[QUOTE="Andrew D. Gable, post: 1635703, member: 4144"] [i]Superstitious Egyptian dogs[/i], thinks Asenath as she passes by the foreign amulet-merchants. Then, [i]No. I mustn't be so hateful. It doesn't please the Lord[/i]. She touches her hand to her forehead momentarily and walks on, the Egyptians speaking accented Hebrew behind her. She had recently returned from one of her excursions into the land promised her people, and she was weary. She made her way to her mother's tent. Flicking aside the tent-flap, she ducked as she entered. She greeted her mother and Miriam where they sat on the floor. She sat down beside them, eating, listening to her mother. "I can't help it sometimes, Mother. I try, I try to get rid of my anger, but it is hard. Those Egyptians in camp don't help, either. Preying on the superstitious and weak of faith..." she trails off. A blank look overtakes her mother's eyes when she mentions the Egyptians, as often happens. Without another word, she finishes eating and lays down to sleep. Seeing her lay down, Miriam does also. Naomi sits up for a long time, humming tunes from her childhood. Then she goes to bed, too, and Asenath falls asleep. [i]Home[/i], she thinks. [i]Whatever else happens, I'm home now[/i]. She smiles to herself and hugs Miriam close to her. [/QUOTE]
