A Sample Of "Kismet In Ahahahamen"...

Chapter 1. “I say, ‘It’s a bull,’ and he responds, ‘Milk it.” --- Arabian proverb. ******************** Just outside of Dubai, 1923… “You broody camel’s turd, Jaspar! Idi Bey, our illustrious chieftain, may he live for one hundred years, --- Allah willing, and praised be His most holy name, has said he does not want any more harem girls! Even though our glorious Sheikh Karim Ali Muhammad Fadil Jamael al-Melek always enjoys a new and rare delight!” “I never heard our most honored Idi Bey say he no longer wants to gift our sheikh with new girls, Uncle!” “That is because you do not listen carefully! You are not a subtle man! But, now, you and I have the extra chore of keeping this girl fresh and choice! As if we did not have enough problems with all the things piled on our packs and in our cart!” “But, she is so exquisite, Iman! And, she was just sitting there in Yasmin’s cafe! I could not resist when Yasmin’s little son came running to me to tell me about her, to pull me away from Shumaila’s place!” “You like Shumaila’s shop way, way too much!” “Yes, true… I like going there because of Shumaila! She always gives me delicacies of her food, so generously!” “Ha, that’s not the only thing she is generous with!” “Of course, of course, but Shumaila is such a Balochistan beauty, is she not? So, it is to be expected!... Ah, those eyes like black velvet night, her hair like cherry amber, her creamy-skinned bosom more lush and fragrant than all the perfumed oils of Arabia!” Iman rolled his eyes at this lovesick description of the pretty plump Shumaila. Jaspar sighed as if his heart had swelled to twice it’s size with lust. “I could live in Shumaila’s beautiful eyes and I would be continually intoxicated with the joy of it!” “Yes, yes, yes, I am surprised you have not asked that hennaed flower to marry you.” “I did, --- oh, I did, Iman, but she would not have me! Shumaila told me that she wants to remain free, unhampered by any man, especially not a husband, but I have not given up hope. A woman so gorgeous and so reliant on her beauty will one day realize that even beauty as abundant as her’s will not last forever and she will come to know that I have loved her for years and that I will cherish her always... You do think she is worth waiting for, do you not?” “Yes, yes, yes, of course, naturally I do! Shumaila is a most luscious Baluchi woman! I agree! I agree! And, I suppose I will forgive you for capturing the golden hair!” “The golden hair’s limpid eyes are like the heart of a sapphire, or like the still pools of a Persian garden, her skin like flawless pearl, that delicate round face blushing like a little rose and her tiny feet with the bright pink toenails, so sweet and adorable, so enticing! I wanted to bite her toes! Yes, I could not resist taking her and it was very easy, Iman! Why are these visitors to our great lands so foolishly trusting? They’ll drink anything served them, at anytime, anywhere! Then, they collapse like a three-day old bread pudding, and we can just scoop them up, an easy prize for a sultan or a sheikh or a lucrative delight to sell in the slave markets! Yes, yes, yes, you are right! You are so right! By the stinking breath of a gnarled jinn, tourists are the most careless, cloddish idiots! But, now, now we truly must get moving! I want to be as far away from here as possible by tomorrow’s dawn! Make sure the golden hair is well-drugged and well-covered and that her bonds and gag are secure, so she is completely silent.” “Yes, yes, Iman, my honored uncle, yes, yes, yes!” Jaspar and Iman urged their camels stealthily forward. --- Copyright 2026 by Sorelle Sucere. >>> Camels are silly!!!... ...And, --- "Midnight at The Oasis"!!!...
