Let's meet our friends Abdi.
(Abdi trudges on stage looking tired)
And now meet our friend Alfie!
(Alfie comes on energetically)
It might be the last day of Ramadhan and Abdi is fasting.
Narrator 1
Yes Abdi is fasting today! He didn't wake up to eat the early breakfast today at sunrise and is a bit grumpy!
Alfie
Hey Abdi! Let's play food riddles!
Abdi
No!
Alfie
Guess what I am describing?
I am thinking of a treat
Mostly brown, and delightfully sweet!
Abdi
Yes! A chocolate! Aaaah! That is the first thing I will have at sunset! A creamy chocolate!
Alfie
Ok! Try this one!
Ketchup or not, I am a wonder on the lip,
I am cut into strips, I am a potato ______ !
Abdi
Chip! Chip! Oh I love chips!
With ketchup!! Right that is what I will have at sunset!
Alfi
Last one! Try this.
Although it is cold, it's an old time wonder
Creamy and sweet and great in the summer!
Abdi
An ice cream! Yes I will definitely have an ice cream at sunset!
Alfie
Uuuh? (Opens up a bag of crisps and offers them to Abdi)
What are you going on about? At sunset?
Abdi
Be gone! Be gone!
(Storms off)
Alfie
Ok! Don't 'ave any then! Who rocked your boat!
(Widens eyes and puts his hands on his face in as he realises! Gasps)
Alfie
Oh! He was fasting! I forgot! I should have been a bit more thoughtful!
Abdi! Wait! I am so sorry! (Goes after Abdi)
