It was a Friday night and she was all alone in the street searching for food, water, and most importantly for a kind look. She just passed an intersection and saw a lot people. She thought she might go and talk to them, maybe someone will be able to understand her and help her. She approached it and found them dancing and laughing really loud and a lot of these weird things that is all over the place just lined in front of these built cottages.
She found a girl with two of her friends wearing the weirdest things she has ever seen. One was wearing a blue tight piece of cloth with a strapless revealing red top, the second was wearing a black dress with a lot of overlapping fabric and the funny thing that someone apparently has cut it off, the back was longer than the front, and as for the third she was singing and looked like she was dizzy and she did not really notice what she was wearing. She was too concentrated that she is rubbing her rear to the wall.
Nofrure thought she would give it a shot and started talking to the first girl "Do you know where are we?"
The girls looked at her and started laughing. So the second girl asked Nofrure talking really loudly and speaking really slowly and opening her mouth really wide "D-O Y-O-U S-P-E-A-K E-N-G-L-I-S-H ?"
Nofrure was really disappointed and she did not understand what this girl just said but she has been hearing this same phrase all day. She recognizes the rhthym of what they are saying. She walked away but not too far. Then she was startled and stopped when she heard a guy saying something behind her that she obviously did not recognize.
The guy "Look at this ass!" Nofrure turned around and saw the guy speaking to his friends "And ooooh She's bringing Halloween early this year and dressed like a Pharoah with the wig and the make up and everything" He now looked at her while trying to approach her more " Would you like a ride sweetie?"
She was terrified. She may not know what he was saying but she felt his eyes undressing her. She felt naked and helpless.
She yelled in coptic "Don't you dare come near me"
"Sexy, she is fierce and european too" he said "voulez-vous venir avec moi?" he added in a poor french accent. His friends laughing in the background.
She gave them her back and starting walking quickly, more like running; wrapping her shawl more and more around her. But they kept following her and kept saying things and more things. She was about to break down but she kept thinking "I am a strong woman and I will do this, I will not fail my mother". Then suddenly she hear a much deeper and strict voice yelling and the boys were silenced.
Police officer: "what are you boys doing here?" Nofrure turned around and was watching what was happening but she was relieved. She felt that this will be her rescue.
One of the boys stuttered and said "We are taking a walk"
"Oh yeah, well you better walk somewhere else or I would like you to keep me company for the night"
The drunk boys started walking the other direction and the officer approached Nofrure and asked her "What's you name?"
She answered in Coptic again "I don't understand" and all the police officer could notice was the sadness in her eyes and the trembling of her body.
