About this Novel

"I didn't say you're bad, not at all. It's just a matter of making the right choice. That's all. I care about you and can distinguish between lies and truth." The two girls exchanged glances for a moment. Then the older woman, Asma'u, looked at her younger friend, Rabi'atu, and said, "What do you mean, Asma'u? What about me? I don't quite understand this criticism of yours. I don't know what Imran did to make you dislike him." "No one else, Rabi'atu, this year, it's his love. All I want is for you to understand that I love you. He's not as good for you as what I have in mind. You've been my dear friend since childhood, and I only wish to advise you to follow what I believe is right for you. It's for your own benefit. I forbid you from doing anything that I believe might harm you." Asma'u fell silent, catching her breath, and then looked at Rabi'atu, who said, "Now you're waiting for Imran to finish school so he can marry you? He's just a student, still as young as these boys. Are you going to be patient, waiting for him even after he completes his studies? What do you mean?" Asma'u gazed at Rabi'atu and then shook her head with concern.
