     Jack sits in the coffee bar that looks at Jaffa Street listening to the sad, sad music playing on an old
tape recorder. "Oum Khalsoum", says one of the other men sitting in the coffee bar to nobody in
particular. "This is Oum Khalsoum singing".
Jack takes another sip of sweet mint(薄荷) tea and nods in agreement without saying anything. His uncle
lives in Egypt, and every time he visits him, he tells him the story of how he saw the well-known singer at
one of her concerts in Cairo in 1970, not long before she died. The song seems to go on forever, and it's
very sad. He thinks it's beautiful, but he doesn't want to hear it now. It's too sad for him. It makes him
think of his uncle in Egypt who he hasn't seen for many years now, and also about the reason why his
uncle lives in Egypt while his aunt lived in Lebanon and why he, on the other hand, lives in Jordan, and
why he is in Jerusalem now.
     His father died a few months ago. After that, he found that there were so many things that he had
wanted to ask his father, but had never asked . He realized that he knew very little about his own family,
and decided to try and find out more about the place where his father had grown up, and where his
grandparents (who had died when he was very young) were from.
     He has now spent a couple of days wandering around Jerusalem with an old, torn photograph in his
hand. The photograph shows the whole family, his grandparents standing proudly at the centre of a
group of four children in front of a house on a busy street. Next to the house there seems to be a garden
with what look like olive (橄榄色) trees in it.
     Jack, though, can't find anywhere in this modern Jerusalem that looks much like the street or the
house where the photograph was taken. He feels sadder than the sad song playing in the cafe, thinking
now that he might never find the place where his father had been born and the place where his
grandparents had lived until they moved away in 1947.
