Bayan tafiyar su Diyam, ya jima zaune shi kadai, yana ta sakawa yana kwancewa yana kuma zukar hayaki zuwa hunhun sa. Sai da ya ga kwalin ya kare sannan ya jefar da shi ya duba agogon hannunsa yayi tsaki ya mike. Cab ya tare zuwa hotel din da ya ke. Yana shiga dakin ya zauna akan gado yana kare wa dakin kallo kamar yau ya fara ganinsa, idonsa ya sauka akan hoton wata yar kyakkyawar budurwa akan study table dinsa tana murmushi. Ya lumshe idonsa ya bude. She have been the reason for everything daya ke ciki a yanzu, for all his pain and his agony. Ya dauko wayarsa yayi dialing number dinta for the hundredth time amma yanzu ma kamar ko yaushe bata dauka ba. He wandered me yasa ba tayi blocking dinsa ba dan gwara ya kira bata shiga ba akan ya kira ba'a dauka ba, meaning ta gani kenan, meaning tasan all what he is going through but she just doesn't care.

Fatima sunanta, Khausar suke kiranta, he had been in love with her for as long as he can remember, maybe tun da yasan menene love din but he failed to tell her. Daga baya kawai sai yaji labarin wai zata auri brother dinsa, that has been the beginning of his agony, wannan ne asalin dalilin fara shan sigarin sa. Yayi iyakacin kokarinsa tun a lokacin dan ganin cewa ya cire ta a ransa and he succeeded a little, but then sai auren baiyi da brother din nasa ba and his brother ended up marrying another. Wannan turn of events din ba karamin faranta masa rai yayi ba, he saw it as another chance na auren wadda yake so.

Shekara guda kenan da faruwar hakan. A cikin shekarar ne kuma yayi failing terribly in his course of study a Abuja, amma sai ya alakanta hakan da cewa dan baya son course din ne, yace yafi son yabi footprints din maternal grandmother dinsa wadda ta kasance lawyer, da kyar yayi iyakacin kokarinsa har ya samu aka barshi ya taho UK karatu duk da cewa iyayensa basu so hakan ba sunfi son ya zauna tare dasu amma saida ya taho tare da daurin gindin kakar tasa, yayi hakane saboda ita, saboda Khausar, for she now lives in UK tare da auntyn su. But sai me kuma? He realized bayan zuwansa cewa ai she is already dating his cousin kuma, wannan yasa ya daura damarar ganin ko sama da kasa zasu hadu sai ya raba wannan relationship din, wannan ya jawo rigima ba yar kadan ba tsakanin sa da cousin dinsa Ayan and he failed miserably. A karshe Khausar looked into his eyes and said "I will never marry you ko mazan duniya sun kare", and that made him mad, so mad that when his aunty tries to resolve the issue he looked into her eyes and said "go to hell".

But wannan duk ba shine babban problem dinsa ba. Problem dinsa shine satin sa daya da barin gidan auntyn sa parents dinsa sukayi blocking dinsa out of their family bank account.

Yasan wannan duk hikimar Mami ce, they want to fish him out ya kawo kansa ya karbi laifinsa, shi kuma yana jin tsoron yadda hukuncin sa zai zama, ba zaiji da dadi a gurin daddyn sa ba. Kuma yasan he have lost Khausar for good. Yayi biyu babu. Abinda yake bukata a yanzu shine karfin gwuiwar facing family dinsa, accepting mistake dinsa da kuma repenting, but to do that yana bukatar courage, yana bukatar wani yayi masa magana at least ko fada ne ayi masa a gaya masa yayi ba dai dai ba.

Bai san mai yasa yarinyar dazu ta fado masa a rai ba, Diyam. Ya kwanta ya rufe ido yana tunano fuskarta, tabbas tana da courage. From her looks, yadda take ware kanta daga cikin mutane zuwa yadda turancinta bai gama nuna ba yasan cewa she is from a poor background, maybe irin yayan talakawan nan ne da gwamnati take dauka take basu scholarship suke tahowa kasashen waje suyi karatu. But she really does have courage, daga yadda tayi magana rannan a class da kuma yadda tayi facing dinsa straight in the eyes ta gaya masa maganganu. Har dare yarinyar tana cikin ransa, amma kuma ya kasa yanke mata hukunci a ransa.

He obviously is distracted, confused maybe" Murjanatu ta harare ta tace "ni dai babu ruwana. Daga tausayi kuma sai muji wata magana ta daban. Kinsan in yaya yaji wannan maganar zai iya harbo nuclear bomb ya tarwatsa Oxford gaba-daya" Diyam ta daga kafada tace "Allah yasa uranium zai harbo ba nuclear bomb ba. I will talk to whoever I want to talk to" Murjanatu tace "you are not going to give my brother a break are you?" Diyam ta mike tsaye tace "no i am not, har sai yayi abinda nace masa" Murjanatu tayi murmushi tace "maybe baki san shi ba kamar yadda kike tunani" Diyam ta wuce daki da sauri tana jin zafi yana taso wa a zuciyarta.
