         ❣️Phateemah Taheer❣️

      *YUMNA'S POV* 

Going to the Air hostess training institute was one of the most exciting things that ever happened to me...My parents along with Shay dropped me at the airport.

For some reasons i kept looking,checking and scanning through the people at the departure,hoping to see Aaa somewhere in the crowd.My parents noticed i was scanning through the crowd and decided to leave me to search for whosoever i was looking for...."Yumna are you looking for someone in particular?".....Umma asked with suspicious eyes......"Ahmad i guess,she's looking through the crowd for Ahmad"....Shay said mischievously.

Umma looked at me with a blank expression..."Yumna take care of yourself,always remember ki rike mutuncin ki and always be prayerful,the trust your father and i have in you is what is allowing us let you accept this the job har muka barki kije training institute en".....Umma said ...."Yumna don't make me regret this...i dont like the tension between you and Ahmad,you forced me into accepting him and accepting your relationship and yanzu magana tayi nisa,six months is all I'm giving you to enjoy your dream job kaffin na kaiki dakin ki".....Abba said with so much seriousness.

"In shaa Allah abba.i ll do as you have said i ll don't with my training in three weeks in shaa Allah and cone straight home before my first flight".....I said hugging my parents and watched them leave.

"Six months,you never told me about the six months deal".....Shay said looking at me with eyes full of questions......"Do you seriously think i ll quit my job ,I'm sure Abba is threatening me saboda Aaa"....i said with laughter in my voice.

"Yum please call Ahmad before you leave"....Shay said...."Why on earth would i call him,I don't owe him any explanation,i have said all that there is to say to him ,amma he's stil angry".....I said angrily......"He's not angry,he just feels neglected and avoided.You don't pick his calls or call him back when you see his missed calls or reply his messages,who then is giving attitude "....Shay said rolling her eyes in annoyance.

"Kinga,I'm only avoiding him because i dont him to even think of changing my mind because my mind would never be changed,in yaga dama yazo ruwanshi...it wouldn't make any difference to me since he's decided to be stubborn about this rather than support me".....I said stubbornly....."Yumna are you being fair?"....I asked....

"Being fair to who?".....Ahmad asked out of nowhere...."Hae Ahmad,you  are here...i knew you'd come"....Shay said sounding all too excited....."Hey Yum,I'm so glad i made it here in time,i was scared you'd leave before i get here"......Ahmad said all smiles...."I'm so glad you made it".....Shay said smiling like she won a lottery...."Hy Aaa,i should go,an fara checking in"....i said with a blank expression...."But you can check in and come back ai,in aka fara boarding sai ki tafi".....Aaa said calmly......"Why go through all the stress when she can just check in online,where's your phone?...i ll just check in for you after all you are not checking in any bags and you have your ticket right here with you, just your hand luggage".....Shay said snatching my phone from my hand and immediately started checking in online on my behalf.

"I still really have to go because i need to scan my passport and submit other documents at Ethiopian airlines office since I'm officially a staff yanzu,goodbye Aaaa".....i said giving Shay a hug...."Yea true i almost forgot good bye Yum,call me as soon as you land...I love you".....Shay said hugging me back...."love you Shay"....i said and pulled my box down to the counter.

I could feel Ahmad's gaze on me as i walked over to the counter with my kimono flying from the side revealing the skin tights i wore on the inside. I walked away without even looking back.....I know i have changed,i know things have changed,i know i still love him,but something just keep pulling me away from him and i just can't explain it.

LOVE AT FIRST FLIGHT-(Haduwar mu) Episode 10

          ❣️Phateemah Taheer❣️

I got to the counter and showed my international passport to the lady at the counter and with a smile she scanned it and looked into the monitor in front of her...."Actually Ma'am your ticket has been changed"....the lady said with a smile....."excuse me?".....i said sounding surprised....."Your ticket has been changed ma'am ".....the lady repeated...."Changed to what and by whom?".....I asked not sounding so nice....."Your ticket here is for the Economy class and from the records here it states you are a new recruit for the airline "....the lady said and paused.

"Yea fortunately i am,but i don't see how that affects my ticket"....i said a but nicer this time...."All the new recruits have had their tickets upgraded from economy to first class,since automatically you are a staff,just not a trained  member of the cabin crew yet"...the lady said verifying the inform from the system in front of her and handed me my new tickets ...."For real,thats so nice of the airline"....i said smiling so hard one would think i won a lottery...

"Yet ma'am,airline policy,this way to the VIP lounge,boarding will commence for first class passengers first before that of the economy is announced ...do have a pleasant trip and a memorable training at the institute".....the lady said sounding so professional....."Yea sure...will do that..have a nice day"....i said and majestically walked away from the counter...

I was heading towards the departure hall when I decided to say goodbye to Aaa and Shay one last time since they were still around...."I knew you'd come back,didn't i tell you she would?"....Shay said looking at Ahmad...."I'm glad i get to you one last time before my three weeks of torment without you begin".....Aaaa said all smiles...."I will see you guys in three weeks,stay safe and healthy"....i said my usual way of saying goodbye.

"not to worry,i ll take very good care of myself and of Ahmad,you know he's safe with me".....Shay said smiling endlessly and looking at Ahmad....."je l'aime encore Shay ( i still love him Shay) ".....i said sarcastically......."vous plaisantez j'espère ( are you kidding me?)"......Shay replied laughing so hard and turned turned an angry face....."je rigole (just joking)"....i replied not sure if i meant that....

Ahmad stood there unsure of what we were saying "Could you both speak English please?"....Ahmad said with a smile....

"This call is for passengers of Ethiopian airlines flight 324 to Addis ababa,please board the aircraft at gate 8".....the announcer said....."ok guys,we are boarding now,i really have to go".....i said super fast...."Ok...have a safe flight ".....Shay said hugging me...."Translate what i said and i ll kill you".....I whispered to Shay as she hugged me......"Ke da kika sani".....Shay said and i gave her a hard wink...

I looked softly at Ahmad and then walked away...."She still loves you"....Shay said so loud that i could here her....."i knew you'd translate without me asking"....Ahmad said laughing so hard....i turned with a smile and gave Shay a hard look as i watched her smiling at me....

I moved to gate 8 and boarded the aircraft,first time flying first class and first time feeling like a member of the cabin crew already.

The first class was really out of this world,all first class are but being my first time flying in first class i was woowed by everything...a flight attendant collect my ticket and scanned through it with her clearly eye lined eyes and well mascarad long eye lashes and said "Here's your seat ma'am,let me if you need anything"....she said nicely pointing to  a seat beside me.

"Thank you"....i replied looking at the seats...A guy was already seated by the window seat next to mine with a face cap covering his face...The letters on the cap spelled "EMJAY"....I sat next to him not caring who he was or what his face looked like under the cap..."EMJAY....hmmm"....i said to myself.

LOVE AT FIRST FLIGHT-(Haduwar mu) Episode 7

    ❣Phateemah Taheer❣

Growing up changes a lot of things...Growing up has changed me...I can't believe what I did...Aaa used to be the centre of my universe. I vividly remember the days I used to cry when Abba was against me dating Aaa because he thought it was just a childish crush,but then I thought it wasn't...Now I have no idea what has changed or why things were changing.

"Maryam,look at me and tell me what's going on?are you getting over me?or something".....Ahmad asked with all seriousness.....  "I'm not Aaa,you should know me better...you and I have been together for as long as I can remember".......I said shouting at the top of my voice...

"Well I feel like like I don't even know you anymore Yum"......Ahmad said so sorrowfully...

I moved backwards still looking at him....."this is what I want,and nothing in this world is more important to me right now than this".....I said and turned to enter the house......"Not even me?"....Ahmad said looking at me....

I just couldn't move an inch anymore after he said that...I however knew I had to say something "Aaaa...I....just......"I struggled to say....."Its ok".....Ahmad said with a smile and zoomed off.

The feeling of finally achieving my dreams made me smile all the way in,my conscience however kept telling me I'm hurting the guy who has shown me love more than anything in the world.

"Yumna how did it go?"......Aunty Binta said strolling into my room......"I got it"......I said jumping in her arms......"I love things international,no wasting of time,da ace Yan Nigeria ne da sai an gama murda murda and then they will employ masu connection...Amma wannan sharp sharp".......aunty Binta said and we both started laughing so hard.

"Yumna".....aunty Binta called out with all seriousness and then sat me down on the bed...."Yumna I know you have wanted this for so long and I know its such an achievement,but Yumna nothing is more important for a girl your age than to settle down....Ahmad has been here throughout your teenage years,and he is still here"......Aunty Binta said with so much concern in her eyes.

"I know,but Aunty where is this suddenly coming from?"......I said looking pale for a moment........."Yumna I was in the kitchen and I saw you and Ahmad arguing outside and I overheard you conversation...Yumna he is right....no one is stopping you from doing your dream job,however Ahmad can't wait for you forever,he is getting ready to settle and he wants to do that with you.why not just .......

"Let my dreams go because of Ahmad?".....I said interrupting Anty Binta ......"no he isn't worth that much to me....guys come and go but this is once in a lifetime kind of opportunity".......I bluffed out......."Yumna baki da hankali ne?guys come and go?are you saying you'd rather leave Ahmad than give up on this?".......Anty Binta asked angrily.

I stood up from the bed and went straight to the mirror and stared into it....."Desperate situations require desperate measures"......I said with not an ounce of smile on my face.

"Yumna I don't want you to regret this ".......aunty Binta said.... ."I won't,the sea is full of fishes anty,fatan alkhairi nakeso Kiyi mun " .......I said smiling at her......"Allah ya kyauta"......Aunty Binta and walked out almost ripping the door out of it hinges.

I took out my phone from my purse and sat down to go through the email my employers had sent with a smile on my face.

I finished reading the email and laid down a little...to reminence over the past years....I know in all honesty in my heart that I could swear Ahmad and I belonged to eachother,I know at several points in my life Ahmad would do anything for me and back then I would have done anything for him too but I want this so badly I feel like I can hardly think straight.

I know I'm making the right decision and I know Ahmad would soon realise that and will be even more proud of me than I am of myself.

"Your father needs to have a word with you".....Aunty Binta entered and said and left almost immediately....

I looked at the door as Aunty Binta locked it behind her,wondering why she was so pissed off.

I got to Abba's parlor full of anticipation of what he might say,having no idea if this would be good or bad....."Come in,why are you standing by the door".....Abba said and I smiled.....

"Abba I forwarded my acceptance email to your email".....I said sitting down by his feet.

"I went through every detail Yumna,but you never mentioned anything about going to Air hostess training school for three whole weeks for training,before you eventually start flying.."......Abba said with a frown.

"Yes Abba,its just three weeks,the school is in Addis Ababa and......"...."have you discussed this with Ahmad?".......Abba asked with all seriousness......"Y..es.....ye....s.....I did "......I lied.....

"its ok since you have discussed and he is alright with it"......Abba said with a smile.

"Amma Yumna you should know as your father there are some decisions that are hard for me to make,especially when I'm against something on which you have shown interest, dama dai I had a chat with Ahmad's father and he suggested your wedding to take place in 6months  and I couldnt agree more...I'm letting you be an airhostess not because I want to,but because you want it so much,so I'm letting you have your dream for the next 5months,after which you have to quit and settle down,and I believe its time"......Abba said plainly.

"Abba just 5months??I thought the dream of every career person is to reach the peak of....."Peak of what?".....Abba interrupted....."Yumna I'm letting you do this because you can only do this now as a single lady,but once you get married shikenan.....Yumna you are getting married to Ahmad in 6months and that's it."......Abba added and left the parlor.

I sat there hopeless,not sure what to do....Ahmad used to be the centre of my universe,and now he's the only thing stopping me from reaching the climax in my chosen profession....."What do I do now?".....I thought helplessly to myself.

LOVE AT FIRST FLIGHT -(Haduwar mu) Episode 6

        ❣Phateemah Taheer❣

Having achieved ones' dream is one of the most fulfilling feelings in the world.Flying around the world has always been a dream..I have always dreamed about travelling the world with my future husband,but that's in my fairytale world ofcourse,because I say to myself ,1.what are the chances of me marrying someone who has that much money to travel the whole world with,and 2.someone who has that much money will be too busy counting his millions to ever make time to travel the world with me,and 3.I can seriously not marry a person who wouldn't have time for me which bring me to 4,what if I marry someone who has the money,and the time but has phobia for flying.

I couldnt take chances,which is why being a cabin crew became the safest option for me...I get to travel the world,Africa,Europe,South and North America ,Asia,and every other continent in existence and probably any new one to be found if there's ever that possibility.

I was almost home when my appointment letter was sent to my email and I could hardly contain myself as I scanned through it....I got home a few minutes after that and could hardly lock my car before rushing in to tell my parents.

The first face I saw when I entered was Ahmad's...."Hey sweetie".....I said sounding super excited...."Hey...what's with the happiest?"......he asked smiling...."I just got a job".....I said shouting at the top of my voice...."bara na fadawa su Umma I ll be right back".....I added and left the parlor.

I went back to Ahmad after informing my parents and they were more than happy...."Yum,when did you change so much".....Ahmad said so softly immediately I sat down and opened the ice cream he got me.

"what do you mean?".....I said pretending to not know what he was talking about....."You have. Changed Yum.....no calls,no texts".....Ahmad said and I swear he has never looked as cute and adorable.

"Nothing has changed Aaa(the name with which I have always called Ahmad since we were kids)..I just have a lot going on that's it,but other than that we are good"......I lied ...."If truly you are telling me the truth then why  not look at me and say it".....Ahmad said so calmly...

"I had this thing going on and I just wasn't myself and I needed space from everything and everyone shiyasa"....I said bluntly......"Shiyasa kikae ignoring din calls ena?since when did we start hiding things from eachother Yum?".....Ahmad asked sounding very worried.

"I got a job with Ethiopian airlines,Abba was against it at first but later agreed to it and I was really scared and upset ,which was why I was acting a bit off.".....I said confidently.....

"Yumna you changed way before then...I have been noticing but not saying anything,Dan Allah if I did something wrong just tell me?"....Ahmad said and I have never felt more pity for him....."I'm so so sorry Aaa...I promise you you did nothing wrong...and things will be better okkk"......I said s calmly...

"promise"....Ahmad asked with a smile....."Sure thing Aaa".....I said with a smile too...."I have to go"....Ahmad said. .."So soon?".....I said with a frown...."Yea,walk me to my car,I have something to show you"......Ahmad said we stepped out all smiles.

I stood a bit far from the driver's seat door as I watched Ahmad bringing something like a file out of his car...."What's this"....I said with a smile as I collected the file from him...."Its a plan....our future house plan...I brought it so you will choose Wanda yayi miki".....Ahmad said....

"Do I have to?just choose which ever one suits you".....I said not really excited about the whole idea......"But why?...Maryam (which is what he calls me when he's so serious about something) we have been planning our whole lives together for as long as I can remember,why is this decision suddenly just mine alone".....Ahmad said now sounding so serious.....

"Yea...I know...Amma ai we still have time to plan all these,I don't want to pick something that will go out of fashion before the wedding"......I said before realizing how lame it sounded...

"Haba Maryam,wani irin out of fashion kuma?...houses hardly go out of fashion,Kowa chooses his style to his own taste...kuma Yumna you are a graduate,I am a graduate too and I have been working for more than three years now....what more are we waiting for?..I think its high time we both settled down...and now is the perfect time....my parents and I discussed and we think six months is the highest we have to wait,so the earlier we start the building the better".....Ahmad said and I couldnt hide my shock and amusement.

"Six months kuma??".....I said sounding surprised......"Aaa,we haven't talked about this and you know it..these are things we have to sit and discuss first,its not only your decision to make".....I said bluntly.....

"I didn't know we need to make this decision again,because I thought we made it a long time ago,Yum this is what we both have always wanted...to be married...you are done with school,I am done with school I'm working what else are we waiting for?"....Ahmad asked sounding so confused....

"Ok,lemme be frank with you...im just getting my career started and I need to get to some certain level of climax before even giving marriage some thoughts ".......I bluffed out feeling relieved that I did.

Ahmad stood there looking at me in shocked not sure what to say..I honestly didnt  want to hurt Ahmad,but the truth just had to come out one way or the other.

LOVE AT FIRST FLIGHT -(Haduwar mu) Episode 5

     ❣Phateemah Taheer❣

Eid used to be my favourite time of the year,the festivities,the people,the visits,the new clothes and endless spices in food...This year's Eid took a drastic turn over after Abba declined my request to allow me take  the job I just got.

I have tried so hard,have been trying for the past three days to fight back the tears that can't stop flowing from my eyes...."Yumna are you seriously still doing this?".....Umma sai7d entering my room without knocking.

I said nothing to Umma but just kept on staring at her...."Yumna Kinsan Abbanki,when he says no ,then its for a reason and when he says yes ,its also for a reason,you have been crying your eyes out for the past three days,its Sallah,your favourite time of the year,Amma you have locked yourself in your room for no reason,Shahida came jiya and you clearly refused to see her,Ahmad too...Yumna you can't live your life forever crying like a baby".....Umma said sitting beside me....

"Umma I want this,I really want this job....not only will I get paid handsomely,I love flying Umma,you know I do....what's so wrong with me doing what I love.. ..I know the cultural factor and all but don't you honestly trust me and the kind of upbringing you gave me???".....I said in tears..

"I trust you mamana,I do,which is why I called someone I know at the Abuja office to enquire and he assured me their cabin crew are disciplined and have standards and he assured me to let you if I can take the job".....Abba said out of nowhere and I just couldn't close my mouth...

"You did?".....I asked crying with joy...."Yumna,I ll never stop you from pursuing your dreams,but every father who truly loves his daughter has to do these underground checks before letting her go into the broad world...but now you promise me you will never do anything contradictory to what our religion believes in,I know you know yourself,and I trust you,promise you will continue being the good girl I know you to be".....Abba said...

"I promise Abba,in shaa Allah"....I said wiping the tears off my face with my palm..."go and get ready for the interview,it will start in about two hours,you don't want to be late".....Abba said leaving the room along side Umma.

I quickly jumped out of my P.Js (pyjamas) and into my towel.I took a quick hot shower and decided to dial Shaheeda before getting ready..

"please tell me you are ready and I will pick you in ten minutes"......I said immediately Shay picked....."Hello....is she dead....finally I have been waiting to hear the good news"....Shay said...

"Shay kin fara koh?".....I said...."ah to ai na dauka you will kill your self just because your dad said no".....Shaheeda said....."Anyways yanxu he has agreed,I'm coming to pick you hope kin shirya".....I said super fast...."Ofcourse na shirya...see you in ten".....Shaheeda said and hung up.

I got out of my room wearing a long dark blue pencil skirt,a cream peplum top and a silver belt..I quickly wrapped my head neatly with a dark blue tarha ,picked up my purse,credentials and key cars and stepped out in wedge (my favourite kind of shoes).

Umma I'm leaving"....I said waving at her....."Allah ya taimaka ya tabbatar da alkhairi"....Umma said smiling softly...."Ameen thumma ameen".....I said and got out into the drive way.

I got to Shaheeda's house at about 9.30 am and she was already at the gate waiting for me...."So much for I ll be there in 10"....Shaheeda said stepping into the car..."I had to get ready,you know first impression matters".....I said pulling up my black glasses and pulled out of the drive way.

We got to the audition / interview venue at exactly 10am...I was really surprised at the low turn up...."What do you expect?...not everyone has passion for the job,people like me for instance and how many people of this era actually understand both French and English fluently when most people skip French classes at school and French is one of the two internationally recognized languages in the world,which is why it is a necessary requirement for the job".....Shaheeda said sarcastically...

"Well watch and learn baby...soon you will want to join the clique"....I said closing the door of my car and heading into the venue.

" je vous souhaite le meilleur (all the best)".....Shaheeda shouted...

" Bien sûr, vous savez que je vais bien (ofcourse you know I will do well)"......I shouted back waving a hand.

The orientation/audition/ interview ended at about 2pm and I was very positive I will get the job...."I hope you get the job"....Shaheeda said as I dropped her off at home...."I hope so Shay...thanks a lot for everything"......I said smiling softly.

"ameen Ameen....drive safe,love you Yum".....Shay said...  "I ll and love you more shay"......I said and zoomed out of the house.

LOVE AT FIRST FLIGHT -(Haduwar mu) Episode 4

   ❣Phateemah Taheer❣

Growing up is a constantly evolving process...As we grow older we tend to need things we never needed when we were kids,especially we girls tend to want privacy,our own room, our own space and we always expect everything to be done our way.

As all parents,my parents had dreams of what they wanted me to become...Left to my dad the decision for a career for me was pretty very simple....As a child I was smart,intelligent and really straight forward...I grabbed easily whatever I was taught...."My sweet little Yumna is a born doctor".....My dad would always say...

I wanted that too as I started growing a bit older,but heyyyy....came my cycles and I realized just how much I detested the sight of blood.....No...no ...no I just couldn't stand it wollah....It irritated me as hell,but being a girl I adapted,but that's because its mine,doesn't mean I could ever learn to deal with that of others.

If at the age of fifteen I hated blood that much,what more If i grew older?...."Pilot Abba ...I want to be a pilot"....I always said to Abba.....

"Yumna being a pilot suits men most...besides considering our culture and traditions,no man will let him wife fly all th time".....Abba would always say....."Isn't it the same thing as being a doctor,I would hardly have time for my family".....I would always reply.

"But not as time consuming as being a pilot....you are weak in physics Yumna,and you know you need it to be a pilot"....Abba always said....

"I hate Biology"....I would always say...."plus I hate blood too Abba".....I would add to make my point....

It took a lot of convincing before Abba let me off the Medicine hook and allowed me to settle with Computer science and information technology after trying so hard but couldn't get into the flying school.

"how do I convince Abba now to let me become an air hostess"....I said as I practiced my speech pacing up and down on the corridor.....

"What are you doing"......Umma said as she opened the door without me realising it......."Uhmhmmm...nothing just jogging a bit?".....I stammered......
"Yumna are you 12?....You know you can ask me anything,anything at all.....its either a yes or a no....its that simple....just ask and stop wasting your energy pacing up and down"......Umma said with a completely smile-free face.......

"well Umma,yes I'm pacing and yes I have a favour to ask.....but no its not from you....".....I said slowly and a bit worried....

"Me kike jira then...go and ask him".....Umma said moving away from the door....."Umma just a little tip,is he in a good mood?".....I asked curiously....

"He is in a good mood ofcourse Gobe Sallah,but if you are going to ask him if you can go out with Ahmad tomorrow you know it ll be a no,your father doesn't allow that and you know it..Duk inda mace da namiji suka kebe na ukun su sheda...I'm sure you have mastered those lines by now".....Umma said clearly angry at something.

"no that's not it...its something else and ......"Banyi shirin yin masa da miyar taushe ba and your father said that's what he wants after Eid tomorrow,I have a lot to do,go face your disappointment"......Umma said interrupting me and walked away.

I stood there for what seemed like forever before getting the courage...."now or never Yum"....I said to my nervous self.

"Salamualaikum".....I said as I entered Abba's parlor...."waalaikisalam".....Abba replied....."Abba Sannu da Hutawa"......I said sitting beside his feet....."Yauwa mamana".....he said the Usual way he replies me considering I was named after him mom ,Maryam.

"Abba,I..I..."...I tried to say and the words just wouldn't come out....."Mamana,you know you can tell me anything"....Abba said and that sounded a bit relieving......"Abba I got a job".....I said and almost couldn't believe I said it.

"Really?but where"....Abba asked sounding amazed....."With Ethiopian airways".....I said nervously......"Ok,that's good"....Abba said sounding excited and I almost couldn't believe it....."but as what?What will you be assigned to?Ticketing,administrative duties?tell me the details".....Abba said sounding interested...

"As an ....air.... hostess"......I said looking down at my sweaty palms....."Yumna,you know that an impossible job for a Muslim Hausa girl,our culture,our tradition,the hostesses' outfit just is the main issue here and the too much flying around"....Abba said..

"Abba I know,and I really want this and I know you trust me and believe in the kind of upbringing you gave me....too much flying around would be me working Abba.....and the interview and audition and training is in 3days....Dan Allah kayi Naam,not to mention the pay is incredibly good too".....I said sounding desperate.

"No Yumna...if its about the money,tell me how much they pay and I ll give it to you every month until I find you a suitable job,but just not this job".....Abba said with a stern look in my eyes.....

"Abba please".....I begged....."kije ki sha ruwa,an Kira Sallah"....Abba said and stood up,leaving me there in tears.
