't show up on time?" Suhad asked as he turned to look at his best friend.

Prince Aamir scoffed, "It doesn't matter. The deed is done already. They slapped Anna. What else is left?"

"Technically--" Jannah cut him off but Daihaah finished the statement for her.

"We didn't. Tatiana did. We are innocent" But of course, the guys ignored them, again.

"You know what I'm worried about?" Suhad sounded like he's about to cry, his blinking only added to the show he's putting up, "I'm worried about Jannah. What if she ends up jobless?"

"Ayyah sorry bro. I'm also worried about Daihaah. If Anna decides to press charges, the board might dismiss her and then she'll become jobless too" Prince shook his head, the same time Suhad did.

"How will we fend for them?" Suhad asked wiping away his fake tears.

"Gasu da ci kaman meh" Prince added making both women's eyes widen. As much as Daihaah loved the instances he speaks in Hausa, this isn't one of those times.
