YAR AIKIN KARUWAI Book 2

About this Novel

As they halted by the roadside in Maiduguri, the vibrant gala camp whizzed past them. The treacherous villages they passed loomed in the distance, casting a shadow over their journey. Rufaida, pushing her way out of the car, exclaimed about the unbearable heat, suggesting they seek shelter under a tree or a scorpion-infested bag until the scorching sun relented. The passengers, parched and weary, tossed out their water bottles and resumed their limping trek. Grandpa, seated next to Rana, requested water to quench their thirst. A young man, with an empty gaze fixated on Rufaida, implored her for water, invoking God. Disregarding the plea, Rufaida paid no mind to the young man's words, prompting his dejected murmur about shamelessly urinating that day. Disheartened, the group resumed their journey. With the car back in motion, Rufaida, overcome with relief, shed tears of joy. Extending her hand towards Grandpa, she beamed. Meanwhile, Chin Chin, Tayo, and Guzuri's meat pie were distributed, bringing a moment of solace amidst the turmoil. Rufaida, offering a sweet treat to the onlookers, shared the palm oil and fresh dates, ensuring everyone had their share.
