"Nadia" Alhaji umar said facing her,
"Yes baba" she replied facing downwards, she just couldn't look at him even if they were seated facing each other,
"Please look at me my daughter" he said,She slowly raised her head up to face the man who has been a father figure to her for the past 8 years, "Did I make a wrong choice by telling you to look up?" he asked, Nadia squeezed her face confusedly, not understanding what he meant, "Anytime I look at you, I'm always reminded of my late brother's face" he muttered sadly,
Nadia's heart raced faster at the mention of her father's name, she's still not completely over her parent death, The mere mention of their name always brings back her bad memories, Alhaji umar seems to notice her discomfort as she shifted uncomfortably, "Nadia, about the marriage-" he said, going straight to the reason he was seated in her room in the first place, "If you're not comfortable with it, it's fine you can decline it" he said, That statement alone was enough to excite Nadia to the brim, but unfortunately, it was short-lived, "I don't know if I should be saying this-" he said, debating on whether or not he should continue with his statement,"our company is experiencing some difficulties currently, the only people we can get help from are the Ahmad's, but they won't close the deal unless I give the hands of one of my daughters to them in marriage" he said sadly,
Nadia gauged her uncle's reaction and saw that he looked very disturbed, she could clearly notice the appearance of more wrinkles on his face. Even though he can never take the place of her father, she still respects and loves him because he always stands by her no matter what, she knew she just had to help in any way she can.
"I shouldn't have agreed to their condition in the first place" he added,
"I'll--" she tried to say, but her voice broke as she talked, so she coughed to clear her throat,"I'll marry him" she said more clearly.
Her uncle's eyes widened not expecting her reply, he was happy she agreed, but he was still bothered,"are you certain?" he asked her, "I'm not forcing you" he said to remind her again,
"Don't worry uncle, I'll do it" she said smiling at him. This is the least she can offer, at least it will make her feel less like a burden.
"Nagode sosai 'yata, Allah ya miki albarka (Thank you very much my daughter, may Allah bless you)" he said patting her head softly. She shyly looked down, not able to meet his gaze.
He was about to leave the room when he remembered, "please if insha Allah you get married into the Ahmad's family, don't let anyone know you aren't my real daughter" he said, She didn't know his reason for that, but she concurred nevertheless.

After praying asr prayer (afternoon prayer) Nadia sat in her room going through her Instagram feed when she stumbled across his page 'Abdallah Ahmad',She tapped on his profile to reveal all his post, she tapped on his newly posted picture. It was certainly an unaware shot taken during one of his conferences.
