Just then the camel stopped...they were not far from the oasis...it had been 6 days now...they were all asked to get down and mingle with the villagers.."Arabs"
Jude walked around for a while till someone drew his attention
"She was so beautiful...."
She came out of her village with a clay pot on her head...
Suddenly, her eyes met his

What a magical moment
He stirred up the courage to ask her name
"Ummi"
Wow...in arab ummi means mother
"Mummy's girl" he muttered..
"Are you one of the visitors?"
"Yes.My name is Jude.."
Ummi had such beautiful eyes....At once Jude felt what he had rarely felt...love

"Will you like to stay with us for the next year?"
"Umm.yeah?"
He did not know he was to stay for that long....
He'd better get comfy in the new home
