While waiting for the bus
Stranger: hi
Me: hi
Stranger: you’re from a different country?
Me: yes
Stranger: where?
Me: I’m from the Middle East
Stranger: Which country?
Me: Bahrain.
Stranger: So if I told you to kiss me, you wouldn’t. Muslim women only kiss their husbands.
Me: If you told any other stranger to kiss you, she wouldn’t.
Stranger: If she was Christian she would smile.
Me : ** keeping quiet**
Stranger: Bahrain is where the prophet’s wife’s dress came from.
Me: Excuse me?
Stranger: The prophet’s wife, his youngest, Ayesha. The dress she wore when she married the prophet came from Bahrain, right? It was woven there.
Me: I don’t know.
Stranger: You didn’t study that in Islamic History? You should read some history.
Me: I will.
Stranger: You should read some American History as well. You know they had slaves here?
Me: Yes.
Stranger: Read about that.
