C5 Six

Waleed's mum strolled to the gazebo where she was told that someone awaited her. On getting to the gazebo she was met with Waleed's third maid, Nasma. Labeelah ran away from Waleed's house on her third day of work. She couldn't bare Waleed's arrogance and rudeness, it was just too much for her.

And we also have Nadya who ran away on her first day of work because Waleed threw coffee on her. Nadya was a type that couldn't bare arrogance and disgrace, thus she ran away.

"Nasma what are you doing here?" Waleed's mum asked though she knew very well what the response will be.

"Madam I'm sorry but i can't work with your son" she was right, it was the same response.

"Why? What happened?" Waleed's mum asked curiously.

"Well Madam i am not going to lie to you. Your son is very rude and he insults me allot. Madam believe me when i say that I have never been insulted like this in my whole life" Nasma began to cry.

"I am sorry Nasma. What did he even say to you?" Waleed's mum asked.

"Well Madam he asked to bring a Haliy trust magazine to him and i brought the wrong one. And he Began insulting me from head to toe and he even tore the magazine i gave to him and threw it on me" She said while crying uncontrollably as she remembered how Waleed insulted her physical figure.

"I am so sorry dear. I promise I'll compensate you for this" Waleed's mum said and Nasma nodded in tears while muttering a thank you.

"You may go my dear and please do take heart, i don't know what is wrong with him" Waleed's mum said sincerely as she patted Nasma's back.

"Madam and you also know what, he doesn't eat nor takes care of himself, Madam not to sound rude but i think something is wrong with him" Nasma said sincerely and Waleed's mum nodded.

"Thank you Nasma, i know just what to do" Waleed's mum said and Nasma nodded with a thank you before leaving.

Waleed's mum sat on the swivel chair in the gazebo swiveling back and forth. She needs to help her son and she knew just who to call. Waleed needs a person that'll feed him larva if he feeds them fire, she thought while picking up her phone.

"Dear Come to the gazebo please" she said the minute the person picked the call.

In not less than five minute, Anisah was before the gazebo with a smile on her face.

"Mamah" Anisah said with so much enthusiasm on seeing Waleed's worried looking mother.

"Come in Anisah" Waleed's mum said and she immediately did as told and stood before her.

"Take a sit Anisah" Anisah did as told by Waleed' mum.

"Mamah how may i be of help to you? " Anisah asked with a very beautiful smile on her face.

"Anisah i need your help please, you have to help me" Waleed's mum said in worried pitched tone.

"How may i help you Mamah?" Anisah said.

"It's Waleed, i don't know what is wrong with him" Waleed's mum said with little tears cascading down her cheeks, and that pained Anisah allot.

"What is wrong with him?" Anisah asked curiously.

"He has changed, he doesn't take care of himself again. He has become more rude than usual. Anisah i need your help sincerely" Waleed's mum said.

"How Mamah?" She asked once again.

"Please can you work for Waleed as his maid. I promise to pay you heftily" Waleed's mum said and Anisah's mouth instantly went agape, how was she supposed to work for a person who dislikes her allot, She thought.

"Mamah i don't know, he doesn't like me" Anisah said while biting her lips.

"Please Anisah, you know his dislikes and likes and most importantly you know him very well so i think you will make the perfect help for him" Waleed's mum said and Anisah bit her lips once again. She didn't know what to do, she needed the money.

"Please Anisah, do this for me" Waleed's mum said with tears in her eyes. She was indeed disturbed by Waleed's careless way of life.

"Mamah please don't cry, I'll work for Waleed" with that said, a beautiful smile graced the lips on Waleed's mum as she immediately engulfed Anisah in her heart felt hug.

"Thank you so much Anisah, may Allah reward you Abundantly" Waleed's mum pecked Anisah's fore head.

"Thank you Mamah, when shall i begin?" She asked.

"Today if possible, his maid resigned today and i am very sure he must be hungry by now. He is fasting" Waleed's mum said and Anisah nodded.

"Okay Mamah, I'll have to go home and inform my mum" she said while standing on her feet.

"Alright my dear, Thank you so much. May Allah reward you for this" Waleed's mum said and Anisah mouthed a thank you before leaving.

It was around 9:50 and He stood in the kitchen with a frown on his face as he stared at the burnt pasta he made. It was a disaster.

"Ewww" he said the minute he tasted the food. The food tasted too salty and looked disgusting. Yes he was a terrible cook.

"Ogah!" Jaja said the minute he knocked on the back door where he was sure Waleed was, because of the light illuminating from the window.

"Who is it?" Waleed said angrily.

"Na me ooo" Jaja said and Waleed strolled to the door and opened it.

"What?!" Waleed snapped the minute he saw Jaja.

"Ogah person dey for gate, she talk say she be your new house girl" Jaja said in pidgin which Waleed disliked allot.

"Oh My God with is wrong with Mamah. I told her i don't need a maid again" Waleed said to himself.

"Tell her to go away!" He said and immediately turned on his heels.

"Ogah the girl stubborn ooo. She talk say na your mama send her, say she no go oo" Jaja said and Waleed immediately turned and faced him.

"Leave her there, she'll leave on her own" he said and turned on his heels again to walk away but a feminine voice halted him.

"I'm not going away" Anisah said the moment she stood before the back yard door with her hands at akimbo.
