Chapter 7👑

April 19.

Karaye, Kano.

Khadijah Daaihah's POV

I watched as Adda Anee calmly put on her studs, taking her time before proceeding to maneuver her head tie and applying makeup on her face.

She then applied a roan lipstick, the perfect shade to her lilac ankara mermaid gown. You know what she did next? The woman proceeds to pick up her Samsung snapping pics of herself like she has no care in the world. Can you imagine?

She should be anxious, nervous, and apprehensive even! And every other word that would fit in the category but no, she's calm.

I don't see how she can be so calm on a day like this.

I'm not the one to meet them yet I'm the one freaking out. I'm trying to make sure everything goes as planned; there are no side holes or loose ends in this matter. It took me hours to get her lazy ass out of the bed, into the shower and to dress up. You'll think I'm the eldest between us.

Well, today is the day Adda Anee's supposed and potential in-laws are coming to visit, both to see her and for the 30th anniversary.

The entire family is coming, ranging from the father to the youngest daughter; I think her name is Afnan or Minal. I don't really know. They arrived yesterday together with other guests, then stayed at the royal maisonette. Today, they'll be visiting the royal palace. The elders still won't tell us the family name, so we have to wait and let our eyes see.

I am shining my eyes well.

"Adda Anee, for Allah's sake! Please, I beg of you, hurry up!" I pleaded; tired of bossing her around. What's the point of it when she'll not listen to me? She'll just remind me that she's the eldest between the two of us.

She snapped another picture of herself before setting her phone aside; she then flashed me a smile, "Daihaah, why are you so worked out? I'm all dressed up already"

"Because....Becauseyoudon'twantthismarriageandi'mafraidyoumightwanttosabotageit " I replied in one breath.

Her face held an amused expression "Say it again please, slower, and this time in English" She did not bother to hide the smile on her face.

I inhaled deeply and exhaled, deciding to repeat myself slower this time "Because you don't want this marriage and I'm afraid you might want to sabotage it" I said before releasing a breath I didn't realize I was holding in.

She chuckled "Yes, I do not want it, but still, it's my wedding. So, you should chill out. I'm not going to attempt to ruin it in any way"

"Okay. If you say so. But you still have to put on your laffaya" I reminded her.

She looked over to the bed where the pitch black laffaya laid. The candelabrum making the lapis lazuli on it shimmers. Hajiya Kaka gave it to her as a pre wedding gift "I know" She said before looking at the time on her phone whilst fixing the gold wristlet on her wrist "We still have about 15-25 minutes before they get here, so that means I can enjoy my life before they arrive"

I nodded my head in agreement.

I slumped on my bed, picked up my phone and saw a message from Muhsin.

Muhsin~ Mutumiyar.

I smiled.

Daihaah~ Yaya Sweetheart

Muhsin~ Iye?! What am I seeing? What is Yaya Sweetheart again?

I laughed at the terrified emojis he sent with the message.
