External narrator
Nabila is going to visit her aunt this evening with Mayer as she had asked her to, she preferred to go alone because she does not want to involve her husband in his family problems
When she arrives she sees her aunt who was sitting in the living room lost in her thoughts she did not even hear them come in
Nabila: hello aunt
Yasmine returning to earth: hello my darling
She turns to Mayer who runs in her arms, she takes her baby whom she puts on her knees before turning to Nabila
Yasmine: I hope things are going much better between you and your husband
Nabila smiling ear to ear: Alhamdoulilla my aunt is better
Yasmine smiling: I believe you, this smile is that of a happy woman
Nabila: were you able to talk to my uncle about the problem?
Yasmine: yes I told him about it, it was not easy, it was hot here, he put everything on my head, that it was me I educated him badly, it was me I was responsible of everything that happens in him moreover his family they are smarter than his
Nabila: he did not really show this intelligence when sheriff came to visit you last time
Yasmine: I go back even further, if someone has to take the blame it would be him not me since he was the one who covered up all his nonsense and didn't want me to scold her when she needed nonsense but today, since it's not going well, it became my daughter and it was me who raised her badly
Nabila: don't get upset my aunt you know my uncle well, where is Malika?
Yasmine: she is in her room
She calls her daughter who joins them in the living room, Malika was so embarrassed and did not know how to behave, she ended up sitting alone on a sofa and keeping her head down
Nabila: Khalil learned that Sharif had returned to Dubai so he contacted a collaborator of his who had also wanted to get his hands on him for a while, he told him what he had done here before fleeing, in the evening he contacted us to let us know that he had found him
Malika: anyway I want nothing more to do with him
Me: by the way, when the Cheick caught her, he wanted to be as fair as possible to his baby that he had fathered here, he wanted to give him the possibility of assuming his paternity and marrying you at the same time, but he refused, he no longer wanted to come back here so the Cheick decided to send him to a village where he will work as a farmer, he will pay you three quarters of his salary, he will work there until your child is born. is 18, only then can he leave
Malika: I don't want anything from him, my child and I don't need anything from him
Nabila: he owes you at least that, you didn't make this baby alone, if he doesn't want to be present for this baby, he must at least contribute to the care of the child, if you you don't want his money think about your baby you can create an account for him and when he enters adulthood he can process this money
Yasmine speaking: she's right Malika, this child is just as responsible for it as you are, you don't have to take it on yourself
She was skeptical but ended up resigning herself, she was also very happy that Chérif was forced to work on a farm, she would have liked to see him pick up animal shit, he who thought he was so much the master of the world, he who spent his lived in the most luxurious hotels and drove the most beautiful cars, cherif the bourgeois who becomes cherif the farmer, she was internally jubilant about what was happening to him, he was going to spend 18 years of his life with the people they despised the most in the world, the poor...
In the last few days she made a decision that she wanted everyone to know, it was high time she took her life back, she really owed it to her child
Malika: I want to resume my studies where I left off, I want to fight for my child, I want to find myself a good job and offer him a stable life far from need
Yasmine: I think that somehow what is happening to you is a good thing for you, it allowed you to mature and change, this child will make you a new person
Malka: Insha'Allah mom
Yasmine: What scares me is will your father agree to pay your tuition fees?
Nabila: there's no problem with that, I can take care of it, if you don't mind of course
After the sentence of her cousin Malika bursts into tears, no one knew why she was crying suddenly Nabila gets up takes her in her arms until she stops crying
Malika: I'm so sorry for the way I treated you last time, you wanted my good but instead of listening to you I spoke badly to you
Nabila: don't worry, it's already forgotten
Yasmin: what are you talking about?
Nabila: nothing important my aunt…
She stays there chatting a little with her aunt and her cousin before hitting the road, Mayer is going to sleep at her grandmother's, she was relieved that things are back to normal, Mayer can come and spend some time with her grandmother no problem
When she was returning home, she received the call from Akim who asked after Mariam, she had the wonderful idea of inviting him to her home so that he could greet her himself
They find themselves in front of her door and they go back together in the house, when they cross the threshold of the living room the first person she sees was Khalil, when she sees his look she knew he was angry at the simple fact to see them together
Khalil told himself that he had managed to be forgiven by his darling so he does not understand why she is coming back here with this man, this man who was obviously courting her, he did not understand the meaning of what she was doing
Akim: good evening
Khalil looking him straight in the eyes: good evening
He stands there detailing it for a moment and disappears down the hall, she knew her husband was pissed off, he was so pissed off that he paid no attention to her before he left, she had left a caring and loving man for she has the house before going to see her aunt, she does not intend to let a simple misunderstanding ruin everything, she asks Akim to settle down and leaves to join her husband
She looks in her room but he wasn't there, she thinks he must be in her office but he wasn't there either, she then goes down to the basement where she finds her husband in the bathroom. sport that was banging in the punching bag, he was either so focused that he didn't notice his entrance or he was deliberately ignoring him
Nabila: my heart…
He does not answer her, she calls him again but he was completely ignoring her, she walks towards her and hugs her from behind, she feels her man stiffen but that does not discourage her
Khalil: what are you doing?
Nabila: I needed you to stop for a moment
Khalil: why do you want me to stop? Am I not allowed to exercise?
Nabila: don't tell me that you now do the exercises in your shirt
Khalil: I didn't know that I had to follow a specific style of clothing in my own gym
She knew she would never win like her against him, she comes to stand in front of him, she stands on her tiptoes before placing a kiss on his lips, she knew it was not fair but it it was the only way she had found to calm him down and obviously it had worked
Nabila: are you mad at me?
Kahlil: no...
Nabila: I thought you had to work on yourself, try to be less jealous and trust me
Khalil: I know but don't exaggerate either, if I brought one of my pretenders here how would you react?
Nabila: what? I kill you
Khalil: Well, don't ask me to act like nothing has happened and sit down and chat with you when he also wants to have my wife, my wife!
Nabila giggling: what if I told you that he didn't want your wife?
Khalil: I saw you last, the way you smiled at him and everything, he didn't take his eyes off you either...
Nabila: it was just to make you jealous, he doesn't want me, he's madly in love with Mariam and was never able to confess his feelings to her because she was a married woman, right now I'm trying to playing cupid
Kahlil: …
Nabila: I promise you that I forgot to tell you about it, will you forgive me?
Kahlil: …
Nabila: don't you think you're doing too much there? I'm sorry…
Khalil giggling: if you could see your face...
Nabila: do you find yourself funny there?
Khalil: Well it was your punishment, you made me want to hit the man who is about to become my brother-in-law
Nabila: waits for him to find the right time to tell her and for Mariam to be interested too, at the moment I'm not sure she wants to start another relationship
Khalil: he just has to be convincing enough, if you managed to fall in love with me, she can do it with him too
Nabila giggling: you're right you weren't easy to love, how about we go out to dinner together?
Khalil: in the middle of dinner we pretend something and we leave leaving them alone
Nabila: it looks like you read my mind that's exactly what I was thinking
Khalil pulls his wife towards him and kisses her full on the mouth, he was really relieved that Akim was rather interested in Mariam not his wife
Khalil: what if we inaugurated this room?
Nabila: no, you're full of sweat and we have to get ready to go to dinner, we don't have time to waste
Khalil: you are not going to leave me there, I have just found my wife, I still have the right to take advantage of it, right?
Nabila: it won't be for now anyway my heart, you should go take a shower
She goes out and leaves him there with his erection, when she arrives in the living room, she notices Mariam and Akim discussing
Nabila: I hope I'm not bothering you
Mariam: you left your guest alone to go smooch with your husband
Akim: her husband was not at all happy to see me here
Nabila giggling: it's because my plan last time worked too well, I just defused the bomb
Akim: still happy, I don't want to have to fight with him
Nabila: lol!! my darling, how about we go out to dinner together tonight?
Mariam: no thank you I don't want to hold the candle, I prefer to sit in front of the TV
Nabila: Akim I hope you are free tonight, you will save Mariam from holding the candle
Akim: of course I have my evening, it will be a pleasure for me
Nabila: deal done, we're getting ready and we'll join you, I'll send Khalil to hold you Compagni
Akim: ok
She pulls Mariam with her, she leaves to get ready in spite of herself, she tells herself that it will be a way for her to think of something else
When Nabila returns to her husband's room, he had already taken his shower and was getting dressed, he was so handsome, she would have liked to spend the evening with him in their room but she will have to postpone her for a few hours.
Nabila: Sweetheart, would you like to hold Compagni to Akim while we get ready?
Khalil: no problem
Nabila wanted to go back to her room but he grabs her by the waist
Khalil: what if I accompanied you in the shower?
Nabila: no way, hurry up, Akim must surely be waiting for you at the salon
He ends up letting her go after a long kiss, he was really looking forward to these few hours at the restaurant passing quickly so that he could go home with his wife
