INTRODUCTION

Umaru Musa Yar'Adua University is an institution that accommodates people from various parts of Nigeria, ranging from the East, West, South, and North. Among the students in this university are two beautiful young ladies named AYUSHA and ANEESERH.

AYUSHA is a first-class beauty with an attractive, captivating shape. She is neither very fair nor can she be called dark; she has long hair cascading down her back. However, her only drawback is that God has not blessed her with the abundant wealth of the Fulani. She is originally from Katsina town.

ANEESERH is also a first-class beauty, with only minor differences from Ayusha. She is very fair-complexioned and possesses abundant Fulani wealth, though her hair is so voluminous that it is hard to find parking space for it. Originally from a town called Dangyatin in Jigawa State, education brought her to Katsina until God brought her and Ayusha together to start a friendship. She lives on campus, unlike her friend who stays in town.

THE CORE OF THE STORY

Walking sedately as if reluctant to step on the ground, Aneesa looked at her bosom friend and said, "Girls, we need to pick up the pace because this walk of ours isn't getting us anywhere, and you know Mr. Ojokolo has no manners. He gets there before us, and we only get to listen from the back. Last week too, we missed attending his lecture."

"Hmmm! My friend, wallahi you won't understand. Ever since day broke today, I’ve been feeling my body very weak. I could barely wake up, get dressed, and manage to come to school."

"Subhanallah, what is wrong with you like this?"

"Wallahi I don't know either, but I know that today I am abnormal. It will be hard if some terrible misfortune isn't about to happen to me," she burst into tears.

Aneeserh quickly covered Ayusha's mouth, saying, "Please sister, stop saying that. Falyak'ul khairan auliyasmut [Speak good or remain silent]. In sha Allahu nothing bad will happen to you except good." She too burst into tears. They found a spot and sat down, continuing to cry until they had their fill. They spent at least thirty minutes sitting without either saying a word to the other. Afterward, Ayusha mustered her strength and said, "Sister, let's get up and go to the hostel since we've missed the period. If so, in the evening we can go home and spend the weekend there, especially since Mummy has been complaining that you haven't visited for a few days."

As Aneeserh was about to speak, Ayusha quickly covered her mouth again. "I don't want to hear any unnecessary excuses of yours. You must spend the weekend at home."

She smiled and said, "Al-masifatu, your wish is my command." They both laughed and headed toward the hostel.

Right at that moment, my pen stops for today. Follow me forward to follow the story of these young women, hoping that this introduction delights you.

CHAPTERS 6-10

As they entered the hostel, Ayusha said, "Wallahi sister, I am hungry today. I even came out without breakfast."

Aneeserh laughed and said, "As if you ever eat food anyway! Even now, it's just because hunger has overwhelmed you, but breakfast is never part of your routine."

"You are the one who knows best. Now get up and cook indomie for me as usual."

Aneeserh shot her a fierce glare. "Indeed, you won't eat indomie if I am the one cooking it."

"Haba my chef, you know I can't eat indomie cooked by just anyone unless it's yours. Your cooking is different among women; you are the best among equals."

She quickly stood up, laughing and saying, "Ayusha, you are beyond human. If you make someone eat something—even if the person didn't intend to—they will end up doing it."

She smiled and said, "My friend, if you don't take care of me, someone else will take care of me here."

"You must say so, hypocrite! As soon as I finish cooking for you, you'll start your mischief."

Thus, with play and laughter, they cooked the indomie. After eating and resting, they performed the Zuhr prayer and then headed to the library to study.

Around 3:45 PM, they left for the mosque to perform the Asr prayer. After completing it, they returned to the hostel. Aneeserh gathered everything she knew she would need, and then they headed to the student parking lodge, took a car, and set off for home.

At 5:45 PM, they arrived. Even before reaching the gate, Ayusha started blowing the horn continuously. Mallam Ayuba the gatchet-man quickly came to open the gate because he knew the habits of his master's daughter; if she lingered and he didn't open up, she would unleash the fury of her school exhaustion on him. He himself knew that Ayusha was kind, generous to a fault, and never looked down on the poor or treated them with disdain, but she had zero patience—unlike her friend Aneeserh, who didn't shout or make noise and was totally cool.

Seeing them together, he began beaming with smiles. "Hajjaju Makkatu, are you the one in our house today? Truly you brought us much summer! Just a while ago, I was about to say that Hajja Shatu (that is what he called Ayusha) should ask when you would come visit us."

"Alas, Baba, I too missed you guys recently. I've been very busy, which is why I couldn't manage to check on you."

"Ayyah, welcome back."

"Thank you, Baba."

Ayusha looked at them and said, "Baba and Aneesha, when you two meet, you never know when to stop chatting. Now let's be patient, Maghrib is approaching, and you can continue your greetings later." They all laughed and went inside.

Right from the ground floor, they were met by a magnificent aroma of cooking, which confirmed to them that Mummy was in the kitchen. Ayusha hurried upstairs, running and shouting, "I'm home, Mummy! I missed you so much today." She threw herself into Mummy's arms. Mummy hugged her back quickly, saying, "I missed you more, darling. How is school? I hope you aren't burdened with any trouble or worries."

"Yeah! Mummy, I have no worries at all."

"Alhamdulillah, that is what I want to hear, my daughter."

Quickly, Ayusha said, "Oh, I forgot! I came with a surprise for you downstairs. Give me two minutes, I'll be right back." She rushed off, leaving Mummy wondering what kind of surprise this could be.

Before she could finish wondering, she heard a voice say, "Mummy, close your eyes before I show you the surprise." Being used to Ayusha's antics, Mummy knew that if she didn't close her eyes, Ayusha wouldn't show her anything, so she had no choice but to close her eyes.

As soon as she closed them, she heard, "Mum, open your eyes and see the surprise." When she opened them, she saw them standing and laughing at her. She frowned and said, "If I had known this was the surprise, I wouldn't have closed my eyes."

They feigned pitiful expressions, lowering their faces, and spoke in unison: "Mummy, why?"

She glared at them in a cool way and targeted Aneeserh: "Only today did you bother to come to my place? Go back where you came from, I am angry with both of you."

They pouted their faces and said, "We are sorry, Mommah."

She smiled and said, "Your apology is accepted."

With a leap, they hugged her, shouting, "Thanks for accepting our apology, Mommah!" She smiled and said, "But next time..."

Quickly they chimed in, "Better!"

She said, "Now hurry up, go take a bath and rest because I know you're exhausted."

"OK Mum," was all they could say as they headed inside.

I too, Rakiya, at that moment followed them into the room. Seeing Ayusha enter the toilet and Aneeserh pick up a towel, I said let me give them space and continue fetching you the report of the letter.

As Ayusha came out of the bathroom, she said to Aneeserh, "Girl, time to get up and take a bath! When someone enters the bathroom, you'd think they were changing their skin color. Wallahi, if I finish dressing up and you haven't come out, I'm going downstairs without you since you aren't a stranger to this house anyway."

"Mtswww! You know I'm not a stranger, yet you go on nagging me. And while you say I take too long in the bath, how many hours do you spend before finishing your makeup, lazy girl!" As soon as she finished saying that, she bolted into the toilet because she knew her friend's nature—she would land a punch on her back since she hated being called lazy, even though she was one in reality.

Ayusha smiled and said, "Don't worry girl, I will eat the soup of rivalry—this is revenge!" She continued dressing. It took her only fifteen minutes to dress, and by that time Aneeserh still hadn't emerged. Ayusha smiled and went downstairs to Mummy. Two minutes after she left, Aneeserh stepped out smiling. "Oh, the trouble-maker has gone downstairs to start bugging Mummy."

Truthfully, the closeness between Ayusha and her parents always fascinated her. Often, she wished she were the one receiving such care and affection from her own parents so she could enjoy life. Suddenly, hot tears began rolling down her cheeks.

When Ayusha reached the ground floor, she met Mum and Dad sitting down, exchanging banter like old lovers deeply attached to each other. She rushed over and threw herself onto Daddy, saying, "Oyoyo my Daddy, I missed you a lot today."

He frowned slightly and said, "Well, I didn't miss you; in fact, I am angry with you."

She widened her eyes, put on a pitiful face, and said, "Now Daddy, you're angry with your favorite daughter? That's it?" She scrunched up her face as if about to cry. It amused him, so he said, "If the last-born does wrong, she must be punished. Therefore, get off my lap, and I'm giving you an assignment: find out the wrong you've committed from daybreak till now."

She paused for a moment, thinking about what wrong she could have done. As far as she knew, they hadn't crossed paths with Dad all day today. Could that be the offense? Yes! That must be it, and she knew just how to win Dad over right this instant.

She got down from his lap and knelt on the floor, saying, "Please Sweetheart, forgive me. I have figured out the wrong I committed, and I am certain the magnitude of the offense deserves punishment. Nevertheless, I am asking for leniency regarding the impending punishment. Dad, wallahi I didn't intentionally leave without greeting you. Knowing that you spent last night with a headache made it so that when I entered your room, I didn't wake you up to say goodbye. Then to compound it, I forgot my phone at home. I've only been in the house for 30 minutes now. Forgive me, Daddy's Favorite!"

He smiled, lifted her up, and seated her on his lap, saying, "That is why I am always proud of you, Auta. Whenever you upset me, you always try to soften me with sweet words that put me in a cheerful mood. I am happy to announce to you that your Daddy has backed down from his anger toward you."

She smiled and said, "That's why I am always proud of you, my Dad. May God preserve you for me until the end of my life."

At that exact moment, Aneeserh entered the parlor. Seeing her friend sitting on his lap, she burst into laughter and said, "Daddy, welcome! A grown-up on a lap without even feeling ashamed? Wallahi Daddy, put her down, she's going to make you old prematurely!"

He smiled and said, "Welcome, Aneeserh! By now I am used to Auta's pampering. I figure that when she stops climbing onto my lap, I'll just marry her off and leave her to her children. In fact, I think I might marry her off very soon."

Aneeserh let out a wicked laugh because she knew full well that right now, Ayusha hated nothing more than marriage. In Ayusha's view, she wouldn't even consider marriage until she finished her university degree, master's, and PhD. So, cleverly, she said, "Wallahi Daddy, marry her off so she can learn some sense!" As soon as she said that, she fled behind Mummy, knowing she had stirred up a match.

Immediately, tears began flowing down Ayusha's face. She got down from Daddy's lap, went before Mummy, and dropped to her knees. "Mummy, for the sake of the Prophet, don't let Daddy marry me off! Wallahi, I am still a child, I am just 18 years old. Wallahi marriage is not in my plans right now, not until I get my PhD!" She burst into tears.

They all burst out laughing. Mummy said, "Stop crying, Auta, no one is going to marry you off right now. Even your Daddy was just joking with you; he's not marrying you off until you find the suitor of your choice. But I want you to know that marriage has its appointed time—when a person's time comes, whether prepared or not, it happens. It is a very strong Sunnah, the Sunnah of our Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him). Therefore, I never want to hear you say you aren't ready for marriage now."

Her heart calmed down immensely. Subdued, she said, "Thank you, Mummy, for remembering me even when I didn't understand. In sha Allahu, from now on I withdraw my stance that I won't marry now. But Mummy, Daddy won't force me into a marriage, right?"

The laughter amused them further. Daddy took her hand and said, "Come here, Auta. I will never force you into a marriage. I give you the liberty to bring whoever you want, as long as they meet the criteria laid down by our religion, that is all."

She smiled and said, "Thank you, my Daddy. May God preserve you both so I can live with you."

Mummy smiled and said, "Auta, or have you actually started a relationship without telling me? I see your face brimming with indescribable joy."

She covered her eyes in feigned shyness and said, "Daddy, look at your wife!"

He smiled and said, "No, Mummy, don't tease Auta. Go over there and finish it with your daughter," pointing at Aneeserh.

Aneeserh, who had been lurking in the corner witnessing the wonders of God, prayed in her heart for them: "May God guide them and make them realize the truth of showing their children love and affection."

As if from nowhere, she heard Mummy saying, "My daughter is sophisticated. Even tomorrow if she brings a husband, I will marry her off—isn't that right, Aneeserh?"

Aneeserh forced a smile and lowered her gaze.

Ayusha burst into laughter and said, "Of course, she wants marriage! Right now she even has a suitor."

Mummy quickly cut her off, saying, "What kind of useless nonsense talk is this?"—realizing that Aneeserh had fallen into intense embarrassment as a result of Ayusha's slip of the tongue.

Daddy also realized this, so he stood up, saying, "I'm heading to the mosque, I think I heard the call to prayer. You guys go perform yours too." He walked straight to his room, performed ablution, and headed to the mosque. The girls likewise headed upstairs to observe their prayers. From there, they continued with their activities.

Ayusha's parents were honorable, generous people who respected human rights and admired Aneeserh's maturity. Ever since they were in 100 level, they had wanted her to live in their house, but she refused because she didn't want to be a burden to them. Therefore, whenever she came for the weekend, she let them seek her out for safety reasons.

Normally, whenever she came for the weekend, upon return they would load her up with plenty of provisions. This time was no different. Today was Monday. After waking up, they prayed, bathed, dressed up, and went to Mummy's room to greet her. Then they trooped over to Daddy's room, where they exchanged greetings and bantered for five minutes, as Dad was a very jovial person. He opened his side drawer and pulled out 20,000 Naira, handing it to Aneeserh while saying, "My daughter, take this small token to manage."

She used both hands to receive it and said, "Thank you, Abba. May God reward you with goodness and open more doors."

"Amen, blessed daughter."

He turned his gaze to Auta and saw her making a pitiful face. "What is it, her father's favorite?"

She pouted further and said, "Daddy, am I not going to be given fuel money?"

He smiled and said, "Auta, fear God! Just yesterday you filled your tank."

She scratched the back of her head and said, "Well, let my pocket money be increased, Daddy."

He smiled and said, "Auta has sworn to milk me dry today! Anyway, here is 5k, hold onto it."

She took it with both hands, expressing her gratitude.

They had a hurried breakfast, bade Mummy farewell, and went out. Upon reaching school, they went straight to the lecture hall.

Thus, life continued until they began their second semester exams. On the day they finished, Aneeserh went over to Ayusha's house, stayed for three days, and then packed her things and returned to Dangyatin.

KYAWUNAA JARABTATAA BOOK COMPLETE MAMAN SHAKUR

Summary

This Hausa fiction excerpt, titled "Allura Tono Garma" by Rookiey Kaxs (written by Maman Shakur under the complete book title Kyawunaa Jarabtata), follows two university friends, Ayusha and Aneeserh, studying at Umaru Musa Yar'Adua University. Ayusha is a wealthy-spirited, stunning, yet impatient and expressive Katsina native living in town, while Aneeserh is a fair, well-to-do, and calm Jigawa native from Dangyatin who lives on campus.

The story opens with the duo rushing to class, anxious about missing a lecture by a strict lecturer named Mr. Ojokolo. Ayusha breaks down in sudden tears, overwhelmed by an inexplicable feeling of impending doom, but Aneeserh comforts her. They decide to skip the class and instead plan a weekend visit to Ayusha's affluent and loving family home.

Upon arriving at Ayusha's house, they are warmly welcomed by the gateman (Mallam Ayuba) and Ayusha's affectionate parents. The narrative highlights the stark contrast between Ayusha’s playful, pampered, and dramatic relationship with her parents and Aneeserh’s quiet longing for such family warmth. Over the weekend, Ayusha engages in lighthearted banter and playful manipulation of her father (getting him to drop his "anger" and hand out money), while Aneeserh quietly observes with humility and deep respect. After spending a pleasant weekend filled with food, laughter, and parental generosity, the friends return to school for their second-semester exams, after which Aneeserh visits Ayusha for three days before finally returning home to Dangyatin.

Description

The text is a serialized contemporary Hausa romance/drama novel excerpt (written in mixed Hausa and English introductory frames). It blends rich cultural nuances of Northern Nigerian university life with domestic family dynamics. The narrative structure flows from academic settings (hostels, campus walks, libraries) to domestic comfort (luxurious family homes, parental indulgence, kitchen interactions). It emphasizes character contrasts—combining Ayusha's loud, spoiled, yet fiercely loyal and affectionate personality with Aneeserh's reserved, composed, and observant demeanor.

Analytics

• Character Archetypes:
  • Ayusha: The quintessential spoiled, dramatic, yet deeply loving and charismatic "favorite daughter" archetype. She drives the plot through her emotional swings and mischievous interactions.
  • Aneeserh: The foil character—quiet, introspective, emotionally reserved, and deeply appreciative of familial love because she lacks the same overt domestic closeness.
• Thematic Elements:
  • Social Class and Friendship: Bridge between town and campus, differing financial backgrounds (Fulani wealth vs. modest means, though both are well-off).
  • Family Dynamics: The power of positive parental reinforcement, unconditional love, and healthy banter contrasted with student independence.
• Pacing & Tone: The narrative shifts from mild campus anxiety to lighthearted domestic comedy, maintaining an engaging, conversational, and episodic storytelling style typical of popular Hausa pulp/digital fiction (Littattafan Hausa).

Comments

The excerpt is an entertaining and warm slice-of-life read that captures the essence of modern Northern Nigerian campus friendship and family life. The author excels at injecting vibrant local color—such as the humorous interactions with the gateman, Mallam Ayuba, and the affectionate parental spoiling of Ayusha ("Auta"). While the plot progresses slowly in this particular excerpt (focusing more on character bonding and domestic scenes than high-stakes conflict), it effectively establishes emotional depth, particularly through Aneeserh's silent longing for the warm family environment she witnesses.

Conclusions

This passage serves as a comforting and character-driven segment of a larger romance and domestic drama. It successfully showcases the warmth of familial bonds, the loyalty of platonic friendship, and the cultural realities of university life in Northern Nigeria. By the end of the excerpt, the foundational relationships are firmly established, setting a harmonious stage for future narrative conflicts or developments as the characters conclude their semester exams and transition into the next phase of their lives.

Extended Summary

The narrative centers around the inseparable bond between Ayusha and Aneeserh, two undergraduate students at Umaru Musa Yar'Adua University in Katsina. The excerpt opens with a tense moment on campus where Ayusha is gripped by an irrational sense of dread and sudden melancholy, causing them to miss a lecture with the strict Mr. Ojokolo. Seeking solace, Ayusha insists that Aneeserh accompany her home for the weekend.

Upon arriving at Ayusha's upscale residence, the atmosphere shifts from academic anxiety to cozy domestic comedy. They are greeted enthusiastically by the gateman, Mallam Ayuba, and welcomed inside by Ayusha's mother with warmth and playful scolding. The weekend unfolds through a series of lighthearted domestic routines: cooking Indomie, sharing meals, joking around, and witnessing Ayusha's expert art of wrapping her father around her finger through dramatic, affectionate pleading.

Beneath the humor and comfort, a subtle emotional undercurrent runs through Aneeserh. As she watches the playful dynamic between Ayusha and her parents, she experiences a wave of quiet grief and longing, wishing she shared that same overt display of parental affection. Despite this inner ache, Aneeserh remains grounded, humble, and deeply respectful. The weekend concludes with generous parting gifts of cash from Ayusha’s father for both girls, a hurried breakfast, and a return to campus. The excerpt wraps up as the friends successfully weather their second-semester exams, cap off the term with a brief three-day sleepover at Ayusha's house, and finally part ways as Aneeserh travels back home to Dangyatin.

Detailed Description

This excerpt is a quintessential piece of contemporary Northern Nigerian popular fiction (often referred to colloquially as Littattafan Soyayya or modern Hausa campus fiction). It paints a vivid, sensory-rich picture of student life intertwined with elite domestic comfort.

• The Settings: The text bridges two distinct environments—the bustling, pressure-filled university landscape (characterized by rushing to lecture halls, worrying about strict lecturers, and navigating hostel life) and the serene, opulent sanctuary of Ayusha's family home. The home is depicted as a space filled with the rich aroma of gourmet cooking, comfortable parlor banter, and a secure environment guarded by a familiar, loyal gatekeeper.
• The Interpersonal Dynamic: The core of the description relies heavily on contrast. Ayusha is high-energy, expressive, easily moved to tears, and unapologetically dramatic—traits that endear her to her parents and make her the center of attention. Aneeserh, on the other hand, acts as the cooling anchor: she is observant, internally reflective, less prone to public outbursts, and carries a quiet dignity that earns the quiet respect of Ayusha's family.

Deep-Dive Analytics

• Psychological Subtext of the Characters:
  • Ayusha’s dramatic shifts—from predicting an impending doom to weaponizing her "baby of the house" (Auta) status for money and forgiveness—highlight a psychological profile built on absolute security. She is a girl who has never had to doubt her place in her parents' hearts, allowing her to lean heavily into theatrical vulnerability.
  • Aneeserh’s character represents the hidden emotional labor of friendships involving disparity. While she participates in the joy, her internal weeping over Ayusha's parental closeness exposes a deep-seated emotional deficit in her own life, adding a layer of melancholy to her otherwise composed exterior.
• Socio-Cultural Markers:
  • The "Auta" Phenomenon: The text explores the cultural trope of the last-born (Auta), who is traditionally granted immense latitude, pampering, and indulgence within Northern Nigerian households.
  • Class and Generosity: The ease with which Ayusha's father hands out substantial cash sums (20K Naira and 5K Naira) underscores an upper-middle-class domestic stability that shields these young women from financial stress during their studies, contrasting sharply with the typical struggles of average Nigerian undergraduates.
• Narrative Structure & Meta-Interjections:
  • A unique technical feature of this text is the author's (and transcriber's/reviewer's Rakiya's) conversational meta-breakdowns ("A dai-dai lokacin alk'alamina ya tsaya..."). The writer steps into the narrative frame to talk directly to the reader, creating an intimate, fireside-storytelling atmosphere that bridges the gap between traditional oral storytelling and modern written pulp fiction.
