" You said you have something important well, I'm listening." Kamal said looking at his phone screen. Dr. Haydar nod his head with a little smile, he sighed heavily. Kamal quickly look at him surprisingly.

" What's with that? And why are you giving those looks?." Kamal hurried stated keeping his phone on the table.

" Here!." Haydar said, extending his hand with the papers handing it to Kamal. Kamal is stunned by Haydar behaviors today. He extend his hand and received them gently. He opened the black documents staring at Haydar who's head is looking down. Which shows Kamal how serious what's inside is.

Before he could start reading his phone started ringing, even though he wishes to ignored it but, he couldn't as the person calling is more important than anything in his life. Haydar is amazed by how Kamal dropped the document to answer a call.

" Do not tell me is time?." He said, looking at his wrist watch. " Oh not again!." He said gotten up the chair. " I'm on my way right now!." He said sounding very serious. " It seems our meets has end for the day. If you don't mind we can pend it now tomorrow we can carry on." He said, rushing out. " But is imp...." Before he complete his words Kamal's already gone.

Haydar hit the table with his hand furious. He has been trying to muster the courage to this point but, it went all wrong again. " What can be more important than this? Who can this person be to got all your attention with just one ringing? My god!."  Haydar  continue throwing tantrum as if he's with someone not a lone.

Boddo was waiting outside her school gates, looking nervously at her watch. She had been waiting for her cousin brother, Kamal, for almost half an hour now. Kamal had promised to pick her up from school that day, but he was already late.

As she stood there, she started to wonder why Kamal had agreed to pick her up in the first place. " why's he not here." She whispered angrily, looking around with her tired face.

Boddo continues to for Kamal to come and pick her up. But as the minutes ticked by, she started to get worried. Kamal had never been late before, and she couldn't help but wonder what was keeping him.

After waiting for another 10 minutes, Boddo decided to take matters into her own hands. " Boddo is your Mr. Grumpy late today?." Naina asked, rolling her eyes balls up and down.

"I don't know Naina, he has never been this late before," Boddo replied. "Why don't you come with me and my brother? We're heading that way, and we can drop you off at home."

Boddo hesitated for a moment. She had never met Naina's brother before, but she didn't want to be stranded outside her school any longer. "Okay, sure," she said. "I'll come with you guys but, I'm a little bit scared." Boddo said as she's afraid of Kamal anger. " Oh dear! Come on, is his fault have he arrived on time you wouldn't have to." Naina said.

A few minutes later, Naina's car pulled up outside the school gates. Boddo got in the backseat, feeling a little nervous as Naina's brother, Khalid, turned around to greet her. "Hi, Fulani Boddo," Khalid said, smiling warmly at her. "I've heard a lot about you from Naina. It's nice to finally meet you in person."

Boddo smiled back, feeling a little more at ease. As they drove towards her home, the conversation flowed easily. Boddo found herself laughing and joking with Khalid, and she couldn't help but notice how kind and attentive he was. Naina's happy seeing her brother finally meet up with the love of his life. Since the day he saw Boddo at the school he has been always talking and asking about her, and from the way he was staring at her from the mirror trying hard to pleases her it must be love at first sight. She heavily sighed, listening to them.

As Kamal finally arrived at the school, he was surprised to see that Boddo was nowhere to be found. He asked around, and one of Boddo's classmates told him that she had left with someone else.

Kamal's heart sank as he realized that Boddo had gone home with someone else. He couldn't believe it. Why had she left without him? And who was this other person she had gone with?

Kamal's mind raced as he drove home, his anger and frustration growing with every passing moment. When he finally pulled up outside the house, he saw her standing on the doorstep, talking to someone. It was a guy he didn't recognize.

Kamal didn't even bother to park the car properly. He jumped out and stormed towards them, his eyes fixed on the stranger.

"What the hell is going on here?" Kamal demanded, his voice shaking filled with rage.

Boddo and the guy turned to face him, looking startled. Boddo's eyes widened in shock as she saw Kamal's furious expression.

"Mr. Grumpy, calm down," Boddo said, trying to soothe him. "This is Naina's brother, Khalid. They gave me a ride home." She said motioning the car in other for him to see Naina but, Kamal is so out of control that he didn't look at the direction.

Kamal's fists clenched at his sides. "And you didn't think to wait for me?" he spat, his voice dripping with venom.

Boddo looked at him, hurt and confused. "I'm sorry, Grumpy," she said softly. "I didn't know you were coming. And besides, They offered me a ride, and I didn't want to keep them waiting."

Kamal's anger boiled over. "I can't believe this," he said, turning to storm away. "You're now so big to start following men around anyhow. How can you do this when you know what's on your hea..." " Excuse me Mr. Whatsoever, how can you say such hurtful words to her without listening, who are you to her anywa..."  The slapped turn him off very quickly.

Boddo is stunned by how he slapped him without any hesitation she quickly turned and went inside. Naina  quickly rushed out of the car even though she's not hearing what they were busy saying she notices how furious Kamal looks but, never did she had the thought of him slapping him.  " How dare you hit me? Do you know me or who I'm?." Khalid said filled with rage.

The gate man quickly rushed out to cool the both guys even though Khalid is much younger than Kamal very young as he won't pass 25yrs old. The chaos took a lot of time to cool down, people gather even though the area was quite one some neighbors have to help in calming Kamal.

Kamal stormed into the house, slamming the gate behind him. Haj. Aisha, who had been standing on the balcony, was startled by the noise and rushed down to see what was wrong.

"Kamal, what happened?" she asked, looking concerned.

Kamal glared at her, his anger still boiling over. "Boddo!" he spat. "She left with someone else. She didn't even wait for me."

His mother's face fell, and she felt a knot form in her stomach. She had been worried about this for some time now. Kamal had been acting strangely around Boddo lately, and she had suspected that he might have developed feelings for her. "Kamal, please calm down," Haj. Aisha said, trying to soothe him. "What happened exactly? Did you and Boddo have plans?"

Kamal sighed heavily, trying to control his temper. He explained to his mother how he had planned to pick Boddo up from school, and how she had left with someone else without waiting for him. She listened patiently, her heart sinking as she realized the truth of the situation. Kamal was in love with Boddo, and things were going to get complicated if he didn't get a handle on his emotions.

As Kamal's mother watched him storm off to his room, she knew that she had to take action. She worried about her husband Alh. Gidado if he get a glimpse it. And can't get through to Datti for the past 2yrs now he has not been contacting them if their father visits him he kept on giving excuses. " I need to have one on one talk with Kamal before I decide on anything let him calm down first.

Boddo went straight to her room, feeling a mix of emotions. She was angry with herself for unknowingly for hurting Kamal, but at the same time, she couldn't help feeling sorry for him. As she sat on her bed, Boddo took out her phone and typed out a message to Kamal.

"Hey Mr. Grumpy, I just wanted to say I'm sorry for what happened earlier. I didn't mean to hurt you. You've always been there for me, and I appreciate everything you've done. Please forgive me brother."

Boddo hesitated for a moment, wondering if she should send the message. But then she realized that she needed to make things right with Kamal. She then pressed send and waited for a response.

Kamal sat on his bed, his mind racing with a jumble of thoughts and emotions. He was furious with Boddo for leaving with someone else, but at the same time, he couldn't help feeling hurt and confused by his own feelings for her.

As he sat there, he couldn't help but think about his brother Datti and the secret he had been keeping for the past two years. Kamal knew that his brother had abandoned Boddo his wife and was now living with Minal all these years. It was a secret that he had been keeping from everyone, including his mother. Kamal knew that he needed to tell his mother the truth about Datti, but he also knew that it was going to be a difficult conversation and her health is not so good. He didn't want to hurt his mother, but he knew that she deserved to know the truth.

As he pondered these thoughts, Kamal's phone buzzed with a text message. It was from Boddo. After reading it he hesitated for a moment, unsure of how to respond. But then he realized that he needed to confront his feelings and talk to Boddo about what had happened.

"Okay," he replied.

Boddo let out a sigh of relief, glad that Kamal had forgiven her. She knew that they had a long way to go to rebuild their friendship, but she was willing to put in the effort.

As she lay in bed, Boddo's thoughts turned to Kamal's brother Datti and the secret he had been keeping for the past two years. She knew that Kamal was struggling with the truth and wondered if she should talk to him about it, as she heard his conversation with Minal about them living happily with Datti even though Kamal tried his best to explain things to Minal and Datti they still went ahead with their plans. Since that day she has also been struggling to let him know she knows why he's always helping her not to feel abandoned by his brother always he and the family are really doing their best for her.

But for now, Boddo decided to focus on rebuilding herself and her  friendship with Kamal and helping him through all his difficulty knowing the story of his past and how he has suffered back then. She closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep, knowing that tomorrow was a new day with new possibilities.

Strange Love Indeed.... These 2 seems to be inlove unknowingly especially Boddo as she grows more closer to Kamal who she has been with almost all the time... Datti what's the truth behind you? I pouted out my lips thinking about this... Who else did again...?
