North prince charming

21. Almost gave up

This chapter is dedicated to my newest sweetheart, who is a poet, khadija AKA pen maleekah, thank you for dropping the sweetest comments, more ink to your pen.

We went on and on with Dahma and Janan talking about the date and they all seemed to like him, Mum liked him  too.

"I hope you like him sha ." Dahma asked.

"I do, but he hasnt still called. "

"He probably is waiting for you to call too."

"But he is supposed to call though. "

It took him two weeks and thirteen hours to call, I'm not exaggerating I keep count of time so well that you might think I'm getting payed for it.

After I've given up on the ship, infact I alighted from the ship and took a keke (tricycle) back into my lone self.

"Hey bae." His husky voice almost drooled me, but I wasn't in for it.

"Who is your bae?" I asked calmly.

"I know I have done nothing good since the date, but I'm deeply sorry, and I'll make up for it, I'm so sorry."

"Why haven't you been checking up on me?" I asked.

"We've been busy with ya Mukhtar's wedding preparations and so I didnt have time for myself, please understand."

"Okay, but I won't tolerate this act really. "

"You have to deal with it, why haven't you called too? Did you bother checking up on me? I was hurt too, but I'm not even complaining. "

"Well let me make this clear, it's your job as a man to give all you can to my well being."

"Oh wow, and you just a watcher? Okay."

"I'll be coming to see you later, After Ishai prayer and  please don't bring up this issue okay? Be a good girl."

I heaved a sigh, and answered him with an "okay."

I couldn't say no, or if I liked him or not.

Traits of a northern guy is that he has to be the lead and I must follow, he makes the rules and I must abide.

I rushed to my room and called Aunty hafsa Mum's younger sister, who has been my adviser be it anything, told her all about it and sadly she said "that's the trait of a northern guy, not every man is like your Dad, exercise patience dear, you'll have to deal with it."

Sadly I had to.

I went straight to my wardrobe and selected my purple and black vlisco atampa and a matching lilac purple veil, prayed, ate and waited patiently for his arrival,while everyone waited to meet him, except for Dad that went for a business trip, and ya lukman who was in school, I doubt if he knows about him, but Dahma and Janan never seem to let the patient Dog lie.

I tied my head gear into a ture ka ga tsiya  (  a typical northern head tie style.) Style and sat in the living room.

The gate man Hudu, rushed in to say, someone was at the gate, I then wrapped my veil on my head, covering my neck down to my bosom and went to usher him in, as they all ran back to their rooms and where set to come out once he comes in, pretending they didn't know about his visit.

My beautiful smile met his handsome one as we greeted.

"Good evening queen of my heart." He said with a hand on his chest.

"Good evening. " I replied smilingly.
