"love her and she will love you back"

i read the title of this blog in a book the other day and i made my skeptical face. an unrequited love affair is more what i was thinking.

love cairo, but as a westerner, and a female westerner at that, i may love cairo but she will never love me back.

not that i love her by any means, she and i only need small doses of each other. sinai on the other hand, well we could run off together and be quite happy for a long time.

one more night. one more day. then back to the clock, back to my grind, back to the familiar which makes it possible for me to adapt to and adore the unfamiliar.
