Dear Riri, Though i didn't have that bond with you, you tried to bring me closer but i am so into my own life challenges that i do not want one more commitment. I remember the first time i met you at push, you were so full of energy, life, smile and kind words, you listen and i thought "she is the nicest ". And that big hug you gave me the last time then you said "you ba, you ran away" as usual with a big smile is the memory of you that i will live with forever. Thank you for the book you gifted me, i know that now more than ever, i will feel the fear and still do it anyway. Thank you for being such a beautiful soul. I didn't imagine i will feel your leaving like this, the thought of it alone makes me shed tears. You will forever remain in my heart Riri. May God console your family and everyone one of us. Halima Abdullahi. Halima Abdullahi.
