I was the only man at home. In fact, I was the only other person at home. I could hear her phone ring, but she was in no mood to answer. I had to do s...omething.I was still a very young boy, very pampered, and had never had to do something of this sort. I was just not ready to handle a situation like this. I took a deep breath. I walked towards her, hoping I can help her relax, and convince her to believe everything will be fine.I was now only a couple of feet away from her and was just about to. Her other fear now was that if the new Emir did not have her strangled, the Princess Zubeydeh would exact her revenge.Djamilla's fears were increased when the Chief Eunuch told her that she was no longer the Head Wife and that the new Emir had no wives but that his mother, the Princess Zubeydeh, would be using the Head Wife's separate living quarters and assuming the rôle of number one of the harem.Less disturbing was the news that he had ordered a display of all the women in the harem.. I tried to not let her see me staring but a couple times she caught me looking and just turned away. Oh well, I thought, so much for my chances with her.Did I mention her cheerleader smile? Perfect teeth (of course) and a smile like a Dallas Cowboy cheerleader – a smile that said “Seeing you just made my day! How bout a big hug?” Of course, that hug didn’t actually happen but every time I saw the smile, at least one part of my anatomy strained to get a little closer to her.As the weather got. Seems he thoughtbecause they were “paparazzi” they didn’t have to showID with birth date and a driver’s license. Wrong.Jeff got outside, took a breath of fresh air, hethought: “I don’t think I’ll be coming back hereanymore. I’m sticking with the country western set.The only time they go nuts is when Allen Jackson orFaith Hill shows up.” The place was stifling. Thesudden change from the ear shattering noise to justthe sound of the traffic was.
