Chapter eighteen

The next morning my father-in-law appeared. I was preparing breakfast. He said: “Last night I dreamed Sattar. I was confused in my dream. I said: ‘Sattar! Are you fine?’ he turned his head and said: ‘I’m Samad.’ I went forward to kiss him, but he disappeared.”

Then he cried and said: “I’ve missed my kid. He’s surely suffering into enemy territory with the infidel Baathist. I don’t know why he was annoyed; certainly he’s not in a good place.”

Wanting to make his father happy, Samad laughed and jokingly said: “No, Dad. In fact, he is in a good place. Sattar now is flying happily. I think he’s annoyed of you that disrupted our name like this.”
