It was a fabulous--importantly none SNOWY day, sunny, bright, day in the market. Lady Basra decided to go get some fresh fruits and vegetable. As she was dressed in a most discreet manner, black hijab, flowy silk buyibuyi. Lady B looked great in the glistening of the sun rays. She also had a showy, pretentious colorful oriental baabiis that was a gift from her aunt who has just returned from China. As she was deciding to grab apples or pears--- she noticed a shadow standing behind her from the corner of her eyes. She purposely ignored it. She walked a little further to get some space. The figure continued to follow her, this time, coughing to get her attention. Upon quickly glancing back-- Lady Basra noticed it was a very heavy lady in a brown full military burkhah. Only her beautiful, eyes emphasized with Arabian eye liner could be visible through the burkha eye see through.
"I beg your pardon? Can I help you? " Lady B asked with a faint of fear in her voice.
"No, Abaay. Pardon me. I don't mean to exhaust you with my sudden appearances and shadow standing. My name is Cherine Baadhiweyne. I know you from the Somalinet Forums." The stranger spoke with a little heavy bass voice that a smoker or a woman with male hormones would have.
"Excuse me? How do you know this? My identity is anonymous. Did you speak to my family? " Lady B asked with quite breathless afraid-ness.
"No. I cant disclose how I know. I was sworn to be silent. But may I have the pleasure to sit with you for tea at that doughnut shop? (she was pointing at the outdoor pastry shop across the street, which I am sure she was more than familiar with)
"No. First, prove to me u are Cherine from the forums. What is the current topic of discussion in the forums?" Lady B asked.
Cherine, looked left and right, coughed and whispered. Bismilaahi, the most shocking thing ever dear Basra. I was quite freaked out."
"What is it Cherine?"
"She's very brave definitely, laakin I hope she exhausts all avenues to find a cure for this condition because sidani nolol maaha. Beard with feminine clothes and eyeliner? ilaahay ha shifeeyo"
"Oh the Indian chubby girl with a beard?"
