Omar's cousin Sami lived in Canada with his parents. Last summer, Sami came to visit the family for two weeks. Omar and his mother cleaned the house and cooked couscous. At the airport, Omar held a sign with Sami's name. The two cousins hugged and laughed like old friends. At first, Sami mixed English words with his simple Arabic. Omar helped him, and Sami taught Omar new English words. Together they visited the old market and drank fresh mint tea. Grandmother told them funny stories about their fathers as boys. One evening, the whole family ate dinner on the roof. Sami said, "I feel at home here with all of you." When he left, everyone cried a little at the airport. Next year, Omar is going to visit Sami in Canada. ❦The end — well read.Mark it finished to keep your streak alive.Mark as completedTake the quizLog in to save your progress and quiz results.
