Crispy at the same time. Sweet. Mmmm. The meat breaks apart in his mouth. Crumbles ever smaller and grainier as he slowly chews it.
"Mmmmmm, Mom. This is delicious. I like the heat in these." Malik smiles and looks at his mother.
"Alhamdulilah," Rhoda says, as she takes a spoon of soup to her mouth.
"Alhamdulilah indeed," says Malik. "Allah has taught You His secret recipé well, Mom." Malik takes another piece of meatball. This time he adds a bit of sauce and scoops it all up with a bit of spaghetti. Not a drop as he places it in his mouth. He smiles happily. Then he looks at his father.
"Dad, Allah has been really kind to us for sharing this recipé with Mom, hey."
Amr looks at his son. He can't help but smile at him.
"Alhamdulilah," Amr says and looks at Rhoda. Rhoda smiles too.
"Can you imagine Mom. Allah knows all the spaghetti and meatball recipés and chose to share His secret recipé, only with you. He must love us very much that He wanted you to learn it. Insha allah my children will also get to taste His secret recipé."
"Insha allah," says Rhoda and Amr together.
