The truth finally reveals

Not Edited

" When am I going to start attending classes?." Boddo asked, looking at him. Kamal at first doesn't want to say anything regarding this as she has already listened to the conversation he had with the principal and she's to start tomorrow. ' why is she asking me again?.'

" You heard everything so, you're starting tomorrow an..." " Ye!." She started shouting, interrupting him. Kamal nods and continue driving until she got tired of it. They finally arrived at the mansion. But the disturbing part is that they arrived at the same time with Alh. Gidado and his brother Ardo.Ardo is shocked to see Kamal and Boddo coming out of the car at the same time same car.

Alh. Gidado is also shocked to see them both together. ' where has he taking her to? Why is he with her?.' he muttered under his breath. He's sweating a lot as everything he has been hiding will come out to light to his brother today, he couldn't get out of the car as everything is happening so quickly. Ardo quickly went out of the car. Boddo seeing her Father standing hurriedly rushed to him running and calling out his name. Ardo who's busy standing like a statue watching the young man who's just like one of their sons exactly like Datti and Manga at the same time couldn't decide who he looks like but he knows he must be their blood.

Kamal who's so happy to meet his Bappah for the first time. Keep walking towards him smiling. Kamal is so happy to have finally met with Bappah Ardo. ' Why's he staring at me like that? Was it because he has never seen me face to face before.' He muttered underneath him.

' Why is Father not saying anything to me? Why did he keep on staring at grump...' " Who is that?." Ardo hurriedly asked, motioning to Kamal with his finger. Kamal is stunned by Ardo's actions and the way he keeps on shaking his hands at him like he was seeing a ghost or something scary. Alh. Gidado quickly got out of the car and, went straight to Ardo.

" I'm asking you Gidado. Who's this young man?." He asked for the second time, at the top of his voice. Haj. Shatu who was busy walking forward and backward heard the sound and quickly rushed to the scene. Before Gidado could say a word to Ardo the rest of the family is outside watching. " Let's go in first brother." Alh. Gidado hurriedly said, trying to distract him.

" Good evening Bappah," Kamal said, going down on his knees. Ardo wants to respond, but Gidado hurriedly grabbed his brother's hand. " Let's go in, I will explain every..." " Come inside with us." He said pointing at Kamal. Haj. Aisha who's busy dying inside as what she has been hiding is going to come out. Wud'i went straight to her mother seeing her wiping. But before she could reach out to her she has fainted already, luckily Kamal was just in time to hold her in his arms.

Tension rises as Haj. Aisha suddenly fall sick. Everyone's attention is on her. Ardo couldn't utter a word regarding Kamal due to the situation they were all in. Wud'i tried calling Datti but none of the siblings can get a hold of him, and her situation is getting worse by the minute. " Dad, can we take her to the hospital?." Kamal asked. " Alh. Gidado didn't respond to him but rather continue checking on his wife's health.

Luckily after some hours, she got out of the danger. None of them thought she will survive it. Thankfully Jauro's stayed back at the hospital with his son which's why he couldn't return home with the two brothers. Everyone was able to sleep but, a few people in the house couldn't rinse their eyes. Kamal is also one of them, the thought of his father's brother not knowing him and the sudden situation couldn't let him sleep.

Saturday 5 am...

Ardo came out of the guest room but was amazed that no one is awake to pray at the prayer time, not even his the owner of the house. He was about to head out when he heard some noises coming from outside. He quickly opened the door and rushed out only to saw Kamal going out of the house. He was busy talking to the gate man who was busy greeting him.

" Ah! Kamal, you're going out?." He asked.

Kamal nodded his head. " Yes Bappah, I am heading to the mosque, am almost late." Ardo smiles at him nodding his head. " Alright, let's go together then, I was busy wondering who to take with me and, if it's safe or not. As no one is awake not even Gidado." Ardo stated heading out with Kamal.

Kamal feels at ease with the way Ardo is talking to him. But he's not amazed that no one's awake as it's no one goes to the mosque in the house he usually goes by himself alone. They prayed together in the mosque.

6:24 am...

Ardo got up and asked Kamal to go back together with him. On their way, Ardo decides to ask Kamal about himself. " Kamal where are you from?." Ardo asked. Kamal is stunned that his own Bappah is asking him that, he felt very sad that Ardo does not know him which means in his village no one knows about him. But why? That's the question that's going revolving in his head.

Ardo notices Kamal's silence after he asked him, and felt bad for making him uncomfortable. Just like that Ardo feels so much closeness to Kamal that he feels Kamal is like his son. " I'm so..." " It's okay." Kamal hurriedly said interrupting Ardo, while he quickly wipe his tears.

" Kamal, you're crying? I'm so s..." Kamal giggles a little bit. " I'm not sad because of you Bappah, I was sad because you didn't recognize me as your blood," Kamal said in a low voice. " My blood?." Ardo repeated the last statement adding a question mark to it. Kamal laugh " Yes Bappah, I'm the first son of your brother Gidado and Haj. Aisha." " What! What are you saying to me now?." Ardo asked with his voice trembling all the way.

" You can ask your brother and sister-in-law, about my identity." Kamal sadly stated leaving Ardo standing at the gate like a statue. The gateman was amazed by Ardo standing all alone and he needs to close it. " Salamu Alaikum!." He said gently, but no response, until he repeatedly said. Ardo quickly went in back to the guest room with so much thought of what Kamal told him. And he can see the resemblance between them in Kamal.

Ardo couldn't concentrate on anything, he kept on walking up and down waiting for his brother to show up. But no one shows up until 8 am Nana and Boddo went to his room. They both greeted him and told him is time for breakfast. He was amazed by how they do things in the city. He went down to the dining with them. Boddo was busy making him laugh with her stories about the city.

Everyone in the dining has one thing or the other in their mind. Nothing is said regarding Kamal who's with them having his breakfast. " I'm done!." Boddo said, looking at Kamal who was busy with his phone after finishing his breakfast. " Okay." He responds, without looking.

" Why are you telling him? Are you going somewhere this early that I can see you're loo..." " They're going nowhere." Haj. Aisha quickly interrupts Maman Nana who's busy talking and looking at their husband at the same time, trying to create a conflict between the two.

" I'm taking her to school." He said again, looking at his phone. If not for his voice you wouldn't believe he's the one talking. " Which school?." Haj. Aisha asked, looking around. " I have taking her to school yesterday and everything is ready so, she's starting to.." " On whose permission did you do that?." Alh. Gidado asked.

Kamal got off his chair without a word and headed to the door. " I'm leaving Mom." He hurriedly said, walking out. " And you, meet me outside." He added and left them in amazement. " Shatu! Did you ask him to take her to any school? How dare he displayed this sort of brazen behavior in front of m..." " Calm down Gidado, and you hurried up and meet your brother," Ardo said, permitting Boddo to go.

Boddo couldn't move an inch seeing her Uncle Bappah in such a condition. " But bro..." " Let her go and, I want to see both of you and Aisha." He said leaving the dining. Alh. Gidado looks very furious at the moment. Before some mins, everyone left the dining as they all fear his anger more than anything.

Mins later...

" I'm so ashamed of you Gidado. How can you hide his existence from me? Your son our blood, how can you do that to me all these years?." Ardo furiously stated. Alh. Gidado is left with no choice but to tell his brother everything regarding Kamal. Ardo listened to everything they told him regarding his birth and how long he has not been with the family, even though Haj. Aisha does not approve of letting him know all about his mistakes. Gidado does not bother as he doesn't regard him as his son.

" I heard everything and, I have understood your reasons but, what you did to that poor child is unacceptable Gidado." Ardo said, looking at Gidado. " Yes Gidado, even though you're not his biological father he doesn't deserve any of that treatment from you. Islamically he's your son, and you have done all a father can do to his child for him, you brought him up. Has Jauro known any of this or even share his responsibility with you? If no then he's yours and no one else's." Ardo added.

" But bro..." " Do not say much Gidado. Have ever thought about him getting into the wrong hand or getting into some wrong deeds, have you? Or have you ever thought of Aishatu as his mother? Is she happy separated from her son?." Ardo asked. All. Gidado couldn't argue with his brother, he nods his head. " To what I have seen that boy is good and deserves to be acknowledged as our own like he is and, I don't want Jauro to know any of this. Kamal is your son no matter what. So do not mistreat him ever again or do any injustice towards him, and I want you to promise me you will never do it again." Ardo gently stated.

That's how the conversation continues. Haj. Aishatu is very pleased by how Ardo carefully solved the issue between the two now, she only hoped her Husband will truly accept Kamal as the rest of their children.

Hmmm, Will Kamal ever come to know of the truth about his origin? How long will Jauro continue to see Datti as his son not Kamal? What will happen when the two meet with each other? Where's Meenal and why's Datti taking so long to come back? Lookslike Kamal getting close to Boddo...... Let's keep moving. Don't forget to drop your comments and votes👌
