Rachel was at the well watering her father's flock when a man caught her eye. Looking up she wondered who he was. She knew she had never laid eyes on him, and yet he looked familiar.

The strange man walked over to some of the other shepards. As he moved his head in conversation Rachel caught a better glimpse of his face. He was barely a man at all, Rachel thought to herself. She noted his face looked young containing none of the hardness of age. If she guessed right he was about her age, 16 or 17.

As the handsome stranger talked to the other men Rachel tried to listen in. She caught a few snaches of the conversation. But she heard no more when she over heard the man ask about her father. As several other shepards pointed out Rachel to the man she blushed and turned away. "How queer." she thought. "Why is this man looking for my family?"

"And why," she thought "am I blushing? I don't even know him, yet I feel...drawn to him somehow. Oh, I must shake this feeling. Mother would find it terribly improper."

"Since when do I care what she says? Oh, I feel so confused and mixed up." Rachel sighed softly to herself.
 
Jacob's body was getting so tired he thought he coulden't walk another step. Exhaustion overwhelmed his body as he came upon a hilly pasture. Sitting in the center of the field was a gigantic well. Shepards sat around casually chatting while their sheep lazily grazed and watered.

Standing to the side was a girl. "She's beautiful!" Jacob thought. "Maybe mother was right about the girls of Haran. Maybe it is time for me to start thinking about settling down."

Sauntering over the the male shepards Jacob admired the gorgeous girl's long wavy brown hair. Blonde highlights shone in the sun, he assumed from being outdoors every day. Her blue eyes, blue as the sky on a fair summer's day glanced up at him. On seeing Jacob return her stare the girl, blushing quickly turned her head from his view.
