"Ah, yes. Well, I don't know if I can call you a teacher until you have taught one of those classes." Abasi pointed out with a huff of laughter. "Though I have no doubt you will be an excellent one. You must let me attend your first classes; I would love to see how you teach." He was sure it would be very different from his own approach; it was a sign of his own growth that that now excited rather than infuriated him.
Their hands held and lips together, Abasi's mind was pleasantly empty of the usual constant and analytic thoughts he held there. As they parted he went to eat himself, though did not move too far from Loren. "I thought you might think it too fast. In Egypt two people did not usually live together unless married. Though I suppose we already do, but....in different rooms, which is not what I mean." For a moment he glanced up at Loren with a nervous smile, as if making sure they were on the same page about that.
"People may talk, you know. I'm sure your family will have opinions." He warned, most likely unnecessarily.
