Chapter 4

Safeeya's pov

I couldn't believe I was going to live Kaduna, I grew up here and as a matter of fact I have never left Kaduna before.

My mama and papa lived here for over 40 years in the village of kutill where I was born.

"Thank you for using the Nigerian railway system" The loud voice from the speaker was so loud that It jolted me right out of my thoughts.

" Are we at Abuja yet ? " I asked humaid who Kept on looking all Arround.

"Yes, we'll be stopping at jabi " he said and I only nodded.

"Is jabi in Abuja or is it another state on its own?" I asked. my voice was a bit loud and a woman who was seating next to us began laughing and I knew she was laughing at me and so did Humaid, the woman was very beautiful. She looks just like a model.

"C'mon safeeya,do you need to yell so loud?" I knew he felt embarrassed because of the way his tone changed.

"Sorry" I also felt embarrassed.

"Jabi is in Abuja it's not another state" his facial expression suddenly changed and he spoke softly to me.

"Oh wow, I have allot to learn about States I guess" I say and the lady Chuckled again.

"Yeah, I'll teach you" he says and i smiled.

"Ok" i looked over to the woman and eyed her just like I used to eye All those useless men who had always tried to temper with me in the village.

"Even illiterates know how to feel to big" she said while flipping through her magazine.

"Fool" is said and she looked up to me,I guess she knew I was referring to her, just as she was referring to me.

"Did you just insult me?" She asks.

" lDid I ?" I acted innocent.

"What? What did she say to you?" Humaid intervened. He was asking the woman.

"she called me a fool" the lady said in a low tun .

" SubahanAllah (OMG) ,when did I do that?" I found myself yelling which got the Attention of half of the people in the train.

"Stop yelling safeeya" humaid scolded.

"Don't mind her, lower class women like herself do that allot" the lady said ,her accent sounded so amazing. it was even better than that of Alhanislam.

"You do know she is my wife?" Humaid said.

" Wow,how lucky she is to get a man as handsome as yourself. I never knew she was your wife" the lady said

.

"Well I am and you started it by calling me illiterate" I said.

"Oh that,I was reading an article on my magazine. I am sorry if you felt insulted" she apologized.

"Well....." Humaid cut me short.

"It's okay,it's cool." Humaid said.

"No problem" she said while seating down on her seat while I took mine.

I wanted to speak to humaid. but his facial expression dared me to. He looked very Angry so I decided to maintain my lane and keep quit.
