Now we‘re friends for life‹, says Zaki. But Ummi doesn‘t know if that‘s what she wants. Because Zaki may be a great dreamer, but he‘s short, hairy and ugly. When the two of them get into great danger, they have to find out what kind of bond really connects them. A short story about courage, tolerance and friendship at second sight.
