Chapter 14 Mahjub Al-makki

• Mahjub Al-Makki
• I wake up to the alarm clock blaring next to my pillow. It was a little past five-thirty in the morning, time to purify myself and start my prayer. My thoughts drift back to the dream I had during the night.
• With my mind focused on my grandfather's health and a glimmer of hope that at least Hope would let me explain what happened, I pray on the small rug that always accompanies my travel gear.
