Noora Alsuwaidi (goodreadscomnoora_alsuwaidi) | 3 comments Fahad walked with trembling knees, and a pounding heart to the ‎traditional diving ship as his grandfather asked him to do. It wasn’t his first ‎mission looking for pearls with his cousins, but he dropped the diving idea ‎two years ago, and he doesn’t want to be part of this old tradition again.‎
Being the great-grandson of a pearl diver, he used to hear a lot from his ‎grandfather about the pearl diving in the Arabian Gulf, the job that ended ‎decades ago after the discovery of the oil. His family is attached to the past ‎teaching every son and grandson the diving skill. He was one of them until ‎he heard a story that killed his passion for diving forever.‎
Fahad thought about retreating and accepting his new title as a chicken ‎instead of getting aboard, but his cousins pushed him forward, almost ‎dropping him on the ship’s deck. He balanced himself, held his ‎sports bag tightly, and sat at the center of the back as far away from the sea ‎waves as possible.‎
When the ship’s captain ordered the older boys to help raise the anchor, ‎Fahad was only thinking of the big mistake he has done while untying the ‎ship’s sails with four lads as the captain forced him to do.‎
‎“No one is allowed to be lazy, boys,” yelled the ship’s captain.‎
“I’ll figure a way not to participate, captain!” He thought. “Sorry, grandpa, I’ll have to ‎let you down.‎“

Discover the reason behind Fahad’s hesitation and fear from the sea even though he is a skilled and brave young diver in this new of its kind adventure.
Will these overpowering feelings stop Fahad from continuing his passion forever, or will there be a change in Fahad’s heart for the better? Will this young man regain his confidence and courage back?
In a short story that combines both of the beauty of the past and the wonders of our modern life, the reader will live a beautiful and exciting adventure with three passionate divers from Qatar: Fahad, Salim, and Jassim. Along with their whole big family that takes the passion for diving and sailing the sea to the next level.
