After Samiat and Aisha gathered money together to pay for Ademide's surgery.The doctor fixed a date for her and they looked forward to that day, he already told them that her chances of walking again was very few but they wanted to try, the little girl was admitted back in the hospital and was treated towards the days of her surgery.Her grandmother was relieved but she still wished her granddaughter was able to walk, that was their wish whenever they visited her at the hospital.She was trying to fight it through with all the strength she had and it scared the little girl that she would be crippled for the rest of her life.Aisha got into the hospital room and met Ademide discussing with her grandmother, they stopped talking and acknowledged her once she was sighted by them."Good afternoon ma." Aisha smiled at Ademide's grandmother. "How's she doing?" She asked about the girl's health."She's very fine." She smiled and looked at Ademide.

Having your best friend around can be a mixture of pleasure and pain, pleasure in the sense that you get to talk about things, visit places and catch up on happenings that you've missed and also pain in the sense that you keep doing all the chores around the house because your best friend is heavy with a baby and you don't want to stress her.That was what happened in the case of Esther and Ben, since Esther arrived in Kano. Ben has been the only one doing all the chores, cooking for four human beings, Esther, Samiat, herself and the unborn baby. Esther helped her out sometimes while Samiat just stayed in her room all day.Annie came back to the house, she had pleaded with Toba to let her back in the house till they got married.Esther started her course at Mahmoud's culinary school, she was always going in the morning and back in the afternoon and most times, she's left with Samiat at home.Samiat doesn't communicate with her, even when she tried to brin

Ben was now used to the arid lands that surrounded Kano, she'd wanted to go against Roshan's decision of driving them to see a desert-like tourist place but she needed to whirl away time and free herself from all stress she's passed through lately.They got to 'Stop and watch the dry sand' and opted for two tickets, he gave one to her and he took one. They entered after they were checked."Wow!" She screamed when she saw the beautiful texture of the sand that looked like the one in Sahara desert. She didn't believe there was a place like that in Kano until she saw for herself. "How did you get to know about this place?" She whispered because screaming the first time attracted people's attention and she hated the way they gawked at her like she committed an abomination."I had a project to work on two weeks ago and browsing through the Internet, I saw this place online and I made it a must to visit. Do you like it here?" He asked her and she nodded her head positive

Ben got a call from Ademide's grandmother and she quickly rushed down to the hospital to check up on them. When she got there she met her at the reception —where she sat and tapped her feet on the tiled floor, she wasn't looking bright and one could easily know that she was deep in thoughts.Ben approached her and sat close to her, it took a while before she could feel someone's presence next to her."Ben, you're here." Her voice was low and that bothered Ben the more. "When did you arrive?" She asked."Few minutes ago." Ben responded to her."I've been here for a while now.""They're done with her." She whispered."I'm sorry I couldn't make it down here, my friend is at home and I couldn't leave her alone. Aisha went to work too, she had something to do for the boss." Ben explained."It's fine, you two have done enough for me.""What did the doctor say, was it successful?" She asked."Yes, it was. After the surgery

"How do I look?" Ben twirled around on the low heel shoes she wore, she didn't want to look extra for the dinner. She had opted for a pair of shoes and a simple dress but Esther had persuaded her to wear something more catchy."Perfect!" Esther yelled. "Roshan will lose his senses after seeing you and I bet that his parents won't have a choice but to say "Go ahead and marry our son, mademoiselle." She said dramatically making the two of them burst out in laughter. "You look good dear, very good. If I were a guy, I won't let you pass by without shooting my shots." She winked at Ben."You're just naughty, don't be extra dramatic. Be real, please?" She checked herself again. "I hope, I'm not overdressed." She looked at Esther for a response and she just nodded her head."What were you planning to wear, that ugly dress?" She frowned and kept the dress, Ben had brought out initially, she threw it back into the wardrobe and shut it. "If his parents does not accept you
