" How can I help you, pasha?" " I want Rabab" "Wasn't she with you at noon?" " You miss her already?" " You know everything" "Pasha, in my field you must know every single detail" "Rabab robbed me" "You deserve it, you caused it" "Pasha, you fooled me, the owner of the place and the customers" "This is a decent place we only serve drinks, nothing else" "We are respectful people and that's why I fired Rabab" "And you're fired too" "And I don't want to see you even walking by the place" "Do you want to get out walking or carried, Romeo?" "Get up!" "Get up and leave before I humiliate you in front of the bar's costumers" "How didn't I see that?" "How didn't I see that you are a pimp?" " Good evening" " Good evening" " How can I get to Hoda Cha'rawi street?" " I don't know" " Are you a stranger to the neighborhood?"

"Good evening, Dawlat" "Good evening, Dawlat?" "What is the matter?" "You think you're living in a hotel or something?" " Wait here and talk to me" " What, Dawlat?" "Do you know what time is it?" "I've been sitting there for four hours waiting and worried about you" "You think I'm a child?" "Should I worry about you or about the diseases I have?" " Dawlat, I'm tired and want to rest" " Tired?" "Of what?" "Running after the promiscuous women in the street and dirty bars?" "Take your age into consideration you shameless man" "You're a very old man, Zaki" "Think of God in your last days and you'd be crazy, Zaki to think that a woman would even look at you you shameless, impudent and insolent" "Open the door or I'll smash it you ruined your life and spent your father's money" "Open the door I want my diamond ring" " Why are you standing outside this early?" " I was waiting for you" "I was wrong, Taha but you must excuse me" "Live is confusing me and sometimes I don't know what I'm saying" " Give me the ring" " No" "Give me the ring I'm telling you, I know you have it" "Give it to me, don't act as if you are Abd el-Halim Hafiz, give it to me" "What can I do with a crazy girl like you?" "I must be patient but the waiting is almost over" " Did you see yourself in the mirror?" " Barely" "You look so handsome" " Wish me luck today" " You'll be lucky, God willing" "You already look like a police officer and I swear you seem better from them officers" "Almost, I'm going early to take the bus before it becomes crowded because the crowd would ruin the suit" "No, you must take a taxi and sit well for you to be relaxed" "And say the prayer I'll tell you before the examination committee" "God, make my word the right one and their work the wrong one" "And don't forget the two other prayers, okay?" " God be with you, bye" " Bye" "Come in, Haji, come in" "Listen, Haji Azam, the ministers and such open new establishment please sit down, Haji" "As for me, due to God you and those like you" "I became a big establishment" "But I said to myself that Haji Mohamed Azam should bless it himself" "You're so precious to me, Zaatar and I'm happy for you, not just me, my sons too" "May God give you more and more" " What can I get you, Haji?" " There's nothing but coffee" "What coffee, Haji Azam?" "We can drink that latter" " Suad?" " Yes, Mr. Salim" " One juice for Haji Azam" " Yes" " Bring it yourself, Suad" " Yes M. Salim" "My God!" "Is this your daughter, Zaatar?" "Daughter, Haji?" "She works here in the establishment" "My daughter is still young" " My God, it's your secretary then?" " Haji, I don't have a secretary" "Mrs. Suad is smart, intelligent and nice" " She's a Mrs?" " And has a 6 or 7 years old boy" "Her husband went to work in Iraq" " And he died there" " God bless his soul" "As to how he died?" "God knows" " Here you are, Haji Azam" " Thank you very much, dear" "I'll go make you a cup of coffee" " With not much sugar please" " As you wish" "What is the matter, Haji?" "Actually, some faces are beautiful and they make feel comfortable" "She seems decent" "You have a very high average, Taha, 89% why did you choose the Police Academy?" " I want to serve my country, sir" " But the engineer can also serve his country" "Of course, sir, but if everyone serves his country in the field he likes" " The service would be better" " Great and what do you think the elements that a police officer must have?" "The discipline, the justice spirit, firmness, honor" "And most importantly he must be human in all his actions" " What does your father do, Taha?" " He's an employee, sir" "An employee or a building guard?" " Sir, the building guard is also an employee" " Thank you, dismissed, next" " Where were you?" " I was with Mr. Talal in the depot" " What were you doing?" " He was making an inventory of the goods" "He was checking in order to buy what we lack" "Then, why everyone is looking at both of you like this?" "Please, everybody knows we were messing around in the depot" "Don't worry and don't blush, we were messing around above the clothes" " Above the clothes?" " Yeah, above the clothes" "He approaches me and rubs until he trembles and shivers and that's all, and he's so arrogant and anyway, he pays 10 pounds, is that bad?" "We are all the same here and your turn will come" "I don't know why everyone doesn't want to look for her interest" "Saddam Hussein killed a lot of Egyptians and he might have killed the husband of this nice employee" " I don't like to discuss this matter with her" " Why didn't she get married?" "Who's gonna marry a poor lady with a child and who gets merely enough to live?" "Moreover, there are more and more women" "Who would marry a woman with a business degree with a child?" "Me" "Yes, but she's very normal, Haji she's nothing compared to you" " Your status is higher" " Listen, Zaatar, I fear God and honestly I need a woman to sleep with" "And not one that I would inherit or take her salary at the end of the month" "In this case, she's so lucky" "But I have some conditions, if she accepts them, we'll get married immediately" "You lost my diamond ring you liar, you drunk and then you lie to me and say you did go to the jeweler" " Respect yourself, Dawlat" " Who should respect himself, scam?" "Where's the ring?" "To which prostitute did you give it?" "You humiliate the biggest family in the Egypt get out of my house!" "Your house, Dawlat?" "This is my house, the house of Dusuki Pasha" "Dusuki whose name you've sullied" "You're worst than me at least I did it outside the family house" "But you did it here" "The number of men that entered this apartment to sleep with you is bigger than the members of former and new Wafd Party" "You lost your mind and you shouldn't be here you should be in an asylum" "If that was where I should be where should you be?" "Huh?" "In the dirty bars of course, sitting with the bad people of which you've became" "In the streets!" "Get out to the streets!" "Go run after the women!" " Get out of my house!" " Your house again?" "I'm the owner of this house and you are the guest" "But you are bad and ugly one" " I can't stand you anymore, Dawlat" " Neither do I..." "Come on, get out!" "Get out!" "I wouldn't be Dawlat the daughter of Dusuki Pasha if I don't humiliate you in front of all the building" "Go, go" "What, guys?" "It's nothing, just a fight between a brother and his sister" "And you know Dawlat, she's crazy" "When he holds me in his arms he talks to me calmly" "I see life as a bed of roses" "He says some love words some everyday words and this makes me feel something" "He gives my heart a share of happiness which I know the source" "This is him for me and me for him in life" "He told me I'll have that for life" "When he holds me in his arms he talks to me calmly" "I see life as a bed of roses" "He says some love words some everyday words and this makes me feel something" "He gives my heart a share of happiness which I know the source" "This is him for me and me for him in life" "He told me I'll have that for life" "When he takes me in his arms..." "Christine, my love" "You're the most precious thing in my life" "Zaki, you're not ok, what is it?" "You've always knew what I have without me telling you" "You're like an open TV with a disturbing series" "There's disturbance but without a series" "Our fate is sealed as you used to say come on, let's sit down" "I had a fight with Dawlat" "This isn't something new you've always been like this" " She threw me out" " She's crazy but she has a good heart" "Did you do something big this time?" "I lost her ring and I'm ready to buy her a better one" "Zaki, no, this is a disgrace a woman can forget her lover, her husband her father, but never her jewelry, never" "What if I tell you Christine that Dawlat has been planning for a long time to throw me out?" " What is she going to do?" " She'll take it" " And then?" " She'll give it to her children" "If I died, Dawlat will take everything, she's my only heir" "She's older than you and she might die before you and you would inherit her" "Then, their children would inherit her share I don't know why she is doing this" "I don't think this, Zaki she must have calm down now and I'll call her and everything will be fine" "Don't bother, I know her" "A black label bottle, you're wrong?" "Anyway, I'll call her" "Enough Mrs. Christine, it's over" "Whatever you say won't change anything" "Yes, dear, but this is his house just as it is yours" "No, no, no, Mrs. You must understand something" "Zaki won't enter this apartment again as long as I'm alive and even after my death" " Calm down and listen to me" " I don't want to hear anything" " Please, for me" " What?" "Who are you in the first place?" "Who do you think you are?" "You're just one of his women" "Don't think that you are the head of the UNRWA?" "What UNRWA?" "I'm Christine watch the way you're talking" "No, no, no, listen, instead of wasting your time with me, go see your clients" "Go, go, go, someone might mind something, go" " Zaki, you won" " Didn't I tell you?" "I thought she was only crazy but she's also a promiscuous woman and I hope she dies before you" "Welcome, welcome welcome Mr. Hatim, welcome" "You look nice, welcome" "Aziz, let them bring us all that you think is nice" " What will you drink, Mr. Hatim?" " Whiskey" " And your friend?" " Whiskey also, this is my friend Abd Rabu" " Welcome, Mr. Abd Rabu" " Thanks, sir" " Welcome" " Please, Aziz" " Send me the shots immediately" " At your service" "Come on, let's eat together, Abd Rabu" " Eat and drink" " This wasn't necessary, sir" "I want you to be happy, Abdo" " Very happy" " God bless you, sir" "Drink" " It's not sweet but tasty" " Lovely, sir" "You know, Abdo after the second drink you feel you want to do tasty things" " Very lovely thing, the best in life" " I know what you mean" "But my wife is there in the countryside" "Must that be necessarily with your wife?" "By the way, most of the women aren't so tasty" " Take off your hand, sir!" " Calm down" "Calm down, Abdo people are staring at us" "Stay normal, stay normal and that's it" "Abd Rabu?" "Abd Rabu?" " What?" "!" " You lost your mind?" "You want a scandal?" "You know that I can hurt you but I don't like to hurt anybody" "Can you tell where are you going now?" "I'll leave" "Sir, what you're asking is wrong and shameful and is against the law of God" "Okay, enough, enough come and sleep over tonight and you'll leave tomorrow" "Come on" "What is the matter of this building inhabitants?" "No principles and no responsibilities!" "Why doesn't everybody make sure that they've closed the elevator's door behind them?" "This is awful" "Hi Mr. Hatim, the inhabitants are impossible" "One of them used the elevator and left the door open" "Who is this?" "Zaki Pasha, the negligence became a normal thing" " Yes, I know, who is this?" " No, he's with me" "With you, with you honestly, he seems firm" "Why don't you go upstairs and get me the elevator down?" " When Mr. Hatim asks me to do it" " When Mr. Hatim asks" "Ask him, Mr. Hatim to get the elevator down" "Don't worry, nothing will happen to him, he'll get up as he'll get down" " Enough, Pasha, go get it, Abd Rabu" " Go, Abd Rabu" "Did you see him?" "He went at full speed and made a sprint" "He's a tiger, really, he's firm, yeah..." "You are a good person and deserve all the best" "Have a nice night, Mr. Hatim" "This is the night, it's nice for some people and disturbed for others" "Get in, get in, are you shy or what?" "Sir, is this a real Pasha or it's just a nickname?" "No, no, his father was the real pasha and a minister for 2 or 3 times in the past" " What does he do then?" " Nothing" "He lives from some properties inherited from his father, he was a loser all his life" "He's a stupid guy just as you've seen him" "Bad, drunk and philander" "He's not bad but worst than that" "Okay, be comfortable I won't be late" " Come in, come..." " Thank you, sir" "You can't sleep in your clothes, here, take" "I'm not used to sleep early at all but if you want to sleep, go ahead there's a room inside by the way" "Don't worry, after you go to sleep I'll sleep here on the floor" "I'm used to this" " Drink, Abdo" " What is this?" "Karkari?" "What?" "Karkari?" "Taste it and you'll know" "It's not karkari but it has the same color" "Listen, you told me that you've got another two months and you'll end your service, no?" "True, sir" " What will you do afterwards?" " I'll get back to my hometown" "This is the first I met someone who came to Cairo and then got back to its hometown" "What should I do, sir?" "In order to find a job here, I need a high recommendation" " I can do that for you, Abdo" " God bless you, sir" "As I told you, I live alone as you see" "Abdo, I dedicated myself to help others but to whom?" "Who deserves that?" "Drink" "Drink" "Do you want to watch something nice on TV?" "Something special" "The TV at night is dirty" "so nice" " My God, what is this?" " So dirty, huh?" "Really" "Abdo, you told me that you are married, no?" " Abdo?" " Yes, I'm married" "But my wife is simple and not like this" " You sleep with her?" " This embarrassing, sir" "No embarrassment, huh?" "When I have a day-off I sleep with her 2 or 3 times a day" " Until I have to leave - 2 or 3 times a day?" "And you're saying she's simple?" "You're a slanderer" "Honestly, sir, sometimes she refuses or she's tired but I force her" "Thank you" " Thank you" " Thank you" "Tamer, you go inside and watch TV, come on, son" "This is a legal marriage by the law of God and his Prophet and nothing else" "We know that you are a believer and a good man" "Thank God" "Suad will live alone with me in the city and the kid will be here with you" "And when it's possible she'll come and see him" "Don't worry, I'll pay all his expenses" "Huh?" "What do you say, Suad?" "As you wish, Mr. Hamido" "Okay, the jewels will be at 10000 pounds the dowry, 20000 pounds, and the payment in case of divorce is 5000" "And I'll take her as she is" "My God, anything else, Haji?" "This marriage will remain a secret" "If my wife Fayqa knows I'll divorce you immediately" "And if someone else told her, what is my fault?" "No secrets get out of my house whatever gets in my house, never gets out" "Okay" "Any other demands, Haji?" "The most important one we both have kids thus no children or pregnancies and this is serious" " Let me hear a "yes"" " Yes of course, Haji" "Okay, one week to prepare the house and we'll get married and I'll take you with me then" "Let's hear a cheer" "Fanus!" "Fanus!" "Good morning, sir" " What are these suitcases?" " Your sister sent them" " I want a cup of coffee" " Yes" "Your sister changed the lock and fortified the door" "The guy who brought the suitcases said that" "Yeah, Dawlat, you are my sister things can't get to where they got, Dawlat..." " Why are sitting far away?" " I'm like you, my poverty is showing" "It's best to stay alone" "No, I was sitting with them but I didn't like what they were saying, so I left" " What were these people talking about?" " Their father and their mother..." "One's father is an under secretary the other's is a consular or engineer" "And one's mother is a specialist in the UN affairs" "Between us, I feared they'd ask me about my father" "That's why I came to sit with you" "By the way, what does your father do?" "He's a building guard a concierge and you?" "A shoemaker" "We have a small shop" "If they knew that the coordination office will put together the sons of a concierge and a shoemaker with the sons of the UN they would have blown the office" "Actually, one doesn't know how he'll live with these people" "Don't worry, we'll find people like us" " May God accept your prayer" " God willing" "God grant you the voice and the reverence" "Thanks God" "The reverence to God is the best gifts" "Tell me, you're in the Mosque very often?" " Whenever I can" " Thanks God" " What is your name?" " Taha el-Shazli" " You are a junior, brother Taha?" " Yes" "I'm Khalid Abd el-Rihim I'm in the third year" "And as you see, I'm from the countryside but it seems that you live in the city" " I live in Cairo here" " Good" " Where do you live, Taha?" " Downtown" " Then your family is from the high society" " Exactly" "Well, of course if you mean the roofs I live on the roofs of the downtown" "In general, those roofs are better than those of the suburbs" " Thank God for what you have" " Thanking God is inside my heart and soul and all the time in the good and bad times" "God the Merciful, you are lawful by nature, brother Taha" " Where do you pray on Friday?" " In a corner next to our building" "No, this is nonsense, the Friday prayer shouldn't be in the corner" "Moreover, praying in mosques whatever far they are has a big reward" "Tell me in what mosque do you pray even if it's very far away and I'll come to pray with you on Fridays, and at evenings and dawns" "Listen, brother Taha, your enthusiasm to perform your religious duties shows that you have a deep goodness and faith" "God will reward me for you and I'll guide you to the good, God willing" "I hope so" "I was late, no?" "No problem" "Come, come, don't worry" " Mr. Talal" " Yes?" "I needed 20 pounds, you can deduct them from my salary" "10 pounds are enough" "Stay here until you clothes dry and then follow me to the store" "Lock the door five time, huh?" "10 pounds, you jerk" "Here you are, sir" " What is this?" " The newspaper of Mr. Hatim Rachid he's sending us a copy now" "Put it right there and what is all this knocking up there?" "What is this mess?" "That Haji Muhammad Azam he's renovating his apartment" " I wish you talk to him" " To whom?" " Azam Pasha" " Azam Pasha" "Since when Azam is a pasha?" "I saw him myself polishing shoes in front of the Americans" "Is this possible, sir?" "He owns half of Seliman Pasha street" " You don't believe me?" " I believe you and everything" "But how can a shoe polisher get all these shops" " ...and properties and all this money?" " If I knew, I would have told you" "Then, you would have stopped working in houses and became like him" "You go tell him tell him that the pasha is asking you to stop the knocking" " And go see who is at the door" " Yes" "Azam Pasha" " Zaki Dusuki apartment?" " Zaki Pasha" "As you wish, Zaki Pasha..." "Actually, I'm a messenger and I have a notice for your pasha" "Do you want to receive it or let the pasha receive it?" "I became a stupid and crazy, Fanus" "Whoever says that about you is the stupid, silly and crazy one" "My sister Dawlat is suing me for being stupid and crazy" "Because she's your sister I can't say anything bad" "Dawlat is just a liar anymore she's a liar and she is crazy" "Aren't you scared walking by yourself?" " How are you, Taha?" " I'm fine" " What's wrong?" " Nothing, I'm just tired" "I was standing up all day" "I can't wait to get to the room to get to bed" "I just wanted to make sure you are ok" " Tell me about you, how is college?" " I feel I'm a stranger in it" "This country isn't ours anymore people like us are strangers" "You want to say something, Busayna?" "Listen to me, finish studying get a degree and go to the Gulf" " I can do that on one condition" " What?" "That you come with me" "We don't know what will happen in the future" "Busayna?" "I feel that your feelings have very much changed towards me" "I didn't change, Taha it's the world around us" "I can't even talk" "Hi" "What's the matter, love?" " Abdo what's wrong?" " I'm scared, sir" " Of what, Abdo?" " God" "Why would you be scared of God are you doing something wrong?" "All I'm doing is wrong" "Alcohol night and day and fornication with you" "I even neglected praying" "I've heard the Sheikh in the mosque talking about the suffering in hell of the perverts" "We're ruining the throne of the heavens and earth, it's quake, sir" "You're a narrow-minded man from the countryside" "Do you think that we're the only ones doing this?" "No, there are a lot of people like us" "Here, in Europe, in America and in the Gulf, in all the countries" "A quake?" "Where's the problem if a man loves another one?" "Where?" "God is so good and merciful" " And I want to reassure you" " How would you do that?" "Do you know what is really wrong and there's no doubt in that?" "Adultery" "Adultery, i.e. A man sleeping with a woman other than his wife and this is to forbid the mixing of the lineages" "I mean, she gets pregnant by her lover and gives the baby the name of her husband or she gets rid of the baby and this is very wrong of course" "However, where's the problem if a man loves another man?" "Where's the problem?" "Where's the problem?" "What do you mean?" "Men don't get pregnant, Abdo" "Take this dress and put it here be careful with the scissors" "Put this work down everything is good and you..." "Welcome, the most beautiful girl I've seen, how are you, Miss Busayna?" "What?" "No good evening?" "Good evening, uncle Malak?" " How are you, Mr. Malak?" " This is right" "I have a job for you that would make both of us rich" "What job?" "I want you to intercede with Talal to order shirts from me" "My work is the best and you'll get a commission" "What are you saying?" "Who am I to intercede with him?" "I'm just an insignificant seller" "Talking work wouldn't be mere talk, wait just a second" "This is a gift from me, it's your size" "I don't take gifts from strangers" "Why should I take a gift from you?" "The work that we'll have together..." "Forget it" "Talal only takes his goods from big shops" "If you talk to him, he'll listen to you" "And why is that?" "Miss Busayna, I've been working in this field since I was six" "And I've lived all my life here" "So, I know what Mr. Talal does and where and you have certainly an influence on him" "A young and very beautiful girl" " Talal will never refuse you a thing" " You lack decency and manners" "Does telling the truth lack decency?" "Look at me and tell me honestly, haven't you ever gone to see Talal in the depot?" " You're shameless and impudent" " So you've gone there" "We'll talk another time" "I..." "I won't take long I know you're a very busy man" "I can't refuse you a thing, Haji" "I don't want you to be upset of me but in the last two weeks" "I didn't have the time to see you, I swear" " I understand, sir" " What's the matter, Haji?" "I'm sure that you've asked about me when I demanded to meet you" "And I've know good things about you, you're a great man" "Thanks God..." "God grant me everything" "Listen, sir, I want to serve this country and the people of the region where I work and in which the people I grew up with and loved live" "We are all like you, Haji, but as they say "everyone has his own way"" "I prayed to God and decided to announce my candidacy to the parliament on the district of Qasr el-Nil" " Qasr el-Nil?" " Yes, my family and people" "Do you know what we call the district of Qasr el-Nil in the parliament, Haji?" " The piece of cake" " What do you mean?" "What would you understand?" "I'm telling you, it's a piece of cake which means something good" "No problems, no low income neighborhoods and nobody asks you for anything" "And the youth who wants an apartment or a job to the point where you would hate your life and cause you high blood pressure" " From where did you come, Haji?" " From the countryside" "We'll find a nice district in the countryside" "It's been a long time since I've went there and nobody knows me" " But Qasr el-Nil..." " Listen" "As for Qasr el-Nil, there's people who has already talked about it" "They have just talked about it and in this case, we can discuss this matter" " Let me think, Haji" " Sir, the earlier the better" " This is a rabbit (=1 million), no?" " But what you think about the drawing?" "It's so beautiful but it's a big amount of money" "This money isn't for me, Haji Azam, this money will be divided among different people" " As for me, I have enough" " I know, I know, sir" "I want to know who wanted the Qasr el-Nil district" " Who?" " Abu Rihab, you know him" "The owner of the shops "Grace and Light"" "Yeah" "But he works with the Muslim Brotherhood and you know that" "And excuse me, you don't have a good relation with the Brotherhood" "How would you agree on him?" "When he announces his candidacy nobody can stop him from doing that this is the democracy and we are in a democratic country" "Yeah, but if he announced it, he might win" "He owns the market and sells the goods at half or quarter their price and he has a lot of money." "Actually, he's capable of buying the votes" "The candidacy is easy" "Anyone who wants to announce his candidacy will do it and no one can stop him, but how would he win?" "This is our game, there's no forgery, God forbid, no" "But you can say that we know the mentality of the Egyptian people" "All the Egyptian people is holding to the government as if it's their mother even if it's not a such good one" " This is our job" " I know" "But this is the first business between us, Mr. Kamal" "Please, forget the million pounds, reduce the amount" "Listen, Haji, I can only draw two things:" "A rabbit or a turkey" "What do you say?" "I said "okay", give me your hand to read the "Fatiha"" "Wait, I want the money in cash here next week" "Congratulations, Haji" "Why is this wine white and the other one is red, Hatim?" "When you eat fish you drink white wine" " Then, the red wine is with the meat" " You are a smart guy, bravo" " What is the occasion of all this, Hatim?" " We're celebrating" "Celebrating what?" "Everyone who ends his military service gets back calmly to his town" "We're celebrating the separation" "In addition, the other surprise is that you won't return to your town" "How is that, Mr. Hatim?" "What about my son and my wife?" "They will come and live with you here" "I found you a place to live and it's in the same building" "There's a room on the roof that the owner left and went back to his hometown" "I rented it immediately for your wife and son" " Cheers" " What?" " Cheers" " Cheers" " Cheers, cheers" " Cheers, Hattum" "The matter isn't as you think, Zaki Pasha" "I mean that the cases between your sister and you won't end overnight" "She's suing you and this case might take years to be settled" "And you're suing her to prove your right in the apartment of Baydar" " And this might take as long as 1 or 2 years" " How is that possible, Mr. Fikri?" "Mrs. Christine, this is our country and we know it very well" " What can we do then?" " I'll tell you but don't say I did" "Vagrants, some vagrants who would break in the apartment by any means" "Breaking the door or wrecking a wall the important thing is that they occupy it and you can enter and live normally" "Of course, she won't accept that and would sue you and this will take a long time to be settled" "She might die before the sentence" " No other solution?" " This is the only solution" " I can't do something like this" " But your sister is wicked, she's very bad" "We are the children of Abd el-Aal Pasha and the sons of pashas don't do this to each other" " But you are a victim" " Even if I was" "Dawlat is my sister and I must be indulgent with her" "In general, I'm not sleeping on the streets" " Where's my coat?" " Where are you going, Zaki Pasha?" "Zaki!" "Zaki!" "I've never seen you like this" "And I've never seen you so negligent, what's wrong?" "Why didn't I get married?" "I might have had children, and of course the children would have changed my life" "You were in front of me but I was stupid" "Christine, I feared that if I married you I would cheat on you later" "I'm weak before any caprice" "And you would have hated me then and this was the one thing I couldn't stand" " No, I would have forgiven you" " You think that" "I had many beautiful things in front of me and I didn't see them or maybe it was too late" " I'm leaving" " I'll give you a lift" "I've never hurt anyone" "I've only hurt myself" "Even the women I've known were consenting" "They would enter my house and get out very pleased" "I think God will be indulgent with me" "He'll make me the highest discount ever, 20%, 30... 50%" "Make them 100%, you're the Merciful and Beneficent" "Good morning with the blessing of God and our Holy Mother" " What is wrong with you, man?" " Is this your "good morning"?" "No need for you to be mean I'll keep your secret" " I don't have secrets" " Okay, you don't have secrets" "But I'll make you a favor because we're neighbors and because of your good mother" "What is it?" " How much does Talal give you per month?" " 250 pounds" "Because you're stupid I swear that I'm not kidding" "I have a job for you with a salary of 600 pounds" "And it's a very decent job and if it's not, you would make it as such" "Our rulers pretend that they are ruling according to the Islamic Shari'a and that they are applying the democracy" "God knows they are lying in both because the Shari'a is inoperative in our distressed country" "And the state is getting profit by gambling, selling alcohol and the shameless tourism" "Worst of all is that the state transforms that money to salaries for the civil servants and feed its people from forbidden money and make them gain forbidden money" "And the curse of the forbidden will be on us" "I'm saying here clearly honestly and unmistakably" "We don't want our nation to be democratic, laic or socialist" "We want it to be an Islamic." "Islamic!" "Islamic!" " Islamic!" "Islamic!" " Islamic!" "Islamic!" " Islamic!" "Islamic!" " Islamic!" "Islamic!" " Good day" " Good day" " How are you, Busayna?" " As you see, I'm hanging out the washing" " Where were you?" " I was praying" "Friday's prayer was over more than two hours ago" "I was praying in a far mosque and I like to walk" "And the sermon of the Imam was a little bit long" "The religion is easiness find a closer mosque to pray in" " And what are those books?" " I have a book for you" " A gift?" " God willing" " Aren't you gonna shave?" " God willing, I won't shave anymore" " This is your book" " Keep it with you, my hands are wet" "Or wait, why don't you read it?" "I don't have the mood for reading" "Busayna, I don't like the way you are" "You're not my guardian" " Be reasonable, Busayna" " Leave my hand, Taha or I'll shout" " To this point?" " Listen, Taha" "I won't beat about the bush our relation is over" "In English, it's the end as they write it when a movie ends" "Everyone of us should go his way" "You're growing your beard and taking a religious path" "And I'm wearing short skirts and I like it" "So it seems that we're not suitable for each other" "And he brought me a gift?" "The veil before the accounting" "I wish you could stay the night with me for once to feel that I'm your wife like all the married women" "Be rational, Suad, our marriage is real" "We were married according to the law of God and His Prophet" "Moreover, staying the night isn't important that's not the manifestation of love" " What are you doing?" " I'm polishing your shoes" "No, the shoe polishing has principles, let me show you" "Look..." "Oh, my... as if you are a professional shoe polisher" "I like to polish shoes it relaxes me, thank you" "But I notice that each time you go to the other house you dress up" "The other house is the original one and we agreed that it's not your business" "My God, you mean this house isn't original?" "It's pure gold there and fake gold here" "Why all this fuss, Suad?" "Okay, the pure gold is here but there, I have the mother of my kids" "They are not kids, they are men now" " God bless you" " I'm sorry" " I wanted to ask you something" " Whatever you want, love" " I want to go to Alexandria" " Why?" "You forget that I have a son that I haven't seen for several months" "And I miss my parents and at least to smell the sea air a little bit" "I live in a big apartment alone and move between the kitchen, TV and bedroom" "You won't go to Alexandria alone, I must be with you" "Okay, come with me" "These days I can't leave Cairo at all" "Then, we can go in the afternoon and get back at the end of the day as if you are here with me" " Or let me go there alone" " Not this, nor that and don't forget, we had an agreement" " Okay, I have another solution" " I'll hear it" "Let my brother bring my son here for me to see him and play with him a little" "This wasn't in the agreement and then why don't you play with me?" "Honestly, is there anything better than playing with me?" "See you" "My God reward you" "Listen, Taha" "Love isn't a something shameful or forbidden the real love, the lawful love is permitted" "Our Prophet loved our Lady Isha and you say that you really love this girl" "Actually, I know her since she was a little girl playing on the roof" "We grew up and dreamt together" "And we also lived the happy and sad moments together" "I swear, Sheikh, in all the women of the world" "I've never seen one like her and I've never wanted another one" "God knows Taha how I feel towards you" "I hate to see you upset at all" "And I want to tell you that the Muslim doctrine keeps him always optimistic" "Patience is a virtue" "This girl closed all the doors in my face" "Maybe the relief is in another woman, my son" "This girl isn't all the women of the world, forget her and don't upset yourself" "After all, is it the love of a woman or the love of Jihad?" "The love of God or the love of a woman?" "God bless you, Sheikh, you helped me to relax and be at ease" "Let's talk about the most important thing" "The movement tomorrow won't be like any other day" "And I want you to have a leading role in it, Taha" "Islamic!" "Islamic!" "Neither eastern nor western" "Islamic!" "Islamic!" "Neither eastern nor western" "Islamic!" "Islamic!" "Neither eastern nor western" "Islamic!" "Islamic!"

"Miss Busayna el-Sayid, the daughter of the late Antar who lives on the roof" "Say hi to the pasha, Miss" " Good evening, sir" " Welcome" "From today, the office will be your responsibility, miss, okay?" " What is wrong?" " Who is it?" "Who is it?" "Who are those Abu-Taha?" "You took my son may God punish you" "His name is Taha Mohamed el-Shazli" "This is his file, we found these books in his house" "Get him down" "Taha, I promise you that no one will touch you again and that you'll get out from here immediately but you must talk." "What is your organization?" "I don't have one" "Taha, we found at your place the books on which all the organizations were founded" "What were they doing there?" "Those books aren't forbidden in addition, it's culture" "You shouldn't lie to a person trying to help you" "You're also underestimating me and I don't like it" "Sir, I was only participating in the demonstration" "In the building where your father works as a doorman a lot of high-class people live" " Whom do you know?" " I know all of them" " So you must know Mr. Hatim Rachid" " Of course, sir" " What do you know about him?" " He's a respectful journalist the editor of "Le Caire" newspaper" " What else?" " Just that, sir" "You're lying" "Taha, I know everything about all people" "I know what you don't know about your mother and father" "Did you know that your mother was married before your father?" "This is the first time I hear this, sir" "Ask her when you get out and see what she has to tell you" " Let's talk about Hatim Rachid" " He's..." " Excuse me, he's gay" " Good what does "gay" mean, Taha?" "Sir... you've just said that you know everything" "Okay, Taha, we'll do to you what we do to Hatim Rachid?"

" We want a quarter" " What quarter?" " Of the profits" "Should I know who are you first?" "What the matter, Haji?" "I'm saying that you're an experienced and intelligent man" "What do you mean?" "I'm not alone, Haji Azam" "I have with me a lot of people but they don't want to appear in the picture" "Consider me a representative" "A respectful people who don't accept this disgrace..."

" To speak my heart" " Couldn't you do so while sitting?" "Actually, I'm the cause of this vexation because I opened this dark subject" "Listen, I'll get you out of this mood" "You'll hear the most beautiful voice in the world" "She's a French singer called Edith Piaf" " Did you hear about her?"

" Would I do something forbidden?" "If it was so, I wouldn't have touched it" "But it seems that this is not of the good kind because you're not relaxed" "No, I'm relaxed and everything but I'm thinking of business" "And business isn't all good there are many problems outside" "And if I tell you something that will make you happy, relaxed and joyful" "What would you give her?" "Tell me, Suad, you might help me" "I..." "I'm two months pregnant, love" "What?" "May you and your family be damned" "I don't need this didn't we have an agreement?" "Is there an agreement in such matters?" "This is God's will" "Can anyone tell Him there was an agreement?" "Without any discussion, you must have an abortion, I don't need it" "And you don't need too" "But I need it, this is a part of me do you want to take a part of me?" "Listen, if you don't have an abortion, I'll divorce you" "Do it and God's law is between us" " Welcome back, my dear" " Thanks" "Why?" "I seem to have gotten back from a trip?" "Or from the Gulf?" " Then where are you coming from?" " Work" "But it's a lovely work, the best, didn't we have an agreement?"

"I'll pay on delivery" " So no money, no contract?" " Malak Armanius won't fail you, dear" "The money will be in your hand before I have my hand on the contract" "Who is it?" "Help me, Abd Rabu, your son has fever and is vomiting and I don't know what to do" "What are you waiting for, Abd Rabu?"

"God help you, he died" "My son, they have taken my son, Abd Rabu, my son!" "My son Abd Rabu!" " Did you see your sister and talked to her?" " I did" " Did you put some reason in her head?" " Listen, Haji you're a good man and love what is right, it's true I'm her brother" "And I can impose my opinion on her but not what God have ordered" "What does that mean?" "What about our agreement?" "Whatever agreement against God's law is null, Haji" " Are these your last words?" " These are hers" "Thank you, you've done your job, Mr. Hamido" "You can barely catch your train" "Mr. Hamido, why don't you take time to think and reconsider the matter and see where your interest is?" "After all, this was an intimacy and it must be respected" "I'm not the one who needs to think you're the one that should think" "We're not violating God's law and God is with us" "Be careful, you don't know where God's will might take a person" " What do you want from me?" " Get me some water" "Welcome, welcome, welcome welcome, Mr. Minister" " How are you, Haji?" "Congratulations" " Thank you very much, Mr. Kamal" "A photo, Mr. Kamal" "I wanted to talk to you urgently" "Whenever and wherever you want, sir" "Now, find us a private place" "Please" "You made a mistake, Haji" "God forbid, I always keep my word" "You're stalling, the contract has been with you for two months, what is the matter?" "It's a contract of a quarter partnership and the Japanese side should know about it" "And those are strict people if they thought I was messing around, they would cancel the deal" "What is wrong, Azam?" "You think I'm a Gallery owner" "You're talking to a man that can get the country up and then get it down again" "Everybody knows who you are and what you are capable of" "Wait, we have a saying:" ""Who got the mule up the minaret is the only one capable of getting it down"" "The mule?" "What does that mean?" "I mean that like I got you in the parliament, I can get you out of it" "And with a scandal if I want" "Is this a threat, Mr. Kamal?" "But I'm not a small figure to be threaten by you or by others" "Wow, wow, wow, we're so strong" "You started, Mr. Kamal" "If you're counting on the immunity, you're so naive" "A session or two in the parliament would be enough to take it from you" " You've got a lot to worry about" " No, I don't" "You have a lot to worry about I'll tell you a little thing about you" "What did you do with the military service?" "Nothing in your file proves that you've served" "What if I left the parliament the latter took from me and I didn't take anything from it" "Without the parliament, you would be naked in a crowded street" "I've already told, Azam I'm not alone, I'm a representative and I swear I'm the nicest one of all" "Don't be so stubborn?" "I'll tell something, Mr. Kamal, why don't we sit together and have an understanding?" " All of us" " Whom do you mean, Azam?" "You, me and those you say you represent" "Give me a chance to explain my situation they might understand me" "No, you're hopeless" "Mr. Kamal, I entered the parliament with my money" "Even if I get out, I'll consider it some goods that I bought and were burnt" "Dad, it seems that the head of the Japanese group wants to leave" "He can't, he should wait to hear the singer" " Come with us, Mr. Kamal" " No, forget it, this is your singer" " Good night" " Good night" " What is it, dad?"

" Serve him some kafta meat" " Here you go" " By the way, Haji, I forgot to congratulate you" "Thanks but on what?" " The cars deal" " We're still discussing the matter" "The Japanese people are still making profiles and inquiries" " You see your father, Fawzi" " I swear to God, nothing was signed yet" "What is the matter, kid?" "Haji Azam?" "My name is Kamal el-Fula and I know everything in this country" " This is known, sir" " And may you remain as such" "I hope it ends well" "This contract will get you at least 200 million pounds per year" "And this is a big piece for you, Haji and it can get stuck in your throat" " What do you mean by this?" " We want a quarter" " What quarter?" " Of the profits" "Should I know who are you first?" "What the matter, Haji?" "I'm saying that you're an experienced and intelligent man" "What do you mean?" "I'm not alone, Haji Azam" "I have with me a lot of people but they don't want to appear in the picture" "Consider me a representative" "A respectful people who don't accept this disgrace..." "What do you like in the nonsense of this man?" "Wait, wait and see what the time does and what will happen to him" "Wicked and naked girl, I don't know from where did they get them" "And today, the TV is in every house" "And in every house there're our daughters and sons and wives" " We need..." " You know nothing" "The man who was just talking used to polish shoes on the corner of the street" "You drink a lot, Pasha" "And early too people drink late at night" "We're having fun, do you want to have a drink with me?" "No, Pasha, thank you" " You've never had a drink?" " Never" "And the movies we see on TV taught me" "Do you want me to drink something yellow?" "Listen, I'll give you an idea it's bitter at first, very bitter, but later, it makes a person happy" "I won't drink whatever you say" " This is a waste" " No waste at all" "I'm talking about the difference between us and the foreigners" "They appreciate alcohol and respect it" "As for us, we appreciate the hashish." "The difference is huge" "Zaki Pasha, I don't have anything to do with this or that" "You, sir, are the one living like the foreigners" "Listen, if I'm dear to you lose the "sir"" "It's true I'm old but it's not necessary that you remind me from time to time" " Call me Zaki" " I'll say "Zaki Pasha"" "It's the same, I want to say that the foreigners' way of life isn't a novelty" "I was one of them I lived and studied in Paris" " I know Paris as I know Cairo exactly" " They say Paris is beautiful" "Not just beautiful it's the whole world" "Why did you leave?" "You could have stayed there" "I was brainless, or you can say it's stupidity or fate" " You seem you want to travel" " I wish" " Where do you want to go?" " Wherever outside this place" "You hate your country?" "Did I see anything good from it to love it?" "Busayna, it's true you are poor, but poverty has never something to do with patriotism" "What patriotism?" "Am I the only one that wants to leave?" "Everybody wants that if we still live like way before" "When the passports and visas didn't exist" "People would have left this country immediately" "Who doesn't find any good in his country, won't find anywhere else" "Because you live in it, Pasha" "What are your problems?" "You're fighting with your sister and what?" "There are people and their children who can't find anything to eat" "People wandering in the streets looking for a job and nobody cares about them" "People who are enduring humiliation and disgrace whether sitting or walking" "You walk in the Seliman street but go to another place and see what's happening" "Pasha, Egypt is becoming so harsh on its people" "That's why everybody wants to leave it" "Not because they hate it but nobody can bear its tyranny" "Why did you stand up?" " To speak my heart" " Couldn't you do so while sitting?" "Actually, I'm the cause of this vexation because I opened this dark subject" "Listen, I'll get you out of this mood" "You'll hear the most beautiful voice in the world" "She's a French singer called Edith Piaf" " Did you hear about her?" " I don't even know French" "It's not important to know French but that you feel the beauty of the voice and the loveliness of the performance" "And the magnificence of the tune" "This song reminds me of beautiful days and good memories" "This song talks about a girl standing in the traffic" "The crowds pushed her far away in front of a man she doesn't know" "But she felt something good towards him" "She felt that she wanted to live with him all her life" "All her life" "Then, the crowds came back again and they are separated for her to feel lonely again" "Unfortunately" "Come here" "You have very beautiful eyes" "It's the first time someone sees my eyes as they are" "Be careful, we must remain friends" "Friends, of course" "You know, Hoda, I started to like the cigarettes' smell" "But not all the cigarettes have a beautiful smell" "I do know that these are hashish cigarettes" " Isn't that forbidden, Hoda?" " Would I do something forbidden?" "If it was so, I wouldn't have touched it" "But it seems that this is not of the good kind because you're not relaxed" "No, I'm relaxed and everything but I'm thinking of business" "And business isn't all good there are many problems outside" "And if I tell you something that will make you happy, relaxed and joyful" "What would you give her?" "Tell me, Suad, you might help me" "I..." "I'm two months pregnant, love" "What?" "May you and your family be damned" "I don't need this didn't we have an agreement?" "Is there an agreement in such matters?" "This is God's will" "Can anyone tell Him there was an agreement?" "Without any discussion, you must have an abortion, I don't need it" "And you don't need too" "But I need it, this is a part of me do you want to take a part of me?" "Listen, if you don't have an abortion, I'll divorce you" "Do it and God's law is between us" " Welcome back, my dear" " Thanks" "Why?" "I seem to have gotten back from a trip?" "Or from the Gulf?" " Then where are you coming from?" " Work" "But it's a lovely work, the best, didn't we have an agreement?" "Yeah and I'm committed to it, you told me that you'll help me and I'll help you so what is the agreement?" "Okay, come with me inside to know what I want exactly" "You lost your mind?" "Listen, girl, this is work and not a joke" "This old good-for-nothing called Zaki Pasha is over, he'll die soon" "When he'll die, the apartment will be that of Fikri Abd el-Shahid" "This is a common property contract between the pasha and me" "When he dies, the apartment will be mine I'll get in it and never get out" "I want his signature on every paper of the contract" "And this is easy for you to do" "Let him sign while he's drunk while in your arms, I don't care" "You shouldn't have been called "Malak=angel"" "You're not Christian you are the devil himself" "I'll give you 5000 pounds" "You'll take them when you get me the signature of the pasha on the contract" "I don't think there's a man as straight as me whether Christian, Jewish or Muslim" "Think about your mother, and your brothers you deserve it more than anybody else" " You might die before Mr. Zaki" " Then, we would have tried take the contract" "And suppose I got the signature of Zaki Dusuki how can I be sure you're gonna pay me 5000 pounds?" "I'll pay on delivery" " So no money, no contract?" " Malak Armanius won't fail you, dear" "The money will be in your hand before I have my hand on the contract" "Who is it?" "Help me, Abd Rabu, your son has fever and is vomiting and I don't know what to do" "What are you waiting for, Abd Rabu?" "Your son is in a critical condition" "Ask your master to call an ambulance if he really cares" "Go get the kid and I'll meet you down, go what are you waiting for, Fahima?" "Go" "A huge problem at the end of the night" "He'll be fine, God willing, don't worry you're son will be taken care of, don't worry" "What, sir?" "God help you, he died" "My son, they have taken my son, Abd Rabu, my son!" "My son Abd Rabu!" " Did you see your sister and talked to her?" " I did" " Did you put some reason in her head?" " Listen, Haji you're a good man and love what is right, it's true I'm her brother" "And I can impose my opinion on her but not what God have ordered" "What does that mean?" "What about our agreement?" "Whatever agreement against God's law is null, Haji" " Are these your last words?" " These are hers" "Thank you, you've done your job, Mr. Hamido" "You can barely catch your train" "Mr. Hamido, why don't you take time to think and reconsider the matter and see where your interest is?" "After all, this was an intimacy and it must be respected" "I'm not the one who needs to think you're the one that should think" "We're not violating God's law and God is with us" "Be careful, you don't know where God's will might take a person" " What do you want from me?" " Get me some water" "Welcome, welcome, welcome welcome, Mr. Minister" " How are you, Haji?" "Congratulations" " Thank you very much, Mr. Kamal" "A photo, Mr. Kamal" "I wanted to talk to you urgently" "Whenever and wherever you want, sir" "Now, find us a private place" "Please" "You made a mistake, Haji" "God forbid, I always keep my word" "You're stalling, the contract has been with you for two months, what is the matter?" "It's a contract of a quarter partnership and the Japanese side should know about it" "And those are strict people if they thought I was messing around, they would cancel the deal" "What is wrong, Azam?" "You think I'm a Gallery owner" "You're talking to a man that can get the country up and then get it down again" "Everybody knows who you are and what you are capable of" "Wait, we have a saying:" ""Who got the mule up the minaret is the only one capable of getting it down"" "The mule?" "What does that mean?" "I mean that like I got you in the parliament, I can get you out of it" "And with a scandal if I want" "Is this a threat, Mr. Kamal?" "But I'm not a small figure to be threaten by you or by others" "Wow, wow, wow, we're so strong" "You started, Mr. Kamal" "If you're counting on the immunity, you're so naive" "A session or two in the parliament would be enough to take it from you" " You've got a lot to worry about" " No, I don't" "You have a lot to worry about I'll tell you a little thing about you" "What did you do with the military service?" "Nothing in your file proves that you've served" "What if I left the parliament the latter took from me and I didn't take anything from it" "Without the parliament, you would be naked in a crowded street" "I've already told, Azam I'm not alone, I'm a representative and I swear I'm the nicest one of all" "Don't be so stubborn?" "I'll tell something, Mr. Kamal, why don't we sit together and have an understanding?" " All of us" " Whom do you mean, Azam?" "You, me and those you say you represent" "Give me a chance to explain my situation they might understand me" "No, you're hopeless" "Mr. Kamal, I entered the parliament with my money" "Even if I get out, I'll consider it some goods that I bought and were burnt" "Dad, it seems that the head of the Japanese group wants to leave" "He can't, he should wait to hear the singer" " Come with us, Mr. Kamal" " No, forget it, this is your singer" " Good night" " Good night" " What is it, dad?" " Everything has its limits, son" "And your father knows when to say "no"" "Stars shining bright above you" "Night breezes seem to whisper "I love you"" "Birds singing in the sycamore trees" "Dream a little dream of me" "Say "nighty-night" and kiss me" "Just hold me tight and tell me "you miss me"" "While I'm alone and blue as can be" "Dream a little dream of me" "Stars fading but I linger on, dear" "Still craving your kiss" "I'm longing to linger till dawn, dear" "Just saying this" "Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you" "Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you" "But in your dreams whatever they be dream a little dream of me" "...to whisper "I love you"" "I swear that you knew Mrs. Christine and as if she's singing for you" "She's singing for the both of us" "No woman on earth forgets the one who loved her or the one she loved" "You're right but Christine and I dealt with each other by the foreigners' logic" "Our passion became a friendship" "It's hard for two persons that love each other to become enemies even if they are separated" "You know, Zaki Pasha if I find someone exactly like you but younger, I'll marry him" "You won't find a young person that is like me, my dear" "We are the last respectful men" " Don't ask me to sing again" " I'm ready to hear you all night" "Christine, you are all the good memories in my whole life" " You drank a lot, Zaki" " Yeah, this is true" "Please Mrs. Take this bottle away from here" "You're the only one whom he listens to" "On the roof" "Welcome back, Mr. Hatim, it's not normal for you to be this late at work" "Thank you, Shazli, I've just come back from Alexandria" "There were a party attended by the Prime Minister and I was invited" " Is there something?" " Yes, sir" " Here" " What are those?" "This is the key of the stand in City of Nasr and this is the key of the room on the roof" "Abd Rabu took his wife and left the building, sir" "Piece of shit" "May God forgive you and guide you" "Mr. Issam..." "Mrs. Rachid..." "Professor Rachid" "Mr. Issam, the Mrs. is with the French Consul" " Hatim, get out!" " Hatim, get out!" "Get out!" "Typical Parisian woman" "You don't have anything to do with Idriss, you didn't love me as much as him" "Dad?" "Dad?" "Half a hour a week only... busy... not a half a hour you've never played with me" "Idriss, what are you doing?" "The servants used to play with me" "Why are you so upset?" "Why are you staring at me like this?" "Thank you, thank you very much" "Thank you very much indeed" "The jerks" "One time you asked me why didn't I stay in Paris" "I answered that it was fate actually, the truth is totally different" "This country was better than Paris" "The fashion would appear here before it did in Paris, the streets were very clean" "They used to wash them everyday and the stores were splendid" "And people had good manners" "Zaki Pasha, we'll continue this conversation when we go up, people are staring at us" "Why should they stare at us?" "Let them stare at the country that was ruined!" "Let them stare at the buildings that were better than those of Europe!" "They became dumps up and shits down" "We are in the era of shit" "I'm the senior resident of this building" "I'm the senior resident I spent the best days of my life here and with the best people" "From the first princesses till you, my princess" "Zaki Pasha, let's go up and you'll say whatever you want" "I'm the senior resident here I'm the senior resident" "...dream a little dream of me" " I want a favor, Pasha" " Whatever you want" "You can have all Seliman Pasha street I'm the senior resident of this building" "I asked for a credit of 5000 pounds from the bank" "But they said I should have a guarantor" "I'd guarantee you with my life" "If I didn't do so, who will?" "I have the papers you want to sign them?" "No, no, like this" "What?" "What's wrong, Pasha?" " What's wrong?" " I want to go to the bathroom" "I hope you get well, Pasha I hope so..." "come, come, Pasha, I hope you get well" "I hope you get well" " I hope you get well, Pasha" " I'm in my best shape" "Zaki Pasha!" "Zaki Pasha!" "Get up!" "Get up!" "Get up!" " What's wrong, lady?" " Where am I?" "Thank God you're safe you had a severe bleeding" "Bleeding, you piece of shit?" "You made me abort against my will, I'll sue you all" "Help Hamido, they made abort me against my will" "They killed my son" "They've done it, Hamido" "Mrs. Suad, it is fate" "Haji Azam has always kept his words" "There was an agreement between both of you and you violated it thus, everyone must take the responsibility of his actions" "I wish you die, you, your father and your whole family" " You tyrants, jerks, pieces of shit" " I don't want any disrespect and ill-manners" "You suffered from a bleeding and we took you to the best hospital in the country" "The Haji is a good believer and he would never violate God's law" "Haji Azam divorced you, Suad" "And you must know that you'll get all your rights and more" "Your brother has a check of 20000 pounds and we've paid the bill of the hospitals" "And you'll get whatever you have in the apartment delivered to you in Alexandria" "What?"
