10:00AM, I got my backpack back at Khasab Airport. When I was talking with Mr.B, a man, Mr.S, got into our talk. Mr.S: "Japan?" Me: "Yes, Japan." Mr.S: "こんにちは(Konnichiwa/Hello)" Me: "こんにちは" Mr.S had a homestay for 1 week in Japan 20-some years ago. He still can speak some Japanese words. He has a good impression about Japan. Luckily, Mr.S took me to mountains. |
Almost 360° view. | |
On the way back.
Mr.S: "Are you married?"
Me: "No, single."
Mr.S: "Why?"
Me: "No special reason."
Mr.S: "You should. If we have a good doctor, but, he dies, nobody can help us. If we have a good engineer, but he dies, nobody can make anything. Something like that. We need to keep bearing children. You see? What's your religion?"
Actually, I'm always bewildered by this question. I'm an atheist like most Japanese.
Me: "Buddhism."
Mr.S: "Who is the greatest?"
Me: "(OMG! I forgot. His name stops at my throat.) I'm not sure."
Mr.S: "You don't know? Anyway, Our God Allah respects other religions like Buddhism, Christianity. I don't know about your God. But, like your God...."
I'm so sorry. I was getting sleepy. In order to wake me up, I tried to ask something.
But, Mr.S is very talkative and seems to love talking about religious matters.
Mr.S: ".....Adam.....Eve...."
Islam looks like Christianity. I though in my dream.
Mr.S: "Are you sleepy? I talk too much."
Me: "No, no. I'm so sorry."
