metacharacters and the ll command UNIX/LINUX?

The working directory is bin and under bin there's a subdirectory named datafiles.
"../bin/datafiles"
I have to enter all the commands from the bin directory.

here's what i have to do:
Use metacharacters and the ll command to list all filenames under the datafiles directory that contain a dot "." with the letter 'a' after the dot.

I know how to list the filenames if i'm in the datafiles directory. ll *.*a*
but how can I list them from the working directory (bin)?
