"Hey Moses,
what's up?" asked Jesus.
"Just taking a
little hike. Do you know Muhammad?" answered the one with the graying beard.
"Yeah, hey how
goes it, Muhammad? Would you care to join us for lunch?"
"And why not?"
was the answer.
Muhammad asked
Moses for his flask and sent his wife Fatimeh to fill them up. Maria started
handing Jesus lotus leaves which filled up with food as soon as he held one with
both of his hands. He in turn handed them out to the others. Eva had in
the meantime covered a large tree stump with a floral tablecloth on which she laid
out some cups and flatware.
"What is this
stuff?" asked Radha.
"Manna, of
course" replied Jesus.
"Funny, it
tastes just like chickpea curry."
"Mine tastes
like a moussaka" said Harry Gabor.
"And mine
looks like hummus" said Moses.
"Yeah mine
too," added Muhammad "just, how am I going to eat this without pita?"
"No problem,"
said Jesus while reaching into Maria's knapsack. He pulled out a nice fluffy
pita bread wrapped in a cloth. Maria unwrapped it and put it on the tree stump
next to the cups. Fatimeh took it and gave it to Muhammad. As soon as she lifted
it, another pita appeared on the cloth. She gave that one to Moses, and then
took one for herself. The Krishnas and the Gabors apparently didn't want any
bread. Maria got some cups and poured wine out of her canteen handing them out
to everyone. Muhammad and Fatimeh declined of course, but Muhammad said:
"This hummus
is a bit dry, perhaps a bit of olive oil?"
"I don't see
why not, if I can turn water into wine, I can surely turn it into olive oil as
well" said Jesus and touched the flask that Fatimeh held out to him.
"Good wine,
what is it?" asked Harry Gabor.
"It's Italian"
said Jesus "Cantina Zaccagnini Montepulciano."
They ate in silence for a while 'til Muhammad broke it up with a loud burp. |
