Nana Does Not Want Them to Find Her There

“I do not want them to arrive and find me sitting here,” I said.

Sister Seemah looked directly at me.

“What wrong thing have you done that makes you afraid of facing them?” she asked.

I shook my head, indicating that I had done nothing.

“Then return to your seat,” she instructed.

I did not argue with her. I quietly sat down again.

Mama Amina looked at all of us with concern.

“Please, children, do not create a problem that will become too difficult for us to handle,” she warned.

“You can see that we are already occupied with caring for the sick Hajiya.”

Hajiya Falmata Arrives in Anger

At that exact moment, Hajiya Falmata entered the room in a furious state.

“What kind of nonsense is this?” she demanded.

“I have been moving from one place to another simply because I wanted to see my daughter.”

The moment Islaha saw her mother, she quickly rose to her feet and ran towards her.

She immediately broke down in tears.

Hajiya Falmata held her tightly and began asking questions.

“What happened to you? What did they do to you? Why are you crying?”

Islaha shook her head and attempted to hide the seriousness of the situation.

“Mommy, everything is fine,” she replied.

However, her tears made it obvious that everything was far from fine.

The Family Discovers That Turaki Divorced Islaha

Hajiya Falmata turned angrily towards Turaki.

“Did that disrespectful man divorce you?” she asked Islaha.

Pointing at Turaki, she continued:

“Why are you still staying in Seemah’s house after he divorced you?”

Mama Amina looked completely confused.

“I do not understand,” she said.

She turned towards Turaki.

“Turaki, are you the one who divorced Islaha? What reason did you have for doing that?”

Before he answered, Alisha’s eyes moved towards Islaha’s stomach.

The pregnancy had become too large and obvious to conceal.

Alisha stared at Turaki in shock.

“You waited until she became pregnant before divorcing her?” she demanded.

Turaki Denies Being Responsible for Islaha’s Pregnancy

Only then did I raise my head and look towards them.

Turaki also lifted his face and calmly studied everyone in the room.

“She became pregnant by herself,” he replied coldly.

“I am not the person who made her pregnant. Ask her yourselves.”

He pointed towards Islaha.

“That pregnancy is the reason I divorced her.”

His words created a brief silence before Hajiya Falmata exploded with anger.

“To hell with you, Turaki!” she shouted.

“What exactly do you mean? Are you saying that the child inside Islaha does not belong to you?”

She continued insulting him before Mama Amina intervened.

“Your problem is that you immediately begin insulting people,” Mama Amina said.

“Please, Hajiya Falmata, calm down so that we can properly understand what happened.”

Hajiya Falmata Accuses the Family of Plotting Against Islaha

Hajiya Falmata refused to calm down.

“Amina, leave me alone,” she replied angrily.

“You already knew everything because I found my daughter staying inside your house.”

“You also knew about the plan they were preparing against her, yet none of you said anything until now.”

She looked towards Turaki again.

“Yes, I insulted him, and I will continue insulting him.”

She was convinced that Turaki and his family had secretly planned to disgrace Islaha.

Sister Seemah Defends Turaki’s Actions

Sister Seemah immediately rejected Hajiya Falmata’s accusation.

“We did not plan anything against Islaha,” she explained.

“What we did was protect her dignity and conceal her shame.”

She looked towards Islaha.

“Turaki discovered that Islaha was pregnant, but he kept the matter secret because he did not want her to be publicly disgraced.”

“Instead of appreciating the fact that he protected her reputation, you came here and began insulting him.”

Hajiya Falmata and Alisha spoke at almost the same time.

“Then whose pregnancy is it?” they demanded.

“What exactly are you people trying to say?”

Alisha Accuses Sister Seemah of Hatred

Alisha turned angrily towards Sister Seemah.

“Seemah, I never knew that you possessed such a wicked heart,” she said.

“Are you also involved in creating this false accusation against Islaha?”

She shook her head in disappointment.

“I did not know that your hatred for us had become this serious.”

Sister Seemah immediately rose to her feet in anger.

“Hatred?” she repeated.

“What exactly would make me jealous or bitter towards you?”

She began listing everything she possessed.

“Do you eat better food than I do? Do you wear better clothes? Do you have a better job, more education or a better marriage?”

“If you are not superior to me in any of these things, then what reason would I have to be jealous of you?”

Sister Seemah Demands That Islaha Reveal the Father

Sister Seemah pointed towards Islaha.

“She is your daughter, so ask her yourselves,” she said.

“Why have none of you questioned her properly?”

“Ask her who is responsible for the pregnancy inside her.”

She reminded them of the accusations they had previously spread against Turaki and Nana.

“The terrible lies you spread about Turaki and his wife, Nana, have now returned to your own family.”

“The same scandal you tried to place upon them has now fallen upon your daughter and the man who encouraged you to spread it.”

Her words suggested that Hajiya Falmata and Alisha had previously attempted to damage Turaki and Nana’s marriage through false accusations.

Now, the truth surrounding Islaha’s pregnancy appeared to be exposing their own family.

Mama Amina Demands an Explanation Everyone Can Understand

The argument became increasingly heated as everyone spoke angrily at once.

Mama Amina finally raised her voice.

“Seemah, Turaki, both of you should calm down,” she ordered.

“Explain everything to me clearly and in simple Hausa that I can understand.”

She wanted the accusations, divorce and pregnancy explained from the beginning without insults or confusion.

Everyone’s attention now turned towards Turaki, Sister Seemah and Islaha.

The truth could no longer remain hidden.

A Pregnancy That Divides the Entire Family

The confrontation had transformed a quiet family meeting into an explosive conflict.

Turaki insisted that the unborn child did not belong to him and claimed that the pregnancy was the reason he ended the marriage.

Hajiya Falmata and Alisha believed Islaha was being framed, while Sister Seemah maintained that Turaki had protected her dignity instead of exposing her publicly.

The only person capable of ending the argument was Islaha herself.

She would have to reveal who was responsible for her pregnancy and explain why she had remained silent.
