Lallai kuwa tayi hak'uri ta rufa musu asiri.

   "Mami!" Amal ta k'walla wa mahaifiyar nata kira, shiru kukeji ba amsa. "Mami don Allah ki fito daga b'uyan nan ni bance miki bala'i na kawo ba wannan mutumin gefe nan ne yazo baki hak'uri ya kad'e miki 'ya" ta sanar a fili. Se anan Mami tad'an ji sukuni but even still ta kasa fitowa gani take kamar k'arya Amal keyi saboda sau dayawa takan yi mata hakan, ta d'ibo bala'i daga waje  sannan ta fake tazo tace alkhairi ta kawo.

Ashe bashi kad'ai ne bayi kama da Umminsa ba (mahaifiyar shi.)

  "Sannu da zuwa bawan Allah" Mami ta fad'a tana nufo su cike da tsoro da fargaba.

   "Yauwa Mami" Afzal ya amsa. "Ina yini?" Ya gaisheta cike da ladabi had'e da durk'usawa kad'an. Ai gaisuwan da Mami bata amsa ba kenan ta shiga basa hak'uri.

  "Don Allah idan wani abun Baby tayi ma kayi hak'uri bawan Allah wallahi banida abun da zan iya baka banda hak'uri" tace ba alaman kwanciyan hankali a tattare da ita. Ido Amal ta juya cike da takaicin abinda Mami keyi gaban wannan maras mutuncin bawan Allah'n, taya zata tsaya tana basa hak'uri while shi ya kamata yayi hakan?

   Afzal ya bud'e baki zeyi magana kenan Amal ta riga sa "Wai ni Mami yaushe nace miki nayi mar laifi? Dubi fa, dubi k'afa nafa" tayi maganan tana miqar da k'afanta a hankula so Mami could see "Karya min k'afa yayi."

    "Innalillahi wa'inna ilaihi raji'un Baby!" Mami tayi exclaiming tare da yin kan 'yar nata tana me zaunar da ita a hankali bisa wani benchin dake kusa tana mata sannu in the process.

   "Look Mami ni ban karya wa 'yarki k'afa ba don't listen to her" Cewar Afzal.

   "Wallahi ya karya" Amal tayi saurin fad'i tana katse Mami "Idan ba karya min k'afa yayi ba toh seya fad'i dalilin daya sa ban iya taka k'afan."

   "Yi shiru Baby na sannu ai ko baki fad'a ba gashi kumburin k'afarki ta nuna kin karye saidai kariya nawa ne?"

   "Kaman biyu ne inji likitan" ta fad'a bayan tasan sarai k'arya take. Se wani zum6uro baki take cike da shagwa6a a yayinda Mami ke ta mata sannu tana shafa k'afan a hankali.
   Shi de Afzal ya rasa nayi, ya rasa menene yayi yau Allah ya had'a sa da dramatic people kallan wad'annan, ace ba babba ba yaro? Hmm shide gado ba gwaninta ba.

Har kuma in kaita asibiti, think please" Daga yadda yake magana za a san ransa ya soma 6aci kuma bako k'arya acikin duk abinda ya fad'a.

  "Hak'uri? Ni de baka ban hak'uri ba" cewar Amal tana murgud'a baki. "Allah ya karya min k'afa kar ki jisa Mami."

   "Bawan Allah don Allah kayi hak'uri wallahi haka take gagara da rashin ji toh wane akanta akayi wahayinsa."

   "Ba sekin fad'a ba naga hakan a tattare da ita" ya fad'a yana meyi wa Amal kallon rainin hankalin dayasa ta murgud'a mai baki. "So am here to say sorry and take full responsibility" ya numfasa "Ga magunanta nan" anan ya miqa wa Mami leathern inda ta amsa "Dr yace karku tada hankalinku she's going to be alright kuma gobe idan Allah ya kaimu zan dawo in maida ta asibitin don a sake dressing ankle natan kaman yadda likitan ya buk'ata. Za a cigaba da yin hakan na sati daga nan in shaa Allah k'afan zai warware." Kafin Mami da akayi ma bayani tayi magana Amal ta hau k'orafi.

   "Ni wallahi ban komawa asibitin" ta fad'a tana buga d'ayan k'afanta a k'asa stubbornly.

  "Rufa min baki do Allah!" Mami ta ce da ita amman still se gunguni takeyi dake sam bata tsoron idon Mami. "Allah sarki bawan Allah lallai ka cika d'an halas mun kuma gode sosai, ina me sake baka hak'uri kuma."

   "Ba komai Mami ya wuce nine da godiya."
