A Jinina Yake Book One Complete Hausa Novel English Translation
Abba quickly carried her in his arms and began walking toward Ammi’s room. He did not put her down until he reached the bed and laid her there.
He turned toward Ammi’s small fridge by the side, opened it, and brought out slightly cold water. Then he moved close to Lulu.
He poured a little water into his hand and gently rubbed it on her face. She did not move at all, as if nothing had touched her.
Ammi’s heart beat harder. She climbed onto the bed, lifted Lulu’s head, and placed it on her lap just as Abba rubbed water on Lulu’s face for the second time.
Lulu released a heavy sigh, then began opening her wet eyes slowly.
Her eyes first landed on Abba.
Abba closed his eyes and released a breath of relief as he said, “Alhamdulillah.”
After that, he simply stood up and left the room. His heart was already beginning to break because of his daughters, and he did not want to remain there long enough to start thinking that he had done something wrong.
Ammi immediately pulled Lulu into her arms, hugging her with indescribable joy. Didi also could not remain still. She moved closer and joined the hug.
Ammi held both of her daughters together in her arms.
Lulu Remembers What Happened
It was then Lulu remembered what had happened earlier. Her heart beat with great force, and she quickly raised her head. Her voice trembled even more than before, while tears gathered in her beautiful eyes.
Her hands shook as she moved away from Ammi’s body and said, “Ammi, I had a dream, right? Ammi, it was a terrible dream, right? Please tell me it was a dream and not real. Please, Ammi.”
She finished speaking while shaking her head, then burst into fresh tears.
Ammi pulled her back into her arms again. She also felt new tears rising in her own eyes.
“Be patient, Afaaf. Stop crying. This crying will only give you a headache.”
Lulu cried harder and said, “Ammi, you have not said yes. You have not told me it is not true. What kind of dream is this? What kind of terrible dream is this? How can something like this even happen?”
She continued, “Ammi, let me go to Abba so he can confirm to me that he was only joking with us. Ammi, by Allah, I will never commit any offense in school again. Ammi, I have stopped. By Allah, I have stopped. I will never do it again. I know that is what Abba wants to hear from me, and I have said it now. Please, Ammi, tell him I have stopped. By Allah, I have repented and returned to Allah.”
She ended her words with another round of crying.
At that moment, Didi felt as if she was not the one who had been told she had been married off to someone. She felt as if she had no problem of her own except the pain of her younger sister.
The condition she was seeing Lulu in had covered every other worry. Lulu’s crying was frightening her, and she was speaking like someone who was no longer fully in control of herself.
Ammi said, “Enough. Keep quiet, I said.”
As much as Lulu did not want to, she had no choice but to remain in Ammi’s arms. She cried openly until she became tired, then her crying turned into sobbing. Eventually, exhaustion took over, and she fell asleep.
Didi’s Hidden Pain
Only then did Ammi release a deep sigh. She raised her head and looked at Didi, who was sitting beside her.
Didi’s eyes were swollen with tears. She no longer looked like herself.
Ammi stretched her hand toward her. Without wasting time, Didi moved closer, and Ammi held both of them together again.
That was when Didi finally got the chance to burst into heartbreaking tears.
Ammi said softly, “Afrah, are you also going to break my heart?”
Didi shook her head, but she could not stop the tears. With difficulty, she opened her mouth and said, “Ammi, Abba…”
Then she became quiet.
After a moment, she continued, “Ammi, I do not know the person Abba has married me to. Abba did not tell me, Ammi.”
Ammi closed her eyes briefly. Then she gently placed her hand on Didi.
She said, “I am hoping for patience from you, Didi. Please, whoever your father has married you to, be patient. He will never choose something that will harm you.”
She continued, “If you also become troubled, then Afaaf will find more reason to lose herself. That means from both sides, Abba will regret what he did, even though what he did is not wrong in his view. But if you are patient, you will guide your sister back to the right path, just as you always do.”
Ammi added gently, “So stop crying. You know your head will soon start hurting.”
Didi could not say anything. Her heart only continued beating. She sat quietly, thinking about how their lives would begin from that moment. Marriage at their young age, and to a husband they did not know; someone who did not love them and whom they did not love.
“Allah will bring us a way out,” Ammi said, as if she knew what Didi was thinking.
At the Hospital
“Where is my son, Yallaɓai? What happened to him? How did he end up in this hospital?” Mom asked all the questions at once.
Daddy released a sigh before saying, “All these questions at the same time?”
She looked at him and said, “Please, I want to see my son. Where is he?”
“Let us go,” Daddy said, walking ahead.
Without wasting time, Mom followed him anxiously. All she wanted was to see her precious son and know what was wrong with him.
“My boy,” she said, placing her hand on Bad’s face as he lay there, still and silent.
When she saw that he did not move, she looked at Daddy and asked, “Is he sleeping? What happened to him?”
Daddy said, “Calm down. He will wake up later, Insha Allah.”
She said, “You still have not told me what happened to him, Yallaɓai.”
Before Daddy could say anything, the doctor entered the room. After greeting Daddy respectfully, he moved to where Bad was lying and examined him carefully.
Then he looked at Daddy and asked with respect, “He still has not moved?”
Daddy replied, “Yes.”
The doctor said, “Okay. Continue praying. As we said, by Allah’s will, he should wake up later.”
Daddy said, “May Allah make it so.”
Mom looked at the doctor and asked, “Doctor, what is wrong with my son?”
Daddy looked at her, then turned back to the doctor and said, “You may leave.”
The doctor replied, “Okay, sir,” and left the room.
Daddy looked at Mom and said, “What is more important is for you to sit down and pray for him to wake up, not to keep asking questions.”
Mom said weakly, “Has it become that serious?”
Daddy replied, “Do not panic.”
She released a sigh because she realized no one was going to explain everything to her yet. She found a place and sat down, looking at her son with deep pity.
Abeey Returns Home
“Welcome back,” Ummeey said, looking at Abeey.
“Thank you,” he replied as he looked for a place to sit.
Abeey smiled and said, “I know you are eager to hear what I have to say.”
She forced a small smile and said, “Of course, Mallam. You went out when you were not fully well, and this matter sounds more like a strange story.”
He said, “Calm down. I feel very fine, especially because one of my wishes has been fulfilled today. I have married off Affan.”
Ummeey looked at him in surprise and said, “Mallam, was it really true?”
Abeey shook his head and said, “This is not something one jokes about. Truly, today I married him off. So your wish has also been fulfilled. Was that not what you wanted?”
She said in amazement, “Subhanallah.”
Then she added, “Alhamdulillah. May Allah place goodness in it. May He give them peaceful living and unite their hearts. As for me, I am here waiting for my daughter-in-law to arrive.”
She ended with a smile.
Abeey smiled and said, “Ameen, Ameen.”
Questions About Affan’s Marriage
Ummeey then said, “But Mallam, do you think Affan can handle marriage? All these responsibilities that come with marriage are not small. I know people will not just give us their daughter without the usual traditional arrangements.”
Abeey sighed and said, “That is true.”
Then he added, “Allah will provide a way, Insha Allah.”
Ummeey said, “May Allah make it so.”
“Ameen,” Abeey replied.
Then he asked, “Has he still not come in?”
Ummeey answered, “Not yet. He already said he would be late.”
Abeey said, “Whenever he returns, tell him I want to see him, even if I am not at home.”
She replied, “Alright, Mallam.”
