WAITING FOR SADIQ
CHAPTER 20

"Then what else do you want dije?
For someone to give this kind of huge amount just to make sure you are safe I don't think there's any other definition of love other than that,
You have psychological problems honestly."jidderh say as she watch Nanah chopping the onions.

"I'm just angry at him,
Let me not lie i admire that dude,
I just don't want to make same mistake i made with sadiq,
Giving soo much to a relationship that in the end causes nothing but pain."khadijah say with a sigh and jidderh humm in response.

She really did feel bad for the way she's treating abubakar, as bad as she doesn't want to be mean to him she couldn't help because she believe men doesn't regard women as anything unless she give them the snobbish attitude.

"Me i still insist you stop all this,
He doesn't deserve any of this Nanah,
Sadiq did what he has to give this boy a chance, you aren't getting any younger,
Now what benefits did you get by doing all this."jidderh say and khadijah give her gravely look but didn't comment.

The two continue talking mostly jidderh complaining about her marital obstacles, as khadijah tell her little about her encountered with the kidnappers, she spend the entire day at jidderh house it's until maghrib before she head home exhausted to the brim.

"Good evening ummah."she greet and her mum just give her a glance but didn't comment.

Hajiya Halima feel fed up with khadijah attitude toward abubakar, she cannot even process the fact that regardless how much she speaks to Nanah and even tell him he was the one that paid almost all the ransom for her kidnapped her daughter will still be so cold-hearted to treat him the way she did,
This evening after she got the unexpected call from abubakar mum the need to beat khadijah is the only thing that has been ringing in her ears.

"Umm..........

"Nanah,
I gave birth to you and among all my children i believe you are the one that i shower with the most affection but there's not a single thing i will ask you to do and you will do it,
You are just soo.......
I don't know but sometimes i doubted if you are my daughter,
What did you want in life?.......hajiya halima pause with a sigh.
"Abubakar had an accident,
He's in the hospital,
His mum called me this evening and she......
Well obviously i believed they had a conversation about you with his mum and he got upset and left home then that happened,
What did you want Nanah?
Abubakar is a nice guy,.I don't know why you are just been extra calloused and venting the frustration of your previous relationship on him,
If you didn't give yourself a chance to happiness you will never find one,
I am tired and fed up with you,
All i will do now is just watch you honestly since i believe no matter what I say it's still what you feel the need to do that you will do."Hajiya Halima say and stand up from the couch with a sigh.

Nanah watch until her mum disappear to her bedroom lobby before she release a heavy tiring breathe as her mind wander back to there previous conversation this afternoon.

**********************
Abubakar POV

I never for once gotten into an accident but today after my conversation with my mum i was just so upset that i wasn't paying much attention to the road, ever since Nanah got back the conversation between my mum and I is always about marriage, I don't want to tell her the situation between Nanah and i but mother's they say they always have a way of figuring things out, and now my mum believe Nanah is an ingrate that doesn't appreciate people empathy.
