Na jima ina karanta takardar hannuna ina maimaitawa. Amma Ibrahim baka yi min adalci ba, yanzu me kake so ince maka?  Yes or No?  Ni dai nasan koda wasa bazan tunkari Hafsat da sunan neman shawara ba. Na saka karanta takardar kamar me saka ran ganin ganin chanji a rubutun. Tabbas handwriting dinsa ne, kuma kamshin turarensa ne.

Da naga dai Ibrahim da gaske yake so yake yayi wa Amira tonon silili sai nace masa na yarda, maganar ta wuce, yace "kinyi alkawarin ba zaki kara tayar da maganar ba?" Nace "I promise" sannan ya juya ya fita. Yana fita Hafsat tace "well3, dama nace in tayi tsami zanji, 'yan class din nan duk mai son yaji wacece yazo in gaya masa" nan da nan duk suka tafi gurin Hafsat, na kalli Amira naga alamar tsoro a fuskarta, nayi sauri naje gurin Hafsat nace "Hafsat dan Allah ki bar maganar nan" tace "sai kinyi min alkawarin daga yau anti Hafsat zaki ke ce min" nace "done, anti Hafsat from today".

Next thing da nake so inyi magana akansa, duk da dai sai a next chapter za'a fi fahimtata sosai shine akan judging mutun ba tare da kasan sa ba. Never judge a book by its cover. Yawancin mutane suna da kirki, no matter the tribe, you just need to know them. Masu kudi da masu sarauta, in kaga wulakanci a tare dasu mostly daga gurin na kasansu ne ba daga su bane. You just need to take a deep breath and talk to them...

Next thing shine secrets in a relationship. In kuna so relationship din ku ya dore, never ever keep a secret from each other, never lie to each other. 

Ga 'yammata da samarin da suke tsoron relationship dinsu ba zai dore ba saboda banbancin yare, ko social status, do u try to make it work ko kuma a boye kuke yi? Just take a deep breath ku tunkari iyayenku da maganar, it may turn out easier than you imagine. Ita zuciya an halicceta da son wanda yake kyautata mata, ko wanne kabila ne shi, indai har zai juri kyautatawa iyayenki, yana nuna musu best behavior dinsa, ke kuma kullum kina nuna musu how much you love him, insha Allahu zaku ga chanji a gurinsu. But most importantly pray.

Duk wani abin zunubi zaki ga kyakykyawa ne, very tempting, dole sai ka kai zuciya nesa zaka hana kanka" nayi shiru ina lissafa maganar ta, but i know what I feel for Sultan is not lust, it is love. 

Bayan munje England ma haka ce ta kasance, kullum muna tare da Sultan a makaranta dan komawa yayi kamar shima student din ne. Kullum in muna tare sai nasan yadda nayi nayi masa nasiha ta sigar lumana, ina nuna masa this is right and this is wrong, amma ga mamaki na sai naga in aya na fara janyo masa sai ya karasa min, in hadisi na dauko sai ya gayamin wani irinsa, wato yana sane da duk abinda yake yi kenan.

He is nice and shine best friend dina a school dinnan" ya tsare ni da ido yace "amma kin san yana sonki" na sunkuyar da kaina nace "yes, but I don't love him, I love you". 

Sau da yawa sai in samu kaina da comparing Sultan da Ibrahim. Sam basu da alaka, kamanninsu sun sha ban ban, yayinda Ibrahim yake da sanyi Sultan kuma zafi ne dashi, Ibrahim ustaz ne sultan is the total opposite of ustaz, amma abinda yake bani mamaki shine lokacin da muna tare da ibrahim har rigima mukayi dashi akan taba ni duk da kuwa lokacin ina kwaila amma sultan ko da wasa bai taba kai hannun sa jikina ba.

Am on your magical mystery ride, 
And am so dizzy, don't know what hit me, but I will be alright. 

My head is under water but am breathing fine. 
You're beautiful and am out of my mind. 
Cos all of me, loves all of you. 

Love your curves and all your edges, 
All your perfect imperfections, 
Give your all to me, I will give my all to you. 
You're my end and my beginning, 
Even when I loose am winning, 
I will give you all of me, and you will give me all of you, of you 

Our cards are on the table and we are both showing hearts, 
Risking it although it is hard. 
Cos all of me loves all of you.............. 

How many times do I have to tell you, 
Even when you are frowning you are beautiful too, 
Even if the world keeps beating you down I will be around through every mood. 
You're my downfall, you're my muse, my worse distraction, my rhythm and blue, 
Can't stop singing it is ringing in my head for you..... 

Cos all of Me loves all You.

Nayi baya na fita daga packing lot din ina ganin sa ta mirror yana kallon motar, yayi noticing sunan da aka rubuta a gurin number "Sultan 2" .

Sai da nayi nisa da building din sannan na sauka daga kan titi nayi packing, na kifa kaina akan steering na kama kuka, what hurt me the most is the fact that Amira can betray me like that. Sometimes, the person you trust the most will hurt you the most.

Masoyan Maimoon ina gaishe ku baki daya, nima kuma ina sonku irin sosai dinnan. Ina ganin sakonnin ku ta WhatsApp da Facebook, masu bina private da masu turo wa ta group. Ina so ku fahimci abu biyu. Na farko Moon guda daya ce ba za'a raba ta a bawa kowa ba, dan haka dole wani ya samu kuma dole wani ya rasa. Dan haka at the end dole wani zai ga kamar ba'a kyauta masa ba. Abu na biyu kuma shine, tun kafin in fara rubuta labarin Maimoon na riga na tsara yadda zai kasance, yanzu kawai details din nake filling, kada wani yaga kamar labarin ina rubuta shine yadda zan farantawa wani. Idan kuka cigaba da bin Maimoon na tabbatar muku karshrn labarin zaiyi satisfying kowa insha Allah. Duk da dai ance shi dan adam ba'a iya masa.

Ina jin wayata tana ta ringing, kira na wajan goma kenan, amma ba zan iya dauka ba saboda ba zan iya magana ba.
