"Sarah, maintain your dignity as a young woman. Remember, we're not sending you to school so you can do whatever you want. We're sending you to deepen your studies before your brother returns. Keep in mind that you are now a married woman, the wife of someone. Do not associate with irresponsible people or follow any professor or lecturer. Preserve your dignity as a young woman and as a married woman. Do you understand?"

"I understand, father. But father, what kind of husband is this whom I have never seen, and he has never seen me either?"

He smiled. Just always_remember that your_husband is like your_brother. Everything takes time, and one day you will see who your husband is. Just maintain your dignity."

"God willing, father. May God bless you."

"Amen, father. Thank you. Tomorrow you will leave early for Kaduna, so go to bed early to wake up on time."

"Okay, father."

She went upstairs to another room. A woman was sitting there with a newspaper in her hand.

"Mama, good afternoon."

"Good afternoon, my daughter. Have you finished talking with your father?"

"Yes, mama."

"Sarah, follow your father's advice. Although I know the house you're going to won't be comfortable, be strong. It's a test from God."

"But mother, why did you say it will not be comfortable?"

"My daughter, today I will tell you about our relatives history. You will learn everything today, and I will tell you who Hajiya Luba is. 

Many years ago, it was a tradition in our family to arrange marriages within the family. This practice has_been going on in our family since our ancestors' time. Lubabu, and I, Zainab, share the same father but different mothers. My mother was arranged to marry my father within the family. They were married for many years without given birth to any children. They went to the hospital and were told that she could never have children. This news devastated her, and my father had to take another wife, who was not from the family. However, my stepmother Harira never got along with my mother. She hated her without any valid reason.

This caused a lot of distress for my father, but my mother always showed resilience. My mother was her parents' only child, and my father was from their extended family. Life continued until one day, God blessed Harira with a pregnancy. We were all very happy. She was well taken care of throughout the pregnancy and gave birth to a baby girl named Lubabatu. On the day of Lubabatu's naming ceremony, my mother received many taunts, which caused her severe fever. My father took her to the hospital, and they discovered she was also pregnant. It wasn't a surprise because God works in mysterious ways.

On the day of my birth, my mother gave birth to me, Zainab. There was a grand celebration, and my father was overjoyed. He took great care of us with gratitude to God. As we grew up, we were enrolled in school. However, Lubabatu inherited her mother's jealousy and resentment. Despite the animosity, we continued with our lives.

When it was time for marriage, the family decided to arrange my marriage with your father, Aminu, while Lubabatu was to marry Yakubu. Lubabatu, however, insisted she wanted to marry Aminu, but the family stood firm in their decision. From that day, the animosity between us grew stronger.

For five years after my marriage, I couldn't conceive, while Lubabatu gave birth to a son. On the day of his naming ceremony, I was taunted again, but I was unfazed. Life continued. Seven years passed without any signs of pregnancy, and we sought medical help. I was diagnosed as two months pregnant, which surprised me as I didn't feel anything. We returned home with joy, while Lubabatu had two children but could no longer conceive due to some reasons. When Ashrin, Luba's son, grew older, his father sent him abroad for studies because our family was blessed with wealth.

On the day of your birth, I was taken to the hospital and gave birth to you. You were named after my mother, Aisha, and we called you Sarah. You grew up under our care, attended school, and completed your education. It was then decided that you would marry Ashrin. I had to accept it. I don't know what Ashrin is like now, but I urge you to take care of your husband and obey your parents' instructions."

With a sigh and saying "Insha Allah," she went to her room quietly. She entered the room, performed her ablution, prayed, and prayed for her new life. She lay on the bed, thinking about what kind of husband she had been married to. Will he love her? Will they be compatible? Only God knows.
