Saturday Day Party.
The collective elegant dancing was going on by the time the Magools arrived to the party.The girls were exquisititely dressed; Basra in clean White, satin silk flowy gown, Ureeeyso in yellow silk gown & Dangirl in plain black & white gown.MRs Magool wore a flash red silk gown.Mr. Kamal was standing at the door anticipating the arrival of his Ureeyso-- along his side--stood the Miss Kamal & Mrs Jamaican.They had no expression on their face other than utter contempt on the impending danger of talking to Mrs Magool again.Mr Gadfly stood far--away in the corner --his hand neatly folded behind him, his shoulders upright straight.Occasionally he will make little more --to run his hand through his hair & return back to the folding.
"MrS Magool--- welcome -- I am very happy you could make it!" Said Kamal as he kissed Mrs Magool on the hands.
"Why thank you my dear-- we were almost mugged by a bunch of Gypsies. (Later refered as the moryaan in the 21st century)
"Oh No-- are you alright?" Asked the concerned Kamal.
"Oh we are fine-- they just passed up by-- i know it is nothing -- but still my heart was beating faster than a race horse.I so apologize for our late arrival, sir" MRs Magool said as she eyed the room. She was inexplicably in a great mood. She planned to dance with the other married men in the dance floor--while her husband sat down & conversed with other dull, looking men.Mr Kama meanwhile was looking at Miss Ureeyso-- particularly smiling, & delighted to see her in that ravishing yellow, expensive gown--that Mrs Magool, without hesitant announced she saved for it! He took her by the hand--& also kindly asked Miss Basra for the other hand--but she decline politely.Miss Basra however--directed him to Miss Dangirl---while she went about the room, looking for her friend--Mrs Doomed Luggooyo.
The dance floor was filled with ravishing, refined couples--classic music was in the air, the crowd danced in a traditional protocal.The males stood in one long line facing opposite the female--as they exchange directions, as they danced away---arm to arm & glare to stare!Miss Basra Finally saw Mrs Doomed Luggooyo standing alone while her husband was busy reading certain famous somali poet.
"Aaaahh Mrs Doomed L. --so nice to see you.I dare say i was wondering if you will come to the party being -- newly engaged" Spoke Basra--as she ran towards her friend--in a succession of quick embrace & affectionate kiss cheek greetings.
"Oh Basra-- i am engaged-- not dead. Beside, my fiancee` gives me enough time to myself--to worry about time to spare.He is always in his garden or library." Mrs Doomed L spoke with some reservation of sadness. Basra observed her friend most pitifully & nodded her head to oblige her--or rather give her a none obvious smypathetic acknowledgement.Mr Gadfly however was starring at Miss Basra alot. HE could not take his eyes off her.IT was so bad that Mrs Doomed realized it & commented about it!
"I dare say-- Mr- G--does stare at you a great deal.I wonder why? I thought he was very proud & cared for no other lady other than the --Misses in his company?? Asked Mrs L
Basra quickly threw a glance at Mr G. & immediately gave Mrs. L a gentle smile.
" I have no idea why He stares.I suppose he judges my demeanor or thinks me very intolerable.Whatever it is-- i care not. " Said Basra
"Perhaps he wishes to ask you to dance. He is a very rich man basra- if he asks you, he does you honor by singling you out! MRS L. responded with a smile.
"I promise i will reject him --not only will i reject him-- i will spit on his face.Oh he does annoy me. He is the most --abominably --annoying proud man i ever met." Retorted Basra while unaware that the very gentleman she was condemning was approaching behind her.
"Miss Basra Magool-- will you care to dance? You will do me a great honor." Asked Mr Gadfly.
" YES" ---- answered the bewildered Miss Basra.
And so they began to dance--awkwardly & silently.
"Do you ever speak--Mr Gadfly? " Asked Basra --as she danced--just when the music started began---the noise of the music simply diminishes their conversation being heard'.
'Yeah-- i do speak--when i find it appropriate" He retorted.
"Do you drink Camel milk MR Gadfly? Asked Miss Basra.
"I beg your pardon?" responded a shocked, confused Mr Gadfly.
Ha Ha Ha --Laughed Basra-- & then responded-- "nothing-- i just wanted to see--if u were alive"
"Well what is your successes? he grimly asked.
"Not sure actually.You strike me as a self, pompous egotistic bore-- who needs serious ----slappings!!!
Mr Gadfly ---shocked & offended --whipped out his belt & started chasing Basra --out. Meanwhile Miss Dangirl--was screaming--- yes Beat her ! Beat her!!
Sorry I cannot continue the story-- i was bored in the middle of the story!!
