Dania made a lovely welcome card for them, and wondered what else she could give them as a 'Super-Special-Eid-Gift' just from her.
"Maybe you can make bracelets for them using some charms and beads!" suggested her mother, handing a craft-kit box to Dania.
"Ammi, you are the best!" said Dania as she opened the craft-kit box. It had shiny beads, colourful strings and lovely charms.
Dania spent the whole morning making pretty bracelets. She chose different colours of beads and charms and made three bracelets - one for Ezra, one for Ruhi and one for herself.
After a quick lunch, mother took her to the Sharjah International Airport to receive their guests.
Ezra and Ruhi were happy to meet Dania. They were twins, and it was hard to tell them apart. To confuse everyone more, they were wearing similar clothes!
Aunty Soha introduced them, and gave a clue on how to tell them apart. "Ezra giggles and chuckles little more than Ruhi," she whispered to them while the twins were busy looking around at the sunny blue sky of Sharjah.
"You know, it is dull, gray and rainy in London most of the time," said Ruhi, staring out of the window.
"It is so warm, dry, and sunny here!" giggled Ezra.
Dania and Ammi laughed as they could now see who was who, and aunt Soha smiled at them. They took a longer route back home as requested by aunt Soha, "We are not tired and we want to see the beautiful city!"
They drove past Corniche, and the guests looked with wonder at the beautiful paved path, lined with date and palm trees.
On reaching home, Dania gave them the gifts she had prepared. The girls loved the cards and happily wore their new bracelets. Ezra took the green bracelet and Ruhi took the red one, which left Dania with the blue bracelet.
"Now it is easier to tell them apart," laughed Ammi and offered everyone fresh laban buttermilk to drink.
