Day 25

Everyone stayed away from us. A woman came offering us a bowl of soup. I wanted to pass it to Bibi but i realised that she was staring at the big pot of soup instead with longing and hatred. The teenage girl introduced herself as Rashida and explained that she had taken her brother's name after ha had passed away. I could see from her eyes that she loved her parents a lot too. She was also starving. She opened her bag and took out a can of sardines and a bottle of water. She gave Omar, Bibi and i each a sardine. She passed Bibi the bottle of water and said that the taste would not be as bad with the water. I promised that i would repay her when we get to Australia, and i taught her some of my soccer skills like bouncing the balls from knees to knees. We were still very hungry, i decided to peer into her bag to check if she had got more sardines but she did not. But i spotted something even more precious than gold, there was flour in her bag.......
