Part 2 Chapter 1
External narrator
Khalil had just put his wife out of his house but could he put her out of his heart, no matter how much he struggles, no matter how hard he tries, he can't get her out of his head or out of his heart , this woman he thought was his soul mate had just betrayed him, the one for whom he had decided to change to become a better man had just planted a knife in his back, not with anyone but this man for whom he had the lowest possible esteem in the world
Most people would say he overdid it but who could keep his cool seeing the person his heart beats for kissing another, that body that was only meant to be his, that body he considered to be a temple had just been desecrated by a common fool, how is he going to get by alone now without his better half?
He starts by drinking to drown his pain and try to forget his current situation but nothing is strong enough to make him forget this pain he felt deep in his heart, the only way for him to have less pain. was to rip out this heart whose slightest beat made him think of this woman who had just betrayed him
Yemi opening the door with a bang: where is he? where is this idiot?
Adja coming to meet him: calm down please, despite everything he suffers a lot from this situation too
Yemi: how could you let this happen, how could you let him kick his wife out?
Adja: I tried to reason with him as best I could but he was in no condition to listen to me, he was simply in no condition to listen to anyone, I tried to contact you in vain
Yemi: where is he?
He's locked himself in his office since morning, he doesn't open to anyone
She walks to the office door, she was so pissed that when she arrives and knocks on the door without answer she asks that we bring her the duplicate keys of the office, the cleaning ladies executed and a few minutes more late she opened the door
When she enters the office she was shocked to see the state her son was in, this son who had been making progress for a while has just relapsed into alcohol
Yemi: have you started drinking again? you forget that God forbids us that?
Khalil with a nervous laugh: where was this God when this little bitch was cheating on me?
Yemi slapped her son so hard that the noise scared her herself.
Staggering Khalil: so you dare raise your hand on me for an unfaithful wife??
Yemi: I'll give you another one if you don't learn to talk about your wife better
Khalil: I don't have a wife, from today she no longer exists for me, so I don't want anyone to say her name in this house
Despite these words she approaches him and takes him in her arms and hugs him very hard against her
Yemi: I know you are in pain
Khalil abandoning himself in his mother's arms: she betrayed me mother, she planted a hillside in my heart, it really hurts
Yemi: I know my son, let yourself go
When he regained his composure, his mother began by talking to him to bring him to his senses.
Yemi: my son you have to go find your wife and bring her back here, you don't know all the turning points in the story so please try to calm down and do things right
Khalil: mother I'm not blind I saw them kissing, there's nothing more to do I don't want her as a woman anymore, I repudiated her, I don't want to hear about her anymore this milking
Yemi: how could you do such a thing, I want to inform you that I do not agree with you, I want you to go get her and bring her back here as soon as possible
Khalil: I have no orders to take from anyone, this woman I will never go with her again
Yemi getting up: I wonder how I could manage to give birth to such a moron, you are too stubborn and you risk regretting it bitterly
Khalil: you have to believe that the apple never falls far from the tree, I look a lot like my dear father you have to believe
Yemi: you're really an ass, stay there to get drunk and don't go find your wife, I hope you won't come running in my skirts when you're looking for someone to go and beg her to come back
Khalil: It's not likely to happen...
On these words of her son she comes out to discourage her, certainly she hurt for her son but she also hurt for this woman she loves as if she had carried him, she was really sad that this marriage stops like that and intends to make sure that things go back to normal, it was out of the question for her to consider a divorce
A little later in the same city….
Mariam was sitting on the bed thinking back to the scene that just happened, she was wondering how she could bear such a fool for the past few years and is really starting to be exhausted
Flashback
Gustave: how dare you serve me such a hot soup?
Mariam: I'm still not going to serve you a cold soup, it should be drunk hot
She did not have time to finish her sentence when her husband slaps her which puts her on the ground and makes her see the stars pass in the sky
Gustave: how dare you respond when I speak? Since when did you think you had this right?
Mariam: you are just an animal
Gustave: Really?
He spills the hot soup on her before even finishing her sentence, she was screaming in pain on the ground but he had no mercy for her, he was not even touched to see her crying in pain on the ground
Gustave: let me tell you that this chair is more valuable than you in this house, at least I paid for it because I liked it but you I had to buy you so that your fool could mother, leave me alone, so when i'm talking shut that dirty mouth, at least try to copy on this chair
Mariam: you are a real monster you know? release me if i disgust you so much
Gustave bursting out laughing: do you dream of freeing yourself? I bought you and you're mine forever, you'll walk out of this house with your feet first, you'll be my slave forever, filthy filthy woman
Mariam screaming: I hate you, I hate you so much if you only knew
Gustave with a high-pitched laugh: I don't care about your feelings and you know it, get up and clean the floor for me before I make you lick the floor
She stays on the ground there and cries a lot before deciding to get up to clean the soup on the ground, she wonders how she manages to support this Animals, every time she decides to leave she always ends up change decisions, is it out of love or out of fear she will not be able to say it more clearly
End of flashback
But how can anyone be in love with such a despicable person? she also knew that wherever she goes he will find her and punish her in the worst possible way, the one time she chose to run away she almost died as he beat her to death so that she doesn't faint he knows where to knock so that no one knows what she is living between these four golden walls, he makes sure never to leave a visible trace
