Sea Shadow Page #4

Synopsis: Mansoor, a 16 year-old teenager, living in a coastal "freej" (an Emirati neighborhood), has strong feelings for 16 year-old girl Kaltham. But culture and tradition, as well as family hardship, make it difficult for him to express his feelings. A conversation with his "know-it-all" friend convinces him that a gift is the best way to express love, and so, he begins to look for ways to save money for the gift without arousing the suspicion of his family and friends.

- No, we're not!

Here is Mansoor

- Hey guys

- Hey

- Howare you?

- Fine

- Let's go, see you guys

- Be careful on the road

- Like I'm driving? See you

- See you

Believe me

your mother is going to kill you

Don'tworry

- That's my problem

- Sure, as you say

Here the price

Thanks

Where were you?

With Sultan

And what were you doing out so late?

Maybe you should've stayed out longer

you are becoming a street kid lately

-And where's your bike?

-At Sultan's house

What is it doing with Sultan?

Didn't I put it in my room?

Why did you take it?

And when did you take it?

While we were asleep

like a thief, right?

When will you grow up?

When will you become responsible?

Answer me boy!

Where were you?

And where's your bike?

Jasim

Did you talk to your father?

Didn't budge?

As usual

He is stubborn

Ever since your mother died

and you moved to Abu Dhabi

I only see him with those pigeons

Who is he being stubborn with?

The girls are growing up

and he still treats them as children

I don't know how long

he's going to stay in this place

By the way

lt's not just your father

a lot of people are like that

What's the difference, man? It's

all one country at the end of the day

Like my mother says, they'll stay here

as long as there's water in the sea

When are you going back to Abu Dhabi?

Next week

What are you going to do?

I'm not sure

I know what you're thinking about

I think you should take them with you

Kaltham!

Kaltham!

Get the teapot

- Do you want water?

- Please boss

And get a glass of water too

Give him the water

What's wrong with you girl?

Watch what you're doing

Did you see what this crazy guy did?

Speeding in the middle

of the neighborhood?

- He could've killed someone

- It's ok, father

Mansoor! I don't want you

to be reckless like these guys

Okay

God's blessings

Hello Abu Mansoor

hope you are well

Fine, thank you

Mansoor, let's go

Come on! Change your mind, and

put on some henna, there's still time

Let's leave this for the little girls

So why is the wedding at home?

Umm Owaish said she doesn't

want ballrooms and nonsense

and Owaish agreed

Let's not forget

that this is her second marriage

It's not the time to be picky

- The groom's from Al-Ain, right?

- Yes, he's an oMcer in the army

And he's taking herwith him

- May God grant them happiness

- Mansoor, what's up with you?

Hurry up Umm Mansoor

there isn't much time left

Mansoor!

- Hi Maryam, where's Kaltham?

- Inside

And why are you sitting here alone?

What's the matter dear?

Kaltham was crying

- Did dad upsether?

- No

Then what happened?

Where are you going?

Why don't you answer me?

Come here girl!

Where are you going? Come back!

You'll never change

The world turns, we get older

and you're still the same

If I come to visit or not

you'll stay the same

There are girls in the house

justfear God and take care

But, now some lowlife

touches my sister? No!

It's not the first time either!

And now even in our home?

You want to stay in this house

then suit yourself

But not my sisters

Kaltham

There he is! Gethim!

Hello Kaltham, what's up?

I saw some kids chasing Mansoor

I think they want to pick a fight

- When?

- Just now!

Sultan! Sultan!

What's going on?

Was it Salooh's gang?

Yeah, but I got away!

Mansoor!

What was that about?

There's the jack-ass!

And all this time

I thought the gift was for Kaltham!

You don't understand!

What I understand is that you're stupid!

Come on, quickly!

Owaish?

Couldn't you find someone

other than Owaish?

And you ignore Kaltham!

Listen, you idiot

Kaltham came to the wedding

to tell me that Salooh

and hisfriendswere after you

I swear man, I'm telling you

you don't see, you don't feel

What can I do now?

The big fish, you idiot

Didn'twe say that the biggest

fish goes to the prettiest girl?

But...

But what?

I had bought a gift for her

- The anklet

- So you had the right idea

What happened? Are you just dumb?

Okay... I'll take it to her tomorrow

Inshallah, come on, let's go

Your mom's going to kill you, it's late!

You know what my mom did

when she found out about the bike?

I told you!

Man! She got so angry...

she wiped the floor with me

It looks like you got used to it!
