Shekaru biyar suka zo suka wuce. A cikin su abubuwa da dama sun faru, na farko Hardo da Uwani duk sun rasu sati daya a tsakaninsu, Hardo ne ya fara rasuwa munje Kollere zaman

It was so hard living with a man while my heart belongs to another. Another din da ban ma san inda yake ba, babu amo babu labarin sa daga shi har yaya ladi. Sometimes sai in samu kaina da tambayar ko wanne hali yake ciki? Ko ya samu admission din yayi karatun? Ko rayuwa tana tafiyar masa dai dai ko kuma akasin haka?

Na mike nabi bayansa idona blurry with tears, yaushe wannan zubar hawayen nawa zai kare? Indai har nayi baki, ko kuma shi yayi baki, to kuwa tabbas sai ya wulakanta ni a gabansu, shi yasa har banaso inyi baki indai tana gida.

Ni ba saba shiga cikin irin wadannan mutanen nayi ba” ya bude baki yace “salon a raina ni? Ace bani da iyali? Ki shirya kawai muje Allah dai ya kiyaye ni da jin kunya”.

Shi ya dauko Subay’a daga islamiyya ya kaita makotan mu inda naje ajiyeta sanda ina school. Sannan ya dawo yace min in nayi sallar magrib in shirya shima zaije ya shirya.

Am sure babu wanda zaizo da mata irin tawa”.

A hankali muke tafiya, kowa da abinda yake zuciyarsa. Ni tawa zuciyar wani irin bugawa take yi wanka har daci naje ji a bakina, a tsorace nake sosai kamar in bude motar in fita a guje. Har muka je gurin, wannan shine karo na na farko da naje companyn Abatcha Motors. Dare ne kuma kusan duk fitulun gurin a kashe suke saboda basa son idan ogan yazo yayi tunanin wani abu, dan haka a lokacin bazan iya adar da komai dangane da yanayin gurin ba, baya muka zagaya mukayi packing, nan naga duk kowa yana packing ana ta fitowa kowa da matarsa ko budurwar sa. Saghir ya juyo ya kalle ni yaga yadda nake a tsorace yace “bafa cinye ki za’ayi ba, just do as i do. Duk wanda kika ga nayi wa magana sai ki gaishe shi, ba kuma cewa nayi ki durkusa har kasa kina gaishe da mutane ba” na gyada masa kai muka fita a tare, ya zagayo ya zura hannunsa cikin nawa muka shiga cikin mutane. Faran faran muke gaisawa da mutane kowa yana introducing matarsa, Saghir proudly yake nuna ni a matsayin matarsa, ina kuma lura da yadda idanuwa suke bina da kallon yabawa. Sai da aka gama gaggaisawa sannan muka zagaya muka shiga cikin building din gaba ki daya, nan ma babu fitulu sai guda daya dan haka dimly kowa ya samu guri ya zauna ana jiran wanda ya tafi tahowa da oga su dawo.una nan zaune ana dan hira kadan kadan suka shigo, sai aka yi saurin kashe fitila dayar da aka kunna gurin yayi duhu daga ki daya. Muna jinsu suka karaso suna yan maganganu. And my heart stopped at the sound of the voice I heard.

Sukayi unlocking kofar suka shigo cikin inda muke, and I heard one of them said “Mubarak let’s hurry up and do this. I am kind of tired” clearly in Sadauki’s voice. Na zare hannuna daga cikin na Saghir na mike tsaye da sauri “Sadauki!” Na fada under my breath. Sai kuma lokaci daya fitulun gurin suka kama gaba-daya yan gurin kuma suka hada baki wajan ambaton “surprise!!” Then I saw Sadauki a tsaye a gaba na, idanunsa cikin nawa.

Komai ya tsaya min. Numfashi na ya dauke, na saki jakar dana ke rike da ita a hannuna and ikon Allah ne kadai yasa nima ban bi jakar na fadi ba. Sadaukin ne dai a tsaye yana kallona, my Sadauki. But he has changed alot, he has grown more bigger and more muscular, his dark skin shining as brightly as his bright eyes. He looked more matured, more handsome, more confident and he looked rich. Very rich. 

In a flash of second aka zagaye shi, kowa yana kokarin yi masa magana hakan yayi blocking view tsakanin mu, “what is Sadauki doing here?” Shine tambayar dana fara yiwa kaina a lokacin da numfashi na ya dawo jikina. Maganar Saghir da naji a kusa dani ita ta dawo dani hayyacina har na tuna me ya kawo mu gurin, but banji mai yaxe ba saboda voice dinsa sound so faraway kamar daga miles yake yi min maganar, the only sound da yayi filling kunnena shine na Sadauki yana gaisawa da mutane. Na girgiza kaina, trying to clear my head nace “me kace?” Tsaki kawai yayi, ya kama hannuna muma muka shiga mutanen da suka zagaye Sadauki suna gaishe shi tare dayi masa congratulations na kammala karatu. “karatu?” Na tambayi kaina. Menene hadin Sadauki da gurin nan wai? Mu ba zuwa mukayi mu taya ogan su Saghir murnar dawowa daga karatun sa ba? Ya naga kuma anayi wa Sadauki murna?

Ban samu amsar tambaya ta ba na ganmu tsaye a gaban Sadauki ni da Saghir, Saghir ya mika masa hannu yace “congratulations Mr Abatcha, and welcome back to Kano” sukayi shaking hands, nabi hannayen nasu da kallo sannan na sauke ido na akan Sadauki, trying to digest what I was beginning to understand.
