Maryam's Family Home.
Maryam was done cooking the food and was now resting inside her room.
While she was trying to sleep her phone started ringing, and she was just about to sleep as she was just lying on the bed.
And she was so weak but her phone's ringing tone chased the sleep away from her eyes.
Although as the phone was still ringing she couldn't find the strength to stand up and pick up the call so she doesn't even know who was calling, she was still lying on her bed with her eyes opened.
"Oh my gosh... I can't find this strength to pick up the call please, I am so tired, who is on the call" she muttered to herself knowing so well that she's not talking to anyone but herself only.
As she was the only one inside the room, so, however she didn't pick up the call and after her phone rang for some few seconds the call hanged up itself.
And the call still came up again, she knew she can't ignore the call this time around so she managed to gather up the strength.
"I just want to have some rest now please, I shouldn't be expecting calls" she said and just approaching the phone she discovered that it was a new number.
Then she picked up the phone and fell back on the bed and then picked up the call and to her surprise it was Deborah calling her.
"Hello" Deborah's voice sounded and then hearing that voice alone she was filled with strength as she immediately seat up on the bed gazing at her phone in surprise because the last time she checked Deborah told her that she wasn't allowed to be using phone.
The phone she was using before was seized from her by her auntie since then and they haven't given her another one.
"H-hi? please who is on the call?" Maryam responded, stammering, as she was trying to recognize the voice the more.
"Come on! what is wrong with you Maryam, can't you recognize my voice when you hear it? come on it's me, it's Deborah!" Deborah's voice responded and Maryam was left smiling at her phone, it was just unbelievable to get a call from Deborah all of a sudden how did it happen?
"Wow...? it's really you Deborah? you can't be serious I mean you really surprised me though, I thought you said you weren't allowed to access phone...? what happened?" Maryam responded.
"Come, it is really a long story but I think I just have to make it short when we see at school I can tell you more! honey so you can believe what happened when I came back after you gave me those clothes" immediately Maryam heard Deborah made this statement she took in a deep breath closing her eyes.
Then resting her head on her shoulder because she was obviously expecting a sad news just like always.
She immediately believe that Deborah might have went to borrow phone just to tell her what they did to her because she gave her some clothes to where and that is because the ones she was wearing has already torn apart.
"Deborah what is it again? what have they done to you this time around? they collected the clothes or threw it away?" Maryam asked with a gentle voice, she was sure that is obviously going to be the topic but unfortunately it was never the way she expected.
"No! my auntie haven't done anything to me, far away from that please! this is something really surprising but I don't still know yet what to believe" Deborah responded and then Miriam stepped out of the bed bodily.
She started bringing out brief smiles interested to know what happened and just like Deborah said 'far away from that' that means what she has to say is very far away from what Maryam said.
"So if that is not the problem then you should break the amazing news to me I know it must be a good news then since your auntie didn't disturb this time around, what's it then?" Maryam asked.
"You couldn't believe what happened after you gave me those clothes when I returned home" Deborah said.
"I can't really imagine what it is dear" Maryam responded and then Deborah narrated everything for her how it all started when she returned and how it all happened and Maryam was surprised to hear all that and none of them could quite understand what Deborah's auntie could be planning.
"You can't tell me that she started being good to you all because of the clothes I have given to you?" Maryam replied.
"Uh... I don't know what to call it but for now you are definitely a magician, so you made magic to set me free using your clothes? that was amazing, really amazing, Maryam, I'm so glad to have such a sorcerer as my friend" Deborah responded and Maryam was left chuckling.
Her mind haven't even gone that side Deborah was taking it to.
Though she understand very much that Deborah was just joking just like they've always used to joke as friend but it is still surprising why her auntie had to change her mind because of clothes ordinary clothes that have been used.
Though hearing those statement from Deborah Maryam understand very much that Deborah's auntie might be playing a very bad deadly game for Deborah which Deborah will never discover until she fell deep inside it.
"Come on Deborah, you and I know that I am not a magician if I really want I could have settled my own problem first but I was not" Maryam responded to her laughing and Deborah kept on insisting.
"Well, I believe that it is up to you, I don't know what you are still waiting for, why don't you serve your problems immediately my magician!"Deborah said to her and the both of them laughed.
"Alright jokes apart, Deborah this is the best time you have to be more careful with whatever you are doing with your auntie, I don't know what she's planning as of now but whatever game she's playing you are never going to discover it until you have fallen deep in it"
"Please you have to promise me that you'll be very careful with her" Maryam warned an obediently Deborah accepted her advice without having to question any of her word.
"Alright, I'll be very careful just like you have told me to and thank you very much for always giving me these advice that kept me going, thank you as well for your magical clothes" Deborah said while Maryam was about to respond but suddenly saw her step sis standing right in her door gazing deadly at her.
"Deborah I will talk to you another time I have a little problem to solve" Maryam said to Deborah with calmed voice and then hanged up the call and concentrated on her step sister.
