Adequate amount of ostrich meat."
At the end of the meeting it was
Agreed that the Hakims will have
Their share. Now, Dolly and

Celebrating Godfrey's and Barry's
Birthday. They were having gifts
Bestowed to them when Damian
Intruded from the meeting in the
Large conference room. "Hey
Godfrey Barry Happy Birthday fellows!"
The brothers bubbly bashfully boasted
"THANKS DAD! Godfrey said,
"We're ten Now and we MEN NOW,
RIGHT?" Damian responded,
"Not yet, son. You are on your way."
Barry asked, brashly, "how long it's
Sposed to take?" Molly added her
Motherly wisdom, "becoming a man
Doesn't happen all at once it's going
To take another 12 or 13 years depending
On you. So don't rush it. There are
Things you need to learn first. So
Ask your father about that, alright?"
They responded, "yeah ma."
Father Hakim and the rest of the
Hakim men from the meeting were
Now also present. Father Hakim
Said, "Happy Birthday! Big men!
Shadir yelled, "GrandDad they won't
Be men until they're old!" They
Family were hysterical with laughter.
A ring of the chiming doorbell
Produced mother Hakim DJ Damali
And Pierce. They brought bags of
Bread in place of cake. Damali
Said, while searching the bags
"Happy Birthday guys
We have here wheat bread sour
Dough and sweet bread.
Pierce said, "You know the
Options. What's your choice?"
DJ came to embrace them as they
Stood shoulder to shoulder. He said
"Come on guys chose the sweet bread.
Let's get on with the show!"
Barry said, "Okay why not. Next time
Buy us pie!" Damian uttered, "what
Ever we can manage guys." There was
Music singing. Dolly yelled across
The room, "we have pot luck chuck
Family." Damian silently separated
From the joyous scene, to concern
Himself in other affairs. He called
The drivers. Dolly saw
Him leave and mentioned to Molly
"Damian just left in the limo, I wonder
Where He's going?" Another door bell
Announcement. Joshua opened
The door. "Aha! Cousin
Desiree and Jason!" Everybody
Was Overjoyed to see them. Jason
Eyed the place. "Hey where's big
Man Hakim?" Dolly answered,
"He's out on errands. He should be
Back soon." 3 hours swept by. The
Family began disbursing. After
A few minutes. Molly mused out
Loud, "Where is Damian?" There
Was 15 more minutes before that
Question was answered. Damian
Unlocked the door. There on the
Opposite side he stood with Mother
Daughtry. Dolly and her twin were
Much elated to see her. "Mommy
What.....we're soo so happy to see
You mommy!" Molly said, "Thank you Damian
Baby for bringing our mother home!"
Damian said, "Yeah, you know this
That the whole family must stay
Together that includes ma here."
So she will stay in GrandDad old
Room." Molly and Dolly escorted
Her to the room while Damian retrieved
Her belongings and two big batches
Of water 2 bags of oatmeal
flour and a surprising
Large can of beans. Meanwhile
The two young Hakims, DJ and Damali
Were On a scavenger hunt with Pierce,
Their associate. First stop a factory
That manufactured frozen food.
Their fate was not promising as
They only managed to amass a
Collection of toilet paper water rice
And 2 bags of Oatmeal. Nothing
From the frozen food factory. Damali
Said, "Well hey...we Hey at least we
Won't starve immediately. We'll take
Time." DJ got rowdy, "Come on man
We ain't gonna starve. We got we
Got...stuff. Pierce said, "Yeah, and
The stinking side of this dim damn
Situation is we won't have any problem
With wiping our minimal defecation away."
"Is THAT THE BRIGHTER
SIDE MAN!!?" Damali asked.
"DJ said, there's no brighter side."
The three groaned grim faced,
"Yeaaah." Meanwhile the women
Including Desiree and Mother Daughtry
saw to it that all of the children had
meals. Elliott Adian Elijah Abbas Ashton
Addison and Amari were sitting at the
kitchen table with a bowl of rice
and beans a A some cheese and a
small portion Of ostrich meat. Dolly
said, "and be sure you eat you eat
and LICK! your bowl you hear me!
The youngsters yelled,
"Yeah ma!" There were two more
Pots left to feed 22 more people.
One meal. Next week Was a meager food
delivery day, 2 Bags of rice for each Hakim
Household 2 bags of oatmeal
2 cans Of beans. The driver said
"I don't think we'll make it back here
Until next month. But the proper
Present people will deliver to the
Biggest food markets." Then he
Dished out two packs of ostrich
Meat for each family and closed
His truck down. "Okay, be well, sèe
Again next month."
