On their way to home Fatima was kept silence. She was looking at him all way long. He was handsome, 1.90m of tall, blond with blue eyes. Looking into his eyes she could see herself. These blue eyes were sparkling with love.
He parked his car near her house. It was evening and getting dark. They couldn’t enter the house together, neighbors could see them. She entered first and he followed her. She was living on the 8th floor and they decided not to use the elevator. Such way they kidnapped extra minuets from the day. The fifth floor was dark and suddenly he held his arms round her waist and kissed her.…
She knocked the door and it was opened by her mother. Fatima greeted her, but could not look into her eyes. She was upset and said she wanted to sleep as she had got tired at work. Unfortunately Fatima couldn’t sleep all night, she was crying bitterly.
-Fatima, Fatima!! Are you crying? –asked her sister from her bed.
-No!!-she answered furiously.
Zeynab stood up, took her blanket away.
-What happened? You are crying!!-she asked.But there was no reply.-You are stupid-she continued- Whom are you crying for?!For Hassan?! Don’t be stupid! Ok, he loves you, but he doesn’t know what the ‘family’ means. God knows where is his father now in Russia, while everybody knows what his mother is doing while her husband is away. His sister divorced after 6 months. That will happen to you .Mom will never let you to marry. And if you don’t marry, why should you waste your time with him ?
-Don’t teach me what to do.-she yelled-Look at yourself! You spent 10 years with Karim and what happened? Now he’s marrying a girl chosen by his mother!!
Fatima saw, Zeynab got red.She broke her hearth, made her sad but Zeynab continued:
-I don’t want you to make a mistake that I did.
-Sorry Zeynab. I know, I’m crying because I’ve decided to break up. I’ll let him know in the morning.- she said in tears.
Now Zeynab was sitting by her consoling her. Zeynab, egoistic enough and rude in times, never sharing her tastes, never respecting her ideas was sad for her.
He asked her why was she acting like that.But how could Fatima say the reason she had?! She told him that her mother was against their relationship and they will never be able to marry.He told they could run away and marry.But she had her dreams to leave her father’s house dressed in white. Fatima said, she didn’t want. He became furious. If she loved him , she would have chosen him.He was upset with the idea that she didn’t love him . “Ok, Fatima, ok!” he said and finished their conversation and gone away angrily.
She turned her mobile phone off and stayed at home during a week .A week later Fatima met Hussein, a friend of her at whose birthday party they met first. Hussein looked at sadly and said
-Hassan has engaged with Zuleykha, Arif’s sister. You should remember him, that guy who is lame.
She was shocked, Hassan needed a week to get engaged to another one. Fatima’s heart was beating so fast.When she came home it was late but she had no idea of time, she walked several hours in tears .
Now she was standing at the door and knocked the door.
-Where were you? I know whom you are spending your time.You don’t respect us.
-It’s over Mom, it’s all over a week ago!!
-Have you broken up?
-Yes, now you should be happy!
-Don’t do it.I know all about his mother, but he’s a good guy indeed. He has a separate apartment, even two cars and a good job.
Fatima can’t belive to the words said. Her mother , showing her protest every day was ensuring her not to break up.That was a real pain.She couln’t find words to say
-It’s too late Mom, it’s too late…
The end.
