ROOF TOP - DAY
Bright morning sun shooting up into the sky.
SAMEH
Is it him?
AHMED
It is my jewel.
AZHARA
(yawning)
Who papa, who? Is it my brother?
(with awakening
realization)
Oh! Let me see! Please! Please!
Azhara tries to shoulder in. Ahmed and Sameh turn and shush her. Shabouh steps closer and bows, placing a tremendous
hand upon Azhara's shoulder.
SHABOUH
Master, shall I seize him for you?
The girls look up at Shabouh in hopeful anticipation but
Ahmed is already shaking his head.
AHMED
No. We must not let Tzefan know we are here. It would break his heart
and he would never trust us again.
SAMEH
I could tell him...that...I have
come alone.
AHMED
(clucking paternally)
I wish it could be so little
jewel, but he has been hurt. You
could not convince him.
AZHARA
(with childish sass)
Besides, my brother is mad, not
stupid Sameh.
AHMED
(sternly)
Hush child, before I regret
bringing you along. Soon, Sameh
will be you brothers wife and you
will respect her as such.
AZHARA
(contritely)
Yes papa.
Ahmed turns his attention back to the walled corrals below.
AHMED
(wistfully, as if talking to
himself)
Tzefan must return on his own.
And we did agree that we were only
going to make sure he was well.
SAMEH
(melancholy)
Yes, but it has taken us so long
to find him
(thin tears track
down her cheeks)
