Seeking Paradise Posted December 2, 2004 IT was getting pretty dark when I left school to head home yesterday. I was walking quickly towards the bus stop when a guy wearing loose pants hanging off his butt approached me. He had that "cool" :rolleyes: limping walk going on....waxaa umaleeyneysaa inuu jiis ahaa su u soconayey. HE was wearing a long, loose hooded black sweatshirt, and had on dark sunglasses (it was magrib mind you!) I was a little nervous and as I sat on the bench, and discreetly moved towards the end. I turned away hoping he wouldnt talk to me. I started praying silently under my breath and mentally cursing my cousin for not picking me up. Who am I kidding! I was scared out of my mind. There are hardly any blacks where I live..and I couldnt help it. People dressed like that scare the hell out of me. I dont care if its black, white, chinese, etc. I heard him cough a couple of times...I sensed that he was trying to get my attention. I was praying that the bus would show up. I didnt want to talk to this person at all. There was this uncomfortable silence. The hair at the back of my neck were literally standing up! :eek: I looked at him...he had removed the hood of his shirt...and his hair was in a messy dreadlock/afro fashion..have never seen something so silly in my life. He was also wearing a gold chain and had a couple of rings on his fingers. HE leaned close to me and as my heart was close to thumping out of my chest, he asked in a soft voice.. "Abaayo somali maa tahey" I fainted...not literally but almost..goodness..who would have thought? Walahi dhalinyaradee intii dhaqankoodii ka tageen bee kiina amerikaanka gaarin. :rolleyes: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
