Things are getting hot outside, and Buck decides its time to go. But one final delay might have cost them everything.
Incidentally, I recognize that the term "haji" might be considered a racial epithet. I don't think its considered too offensive, and I'm using it in a character appropriate way. But if you're offended by this and the term is a deal breaker for you with respect to reading on, PM me. You reading this is more important to me than the choice of one particular word.
Yeah, I've heard that term used before. It's accurate to the setting, and I've heard some folks argue "it's not an insult because everybody here wants to go to Mecca"... an assessment whose accuracy of I would question.
