Lauje Cikin Naɗi Part 2 Complete Hausa Novel

Secret Intrusions and Hidden Treasures
With caution, she pushed open the bedroom door, and seeing it already ajar, she breathed a heavy sigh of relief.
Seda peeked inside to ensure no one was around and stepped directly into the room. She carefully scanned the space, closing her eyes to inhale the fragrance of the perfume—so familiar even in sleep, she could identify the owner. Slowly, she approached the row of watches lined up neatly.
After examining them, she carefully selected the most expensive one, hid it under her clothing, and, startled by a sudden movement, quickly exited the room without touching anything else.
As she left, she noticed him entering the house. Clutching the watches tightly, she hurried toward her part of the house, all the while feeling the weight of his presence just ahead. Her mind raced: “By Allah, I shouldn’t have done this… I’ve gone too far. Mumtaz, what have you done?”
Meanwhile, Mumtaz had locked herself in the bedroom, unaware that anyone could know what she had done. She forcefully turned the key in the door and peeked out the window, spying Faruƙ moving about with his phone. Faruƙ, distracted by an urgent call, failed to notice who was watching him.
Seeing him enter, Seda exhaled in relief, sat down, and carefully retrieved the stolen watch. She admired it for a moment, muttering to herself about its value, then tucked it safely into her bag before returning to the parlor where her mother sat.
Evening Rituals and Self-Reflection
Seda sat beside her mother, focusing intently on her tasks. Her mother, busy in the kitchen preparing drinks, barely noticed her presence. As evening approached and the call to Maghrib prayer neared, Mumtaz softly asked, “Mama, don’t I have any work to do today?”
Receiving no reply, she quietly returned to her room to rest, feeling the day’s fast weigh on her. She reflected on her reckless behavior earlier, thinking of the potential consequences if Faruƙ had caught her. She replaced tears with a faint smile and whispered a prayer:
"Everything has its time. Allah, relieve me of this unnecessary burden I’ve carried without reason."
She performed her ablutions and led the Maghrib prayer for the household before sitting down calmly, finishing her meal quietly. True to her nature, she didn’t care much for the food, preferring to focus on her inner thoughts rather than engage with the others.
Observations and Lessons in Integrity
Later, the family gathered in the main courtyard for Asr prayer. Everyone was present except Mumtaz, noticed only by Sakina. As she hurried in, her eyes stayed fixated on a small mat she had taken earlier, causing her anxiety. During the prayers, she discreetly moved the mat back into her clothing without anyone noticing.
Her grandmother, Umma Babba, puzzled by the missing mat, asked aloud, “Where did my mat go? This is strange.” Mumtaz, quietly focused on her actions, remained unnoticed, though Umma Babba continued to wonder in her heart.
After the prayers, the family dispersed. Faruƙ remained seated, Mumtaz watching closely as he continued on his phone. She moved carefully, her mind alert to his movements, managing to avoid detection entirely.
Later, her mother gently questioned her about her recent behavior, highlighting Mumtaz’s visible lack of calmness and focus. Mumtaz listened quietly, observing the examples given by her mother of how other young women in the household conducted themselves. Understanding the lesson, she smiled softly, thinking about how her actions had consequences, and how one’s composure and honesty shape respect from others.
