Episode 2

Halimah hummed a tone as she waited for the water to filled up the bucket. The tap was not running in their apartment. Aisha isn't back from school and she need to cook for her. It's close to magrib and she wanted to get everything done before the time for prayer.

She hates cooking in the dark. She still feel tired and weak and she had even started considering going to the hospital. She can't go on with self medication, she said to herself. She had missed a lot in school and exams is around the corner. She really need to take care of her health.

"Sister, your bucket is full." she heard a male voice beside her. "Oh, thanks. " she said, stopped the tap from running and tried to carry her bucket but the man stopped her and volunteered to help her out.

She accepted the offer immediately, she is too weak to carry the bucket. She didn't even bother to look at him. She hardly interact with the neighbours unlike Aisha who is everybody ''s friend. "Why is your tap not running?" he asked and dropped the bucket in front of her apartment.

"It's faulty. " Halimah said. "I will contact a plumber to help." he said and she nodded, she was about to enter the her room with the bucket of water, when the voice said again.

"Sorry sis, my name is Ade,. My apartment is the two flats away from the left." Ade said and Halimah nodded then take a look at him for the first time but only for a second.

"My name is Halimah., thanks for the assistance." she said and was about to take in the bucket when dizziness over powered her and she fell, Ade was very surprise and scared at the same time. He moved to her and sprinkle some water on to her face wondering why has she fainted, probably she is pregnant, he thought.

Halimah opened her eyes for a start and wonder where she was, then she remembered how she fainted. "Subuanallah! " she muttered under her breath and realised her friend Aisha was sitting beside her bed.

"Aisha, " Halimah called, Aisha looked at her friend and smiled. "Alihamdulilah Halimah, how are you doing now? " Aisha said. "Where am i?" Halimah asked and Aisha told her how she got home just in time. "You fainted and Ade and I had to rush you to the hospital. We were very scared. " Aisha said to her, she is happy, her friend is now at the hospital receiving medical attention.

Ade knocked and waited for an answer. The door opened and Aisha was surprised to see him.

"Hello Ade, " Aisha said smiling at him.

"How is your friend doing?" he asked, Aisha opened the door wide and let him enter the house. It was his first time in the apartment. Halimah was sitting on the floor, writing some of her notes.

She stopped what she was doing when she saw him. "I can see you are now doing very well. Hope you are taking your drugs?" he asked and Halimah nodded before she thanked him for everything that he has done for her. It was after she left the hospital that her friend told her he paid the hospital bills. "Come on, what are friends for?" he said, he chatted with them for a while before he left.

"I think this man is becoming too friendly." Halimah said to her friend. "I think he likes you." Aisha said.

"Stop that nonsense. Just help me warn your friend not to come here again. We don't take male visitors. " Halimah said to Aisha who nodded sarcastically and they returned to their school work.
