Potiphar's wife page 2 by ric gustafson
Pateras pointed toward the distant seaport. " There is Sena".
Zuleika looked sad. She missed her mother and husband. After they had docked by the Nile, Zuleika jumped into the water. She swam back to shore.
Her father frowned. " Change into some dry clothes".
Zuleika changed into a dry skirt and jacket. She then worked her long brown hair into braids.
She and her father disembarked the ship. They approached a man who was surveying the dock area.
Pateras asked for directions. The man spit on Pateras's shoes. He mumbled something in Egyptian. He walked away,
" What did he say father?".
Pateras shook his head. " He called us lazy Cretans".
" Why do they hate us so?".
He frowned. " We are only sea people to them".
