I spent the some few hours tidying up my room and completing a few chores in the house, humming a celebratory tune all the while. The floor shone under my touch, and I arranged the furniture with extra care. Everything felt perfect .
After the chores were done, I headed to the bathroom. The cool water felt refreshing, washing away the last bits of sleepiness. I lathered my skin with my favorite soap, and the fragrant steam was wow., imagining the beautiful ceremony. After my bath, I got dressed. I had been saving this special outfit just for this day. It was a beautiful attire made from vibrant Ankara fabric with intricate patterns. ensuring it was just right, and adorned myself with a few pieces of jewelry.
I looked at my reflection in the mirror, a huge smile on my face. I was ready.Check me naw.
