Na daga baki nace, "amma...".

Duk wadda kika ga tayi wani da ba daidai ba, dama can halinta ne. Ke yanzu da ya aureki, kin taba tunanin daidai da rana daya akan kiyi yadda zaki yi ki kori kishiyoyinki?".
Na girgiza kai a hankali, kafin na tuna cewa bata gani na, na daga baki da kyar nace "a'ah", maganganunta sun sanya min rawar jiki, sun kuma jefa ni cikin tunani.

Na koma na kwanta tare da ajiye wayar a gefena, maganganun da muka tattauna da ita suna kara min tariya a cikin kaina.
