My Priceless Jewel Part 1 Complete Hausa Novel · about 7 min read
It was 9:00pm, the night cold and dark, the only sound one could hear was that of the night frog. But that didn't stop arfaat from sitting outside, in the cold night, crying like a baby. He had lost juwairiyyah, and yes! What his mom said about their relationship moments ago was true.
"You've all wasted the one chance you had of being together, playing a game of revenge and deceit. You all still think you can get back together and be happy dan mama?. I wonder what you were thinking when you joined her in playing the game, you guys got married, but because of your so called game, you got divorced. I don't blame her for choosing her cousin over you, if i were in her shoes, I'll do thesame. Believe me".
Those were his mom words, he had played with the chance he got, he ruined it, he had lost her forever now. But deep inside, he still has the feeling; that one day, they'll all be back together and have their own kids. The vibration of his phone got him back into reality. He wanted ignoring it, but a voice told him not to, he picked up the phone and saw a new number calling; he wasted sometime before picking it up.
"Salamu alaikoom"
"Wa alaikumus salaam, is that arfaat please?" A deep male voice answered
"Yea"
"Junayd on line".
Arfaat closed his eyes for a while, as the name stroked his heart with a sharp pain "can i help you?" He asked, in an unfriendly manner
"Hey! Chill. Why the rude tone, we just need to talk, i never forced her to choose me over you". Junayd said, a little bit pissed off and irritated.
"Talk about what? You think i have the time to waste in talking to you?"
"You know what?, lets meet up tomorrow around 7 in the evening, can you make it. I can come over if you want me to". Said junayd
"I don't want to see your face, it irritates me" replied arfaat.
"Too bad, i thought we two could have a man to man talk".
"No, we can't. Say what you have to say right now; or i hang up the call".
"Arfaat" junayd called slowly "i never had the intention of coming between you two, but I've loved juwairiyyah for ages, I've always dream of her being my wife, mother to my kids, my soulmate, my life partner. But i feel bad about all this, even thou she choosed me as her husband, i felt like I've come in between two lovers. Do forgive me please, but i can't give up on her".
"Its okay, goodbye" arfaat said, as he ended the call. Juanyd froze on the chair he was sitting. He was silent for a while, and then shrugged later on, vowing to mind his business and see to it that juwairiyyah is his!.
Juwairiyyah woke up the next day feeling sober, with a lot on her mind, her eyes swollen into big balls like oranges, she looked like a new mad woman, who just came out of the psychiatric hospital. She was wearing a skirt and blouse, made of a fabric called "shadda" baby pink in color. She walked down straight to the kitchen, where uwani was busy preparing the morning breakfast.
"Good morning" she greated, as she took a plate from the plate rack, going straight to the food warmer uwani kept the yam and egg she was frying.
"Good morning hajiya" uwani said, bending down a little as a sign of respect to her boss lady.
"Uwani, i know i have always been rude to you, you are older than me, so you deserve respect from me, even if you are working under me. Please, forgive me"
"O hajiya!" Uwani said hugging her "I've always loved you, and no matter what happen, I'll always, i mean I'll always be with you".
"Ma shaa Allah, this was what I've been waiting for, for ages. Thank you for realizing that soon angel". Hajiya raliya said, standing at the doorway.
"Good morning mom" juwairiyyah said, giving her a warm embrace.
"Morning our bride-to be, had a great night i guess"
"Yes mom" she answered slowly.
"You look pale, look at your eyes,are you okay?" Asked her mom, concerned
"Yes mom, don't worry. Am perfectly alright".
Hajiya raliya already knew that she was lying, but she won't force her to do what she don't want to. They chat for some minutes before they all went to thier different directions.
For arfaat, everything has turned upside down, mai kunu has tried her possible best to show him that loosing juwairiyyah was not the end of time, arfaat wouldn't listen. He still hope that She'll call him any moment and tell him that, he is the one she choose not junayd. Unknown to him, juwairiyyah has already made up her mind, she don't have the slightest feeling for junayd, but she still choosed him over arfaat. She loved arfaat, but she value self respect the more. To her, she has already lost her self respect in the eyes of arfaat. Its better to end things in an early stage.
The only thing juwai focused on was her wedding arrangements, what bothered her the most is that, junayd didn't ask for her, call her or even talked to her about their wedding plans, she's only doing what she thinks is the right thing for them both. But she made up her mind to talk to him today, its already two days to their wedding, she'll have to know what he's thinking.
At around 5 in the evening, juwai stepped at junayd's doorway, she knocked for three times without any response, she then made up her mind to go into the room, without waiting for permission.

But what she saw after closing the door behind her shocked the hell out of her, deep inside, she was still grateful for choosing junayd as her husband to be.
"Yaa junayd" she called slowly, after overcoming the shock of what she saw "yaa junayd are you okay? What's wrong with you?" She asked, as she walked over to where he was lying down. But as soon as she approached him, a heavy and polluted smell gave her a warm welcome. She quickly stood up, her eyes wide open in shock. What could this be? Is junayd a drunkard? Yaa Allah! No! This can't be.
"Yaa junayd, what is this smell? Don't tell me its what am thinking?" She asked, standing over him. Junayd turned slowly and looked at her, he's feverish, and at the same time feeling dizzy.
"Angel..." He called, his voice almost inaudible "Am sorry, you made me do it, i just had to..." His speech ended as he begin to throw up without a stop. The room was filled with the heavy smell of the alcohol he took yesterday night. Tears rolled down juwairiyyah's cheeks, she has no other choice but to help him. She went over, helped him up and took him to the bathroom, she then came back and clear the mess before finally leaving the room. Deep inside, she was thinking if she made the wrong choice by choosing him as her husband to be.
Junayd came out of the bathroom after about 20minutes, a towel around his waist, he looked pale, his skin damp with perspiration. He sat down at the edge of the bed, his head in his hands as he went into deep thought, remembering how and why he became alcoholic.
It started the very day he confessed his love to juwairiyyah, right from her expression, junayd knew quite well that she has no feelings for him. But to him, it seems like as days goes by, instead of him to forget about her and move on. But No!, she became more beautiful in his eyes and that's because he only looked at her with a lustful look in his eyes. From that day onwards, he made a vow to himself, with or without a conjugal bliss, juwairiyyah will be his!.
From that day onwards, he took pleasures from alcohol, and in his crazy state, imagine him and juwairiyyah as perfect couples.
Juwairiyyah was still shocked, if what she saw was not her imagination, then she has made a big mistake by choosing junayd. Atleast, her dad will consider her points of view. And no matter what happened to junayd after their breakup, no one will blame her, for she choosed him at first and left him for his attitude and behavior. She took her phone by the bedside and dialed arfaat's num, but to her surprise, arfaat didn't pick up, she called again for almost 5 times without any response. What could have happened? She mused to herself.
"You've all wasted the one chance you had of being together, playing a game of revenge and deceit. You all still think you can get back together and be happy dan mama?. I wonder what you were thinking when you joined her in playing the game, you guys got married, but because of your so called game, you got divorced. I don't blame her for choosing her cousin over you, if i were in her shoes, I'll do thesame. Believe me".
