Sahla walked inside the house with a Salam. Umma's maid answered and said "welcome hajiya Sahla."
"Thank you ba'aba is umma inside?"
"No she is at ALHAJI's side there is a family meeting."
Sahla nodded and said "see you later I will be leaving now." She walked to dads side and opened the door.
She closed the door and removed her shoes before taking the six pairs of stairs and walking past the dinning room.
She spotted a few heads in the main living room so she went there. She said Salam and heard a few answers here and there.
She squatted down and said "good afternoon dad and umma." "Afternoon Sahla you are a bit late" dad said.
She forced a smile out and said "I was held up in traffic you know how Lagos traffic is" she replied.
He nodded and said "where are the kids they need to know their uncle and aunts."
"They will be here baba but first the adults need to finish talking then we can introduce them to each other."
Out of all the nine children of Ibrahim Bello Waziri only Sahla showed up.
After an hour baba exploded. He looked at umma. "Did you tell your kids not to come? It is expected of Naseem as he isn't in Nigeria but what about the rest?"
Umma looked at Sahla and looked back at him. "I had know idea that you called your kids as well."
"Fine then. I will see how they will stay in this house since they chose to disrespect me."
Ya Sahla looked down and tried to hold her smile.
She looked at Sumayya and looked away. So Hafsat isn't here and neither is her daughter.
She looked at baba and said "baba, I have to pick the kids up from school so I will leave now."

That same night Nabeel and Salaha went to Naseem's house where salma gave them rooms to stay the night.
None of them said anything to her and she didn't ask as she believed if she had to know they'd tell her.
Two weeks passed and Naseem still hasn't returned. Salma wrote her final WAEC paper today and was in a good mood.
She knocked on Salaha's room and opened the door.
