Ayub: Mama?
Me: Yes Ayub?
Ayub: I want a sword.
Me: No. I’m not getting you a sword.
Ayub: But I want a sword.
Me: You’ll end up hitting Sulaiman.
Ayub: But I want a sword.
Me: No. It’s dangerous.
Ayub pauses.
Ayub: Mama?
Me: Is this about the sword?
Ayub: Yes.
Me: Why do you need a sword?
Ayub: To kill zombies.
