Zuria Daya Book One Complete Hausa Novel English Translation
On a Saturday morning, the city of Kano woke up under heavy cold and mist. Since daybreak, no sunlight had appeared. The whole city remained calm and dim, giving the residents a pleasant, peaceful feeling.
She was dressed in casual clothes: a long jeans skirt that reached down to her feet, paired with a small top. She also wore a jacket with thick fur around the sleeves and neck, soft and fluffy like cat fur. On her head was a winter cap that tried to hide the fullness of her thick hair.
She pushed open the gate of their house and stepped out into their estate. The whole place was empty. No one was outside.
She closed her eyes and breathed out slowly. The air she exhaled immediately turned into visible mist.
Sadness appeared on her beautiful face.
In her heart, she began praying that Allah would bring the time when her dream and desire would become reality—the day she would wake up and see their estate alive again, just as it used to be when their whole family lived together in one place.
The Silent Estate
She continued walking, passing the rows of houses she had grown up seeing in that condition. For a long time, she had been trying to understand why they were left like that.
There were things she could still remember faintly from her memory. In the past, she knew every house had been full of people. But she could not understand why everything had suddenly become empty.
She used to ask questions again and again until she became tired and stopped, because no one ever gave her an explanation that would help her understand anything.
So she gave up trying to uncover the story behind the houses.
One thing bothered her most: since the time they were growing up, only two houses in the estate were occupied by people from their family. It was as if they had no other relatives in the world except themselves.
Still, she could not call herself someone living in hardship, because she lacked nothing in life. They were always happy in their home, enjoying comfort and peace.
But what truly disturbed her was the way her friends often asked her questions about the empty houses and their relationship to them.
Without even knowing when she said it, she once told them that the houses belonged to some members of their family who had all left the country and were living abroad.
That lie remained heavy in her heart.
It made the matter disturb her even more, and her love for her lineage grew stronger. She began to feel as if she missed them, even though she was not sure whether what she felt was true or not.
Deep inside, she felt as if she had lost people she once lived with long ago. But because no one had ever told her anything like that, she began thinking it might simply be her imagination or a personal wish she had placed in her mind.
A Hidden Past
The joy, comfort, and sweet life they enjoyed in their two houses often made her forget the thoughts that came to her mind.
Whenever she tried to say something about what she was thinking, she noticed that no one paid attention to her words.
Even before she grew older, she used to speak to her parents about it, but they would distract her and treat it as childish talk.
Because of that, she left the matter in her heart and began thinking it was only her own foolish imagination.
Gradually, she too began forgetting it. She focused on her own activities, since no one in her family ever sat down to pay attention to the things she kept thinking about.
But truly, her heart told her that they did not want her to know anything about the past. They did not want anyone to sit with her and remind her of her childhood memories.
She stayed outside for a long time, walking around the estate.
Suddenly, an idea came to her.
She turned and returned to their large house, heading straight to her grandmother’s room.
Granny’s Room
“Salam, Granny,” she greeted.
She found her grandmother lying down, covered with a soft blanket, watching Sunna TV on satellite.
Quickly, she went closer and pulled away the blanket covering her grandmother while laughing.
She said, “Granny, is the cold in this city really so serious that you entered the room and hid yourself like this? Come out. Let us walk around outside together, even if it is only to stretch your body.”
