A week later, the Ademolas were settled in a village in Katsina state called Radda. Radda is a Muslim community that is under-developed with 99.9% percent of its people as Hausas. The Ademolas found it difficult to communicate with the people who were mostly illiterates. After a week, they were beginning to catch up with the people's language. Salamat who was a fast learner was catching up faster than her parents. Salamat was sick throughout the 16 hours journey because she was allergic to the petrol smell. Her parents were not on good terms and it was written all over them. Even though the police swung into action immediately after hearing Salamat's part of the story, it turned out that justice wasn't going to prevail and Mr. Ade decided to let go of the matter. The police claimed to have gone to Habib's house for his arrest but he was nowhere to be found. His twin sister was the only one at home and she was taken into custody in place of her brother. Two days later, Habib was arrested but released on bail after spending 2 nights in the cell. He was released due to his father's connection. The police claimed they have no found any evidence of wrongdoing against Habib. Mr. Ade then decided to let the sleeping dog lay. Salamat found the community to be peaceful and serene with friendly and loving people. The community was full of rocks and mountains which made her love it more. Salamat who was a lover of nature decided to take a stroll one cool Monday morning. Her mother was reluctant to let her go saying she's still new in the environment but finally gave in after much persistence. She was instructed to come back in an hour. Since their arrival which was almost a week, Salamat has been indoors except on occasions when she would be asked to get something from the provision store across the street. The first day she went out to get some bread for breakfast, she noticed she was being looked at strangely. When she got back home, she told her mum about it but her mum only shrugged and said, "They know you are not part of them, and also your dressing is different from theirs." The second time which was on their market day was much more frightening because she was being looked at by almost everyone at the market square, even the old men were not excluded. She was wearing jeans trousers and a short gown with a small veil and she quickly went back home to inform her mum. Her mum only laughed and said, "I told you already that you are different from them and the major reason why you were being looked at is no other than the fact that you were dressed like a westerner. Some of them were looking at you because they were admiring you while others were looking at you because they dislike it. If you don't want it to repeat itself, you better start behaving like them. Like the saying goes 'When you are in Rome, behave like a roman." Since then, whenever Salamat was going out, she was always with a hijab and today was not an exception. She strolled around the big community till she was tired and then decided to take a rest before continuing her sightseeing session. She sat on the pavement and noticed a small stall opposite her. Feeling thirsty, she went towards the shop to get a sachet of water. There were two other customers there, who the shop owner was attending to. The shop owner was an old woman. "Good morning mama, I want to buy a sachet of water and a pack of biscuits", Salamat said stretching a #100 note towards the woman who was looking confused. Salamat who got the information that the woman was unable to comprehend what she said decided to try her Hausa skills to see if it would work. Still stretching her hand, she said bending down slightly, "Mama ina want (Good morning, mother), I want water and biscuits", she completed and tried demonstrating it by putting her fingers together and raising it to her mouth. The guy beside her burst into laughing while the shop owner smiled seeing the girl's inability to communicate in Hausa. "You are a comedian... ", the guy said still laughing, making Salamat embarrassed. "How come you are in this community and you can't speak Hausa?", he asked looking at her while the shopkeeper attended to the second customer who left a few minutes later. "You expect me to answer that after taunting me?", she asked surprised that he could speak English. He laughed again and replied "No dear, I am so sorry. I did not mean to do that, it's just that I could not control the laughter that was bubbling inside of me." Then he looked at the shopkeeper and said, "Mama tace tana so ruwa de bikini (Mother, she said she wants a sachet of water and a biscuit)". The woman nodded and smiled and then went to get what Salamat requested. Salamat paid the woman and said, "Thank you". "Mama tace Nagode (Mother, she said thank you)", the guy interpreted to the woman and the woman nodded in response. Salamat turned to go but was stopped by the strange guy. "Hey miss, won't you thank me?" "For what?", she inquired with a puzzled look. "For helping you to interpret", he declared, smiling. "I did not ask for your help but anyways thank you", she mumbled and ran out of the shop. "Wait", he called after her but she was gone already. After running for 5 minutes, she decided to go home, she was tired and famished. Salamat has been a good runner right from her secondary school days and she was given an award during an inter-house competition when she was in SS2. She could run anytime she feels like it and even anywhere. She drank the sachet water and trekked for another 10 minutes before she got home. Lunch was being served when she got home and she quickly sat to eat. She kept her biscuit aside and devoured the meal which was yam and egg sauce. After eating lunch, she laid on the couch and slept off.
