ayah

The most complicated part was coding the text-messaging system, Ayah recalls.

Ayah Abu Basheer is a lecturer at the Islamic University in Gaza City.

The day before the steamer reached Southampton, Mamma asked her if she would not like to see the ayah again.

That is her Ayah, who comes up from behind at a pace so different from her youthful mistress's.

All, that is, save Nina's ayah, who opportunely produced a bottle of smelling-salts and passed it to the mem-sahib.

It was the next morning, and Nina's ayah sat on a chair in the passage, guarding the door of her mistress's room.

When Colonel Darling returned from parade the ayah was gone from the passage-way outside his wife's room.
