we knew it might be his last birthday, the whole family decided to come together for a huge birthday
celebration at the nursing home.
Dad was a good storyteller. But this time I told Dad that it was now his turn to listen to some stories for
a change. One after another, people told stories from their hearts, while Dad listened with tears in eyes. People

But by the time the number 16 bus gets to Souk Road, it is always full, so I can"t get on it. I have to wait for the number 49, because sometimes there are empty seats on it.
