Ko so kuke in kwaso kaya?”Ta faɗa, trying to change the heavy atmosphere of the room, but she failed.Ummu ce ta kalleta tace,“Atti, bana hana ki yin dare ba.”Shiru Atti tayi, lowering her gaze.Kallonta ta Ummu rake, trying to read her mood, tace,“Me kika tsaya yi da baki dawo da wuri ba?"

Atti ce ta fara magana with a heavy voice.“Ammy, we have a lot to go. Akwai kuɗin school fees ɗin su Ammar da Zahra, ga fees ɗina nima. Ga su Zahra zasuyi graduation na primary, shima ina son in biya mata. Ina ganin kamar ban dage bane. I need to work hard, Ummu.”With parental love, Ummu tayi hugging ɗinta tightly for a lot of minutes kafin su yi breaking hug ɗin.Riƙo hannunta tayi, sannan ta realize Atti na ƙoƙarin ɓoye wani abu.Kallon hannun tayi.Hawaye ne ya fara zubowa.Her hands were so cold.

Atti sai haƙuri take bata kafin tayi shiru.

Ɗagowa tayi tana kallon cikin idon Atti.Wani abu ta gani a cikin idonta.Yarinyar da take shirin sadaukar da komai nata saboda su.Yarinyar da girma ya zo mata kafin shekaru.Yarinyar da take da buri, take da zuciya tsayayyiya, mai jarumta, juriya da ƙin nuna gazawa.

Ummu ce tayi breaking silence ɗin tana cewa,“Maleeka... hannuwanki sun girmi shekarunki.”Kin iya bakin ƙoƙarinki. You are doing more than enough, dear. Ki dinga sassautawa kanki. We need you, dear. Ki daina pushing kanki so hard. Everything will be okay. Allah yana tare da mu, kuma ba zai bari mu tagayyara ba, kinji?”Kwanciya Atti tayi akan cinyar Ummu tana shafa kanta har bacci ya ɗauke ta.Tofa mata addu'a tayi, ta tashi tayi tana kulle mata ɗakin.

Washe gari, haka suka gama shiryawa ga ba ɗaya dake Atti na da school yau, amma sai ta tsaya ta kai su Ammar, tayi settling ɗin kuɗin makarantar su.
