Chapter 6

She was contemplating what to order for dinner when a tapping at the door alerted her to Sheikh Abdul’s return.

This time, he came bearing another sort of gift. Dani’s eyes went wide when she spotted the familiar paper bags. “McDonald’s! There’s a McDonald’s here?”

He grinned, “Indeed. It is so close that you can have McDonald’s every day if you wish. I thought about asking you what you wanted before I left, but then I decided it might be a nice surprise. Next time, you can choose.”

He placed the bags on the table and pulled up a chair. It was clear that this time he was not planning to leave while she ate, and Dani was so delighted by the surprise of American fast food, that she decided to let it slide. She dug into the Big Mac and crispy, golden fries. Abdul noticed that she didn’t hesitate to eat in front of him this time, and he felt certain that this was a sign of progress. He opened his own meal, and took a small, polite bite.

Eyeing his food, Dani took a long swig of Coke, then said, “Whoa! What is that? I’m pretty sure that’s not on the menu at American McDonald’s!”

Abdul glanced at his sandwich, politely finishing his bite before responding. “I hadn’t thought of it, but probably not. It’s called the McArabia Chicken.”

Dani laughed, “Oh. Well, it looks good. Once in Japan I had this sandwich called a Hot Gold Masala. It was a chicken sandwich with curry sauce. It was kind of weird, but kind of good, too.”

The Sheikh grinned and tore off a bite of his sandwich, offering it to her. To his surprise, she took it without hesitation and popped it into her mouth. “Not bad!”

Noticing the knitting on the bed, Abdul said, “What are you making?”

Dani shrugged, “To be honest, I have no idea. I’ve never knitted anything before in my life, so at the moment I’m knitting a square. Eventually I’ll try to make sweaters and socks, but I guess that for my first time I should stick with something easier, like a scarf or a blanket.”

To both of their surprise, the conversation flowed, smooth and friendly, throughout dinner. As they finished their sandwiches and fries, Abdul pulled out two crispy apple pies, but Dani groaned, “Oh, I’m stuffed. I think I’ll explode if I take one more bite.”

Abdul shrugged and smiled, “You’re sure? OK, more for me,” and polished both of them off in a few bites.

Dani was astounded by the way the Sheikh put away food. It reminded her of the way the guys on her high school’s football team used to eat. Extraordinary quantities in record time. As he finished his last bite, he asked her what she planned to do with the rest of her evening.

“I know it’s not that late, but I’m pretty tired. I think I’ll just read a book and go to sleep.”

The Sheikh said, “If you’re tired, I should go. Thank you for having dinner with me.
