Lara Akinwummi was a grey haired, smallish woman with a pleasant face."Hello you're right on time." She said coming down the stairs. They lived in an upper class neighborhood that had left Amirah almost speechless with how magnificent most of the buildings looked.Amirah was dressed in a teal colored abaya with a matching veil, her face was bare of makeup but..."You're so beautiful wow." Mrs Lara said pulling Amirah up for a hug and Amirah towered over her considering she was average height and still on heels."Muhammad, my boy." Doctor Akinwummi said patting Muhammad on his back."How're you doing sir?""I'm fine." Then he fake-whispered, "does your wife has equally beautiful sisters?"Lara turned to him with a glare and he bursted out laughing raising his hand in a surrending manner."I'm asking for a friend." He

•••• •••• •••• ••••"Aunty Amirah." Ife her co-worker said sashaying towards her at the canteen.Amirah sighed, "just Amirah.""You're my boss so I have to call you aunty." She said laughing as she settled herself on the seat opposite Amirah who had a plate of chips and egg and a strawberry smoothie."Is that all you're eating?" Ife asked."Yes, I get full easily." Amirah really enjoyed being alone, her team members had tried their best in the past one month to get as close to her as possible but it'd been futile.

She'd say, "something must have happened." And when he'd started touching seve

•••• •••• •••• ••••The rest of the drive was silent, Amirah relaxed on her seat and closed her eyes listening to an old school hit playing. Muhammad regularly turned to stare at her, he felt bad about how he'd spoken to her and he didn't know what to do next.Ummul Khair was almost alone, she had sounded frightened when she'd called and he wanted to be there for her? How could he continue with his outing and go have fun knowing that someone close to him was in such state, it wasn't about him having feelings for Ummul Khair or anything of that sort, she was his friend and he wanted to be there for her.He couldn't deny that there wasn't a special tenderness he felt for her but nothing more, it may have resulted from the fact that she was always there for him and how pitifully lonely she was.

"Ramadan shopping list completed!" Amirah announced before dropping the pen on the table dramatically."I've been thinking." Muhammad said coming out from the kitchen with a bowl of cereal, "we should get a house help."Amirah looked at him surprised, "why?""Which one is why?""Why should we get a house help?""Well to help you with the chores after all, we're having a baby.""Oh Allah, not again.
