Dinam povToday like the previous days, I went out early in the morning and walked the streets of Dalbey in search of work. It has become my routine for almost a month. It's crazy how work has become impossible to find in this country. Yet I am not demanding. Even if it's cleaning the toilet, I'm willing to do it, as long as I have some money to pay for my mom's medical care.Indeed, it has been a year since my mother was diagnosed with terminal blood cancer. She wasn't sickly by nature though. Just last year she fell seriously ill. I am the only child she has had. My mother failed to get married. She preferred putting into sacrifice her happiness for my well-being. Even though she had never told me, I knew she must have suffered a lot in her life, especially sentimentally. When I was a child, I used to ask her all the time where my father was. She always told me that he is dead.Living without both parents c
Dinam povI thought the young lady was kidding me."Excuse me, you're kidding me right there?!" I asked as I jumped up from the bench I was sitted."Marry me!" She repeated more clearly."But are you crazy ?!" I exclaimed at her proposal which I found very strange."Yes, I'm a little crazy, but it's doable. You are in need of money and I am looking for a husband. What could be more normal than to make a deal?"Her tone was quiet, meanwhile I was so puzzled by her words. I began to spout words without controlling myself."I rather believe that you must be in a satanic sect and you are asked to get married in order to sacrifice your poor future husband. And as you saw me earlier looking desperate, you said to yourself here is the perfect target, the one that will do the trick because he has no other choice, since he is broke."
Dinam povI can't believe it! The young woman from the last time is standing there in the courtyard. Looking at her, I could deduce that she was there a long time ago and therefore, she must have taken part in the scene with the lessor."What are you doing in my home?" I questioned going against her?However, the young woman did not pay attention at me. On the contrary, she ignored me and walked towards the landlord who had stopped his task when he saw her."Young girl, I will not allow you to insult my house!" He thundered angrily."But I didn't insult it, sir. I just described what my eyes were seeing. Anyway, how much does this man owe you?" The young lady interrogated him again.The lessor seems to hesitate a moment, but ends up saying to give the amount of my arrears to the young woman. The latter takes a checkbook from her bag and scri
Maieil povI went home with the hope that Dinam would accept my proposal. His mother seemed to want to help me. She is really nice this beautiful lady! I know that my approach may seem like madness, but it was the only alternative available to me at the moment. Besides, I don't have time to think about the consequences that my approach could have. The most important thing now is to get out of trouble. Either I marry a man with whom I can agree around a marriage contract where everyone will come out a winner. In this case, we can live together for two or three years. Of course, we will just strive to show everyone that we are married, but each will be free from any commitment vis-à-vis one and the other. When the agreed period is over, we separate and each will go their own way. Everyone has something to gain. If this alternative does not work, however, then I will be forced to marry the suitor proposed to me by my mother-in-law, to my greatest dismay. Indee
Very weary of slaving to the left and right without finding a job, Dinam decides to accept this marriage despite finding it strange. No matter how serious he has been thinking day and night, it is his only escape route at the moment.Dinam POVMy future wife and I are going to a nearby town for the celebration of "our wedding". We decided to do things in a very simplistic way. It's just an arranged marriage, none of us is excited to celebrate it. Maieil was forced to do so to escape the suitor her stepmother had in store for her. As for me, I am doing it for my mother. It had been over a month since she had been able to do her therapy. At this level of the disease, she must follow her therapy regularly at the risk of precipitating her life to death. Thanks to the gratuities of my future wife, my mother is now following her therapy very well. Even though I was scared at the start, I decide to let down the guards. Just like me, Maïe
Dinam POVThe good lady looked at me with so much disdain. She was staring at me squarely. As for me, I felt so humiliated. I lowered my head without saying anything. Why of all the houses there were in this town, did I have to come across the same one where I had been humiliated a few weeks earlier? At the same time, I must also admit that I had already walked through more than a third of the big houses and businesses in the city in search of work. I regret that bitterly at this time. Because all these humiliations have led to nothing except to make me be taken for a beggar."It seems to me that you have brought us together to introduce us to your husband! Correct me if I'm wrong. Where is this supposed husband?" Maïeil's stepmother asked, turning to Maïeil."Here's him. Do you know each other? Why are you talking to him so condescendingly?" Maïeil wondered looking around from her stepmother to me.
Dinam povAll eyes were now on us. What to answer to these questions which were by far the trap?"My love, I leave you the honor of telling this table how our meeting went. You are the one who is good at this kind of thing." I say to Maïeil while trying to escape."Ah no no honey! You're the first to approach me, so it's up to you to tell them." Maïeil retorted, making me break into a cold sweat."What's going on? You're a young couple, you're supposed to be excited to talk about how you met. Am I wrong or you don't have any story related to how you met?" The witch intervened."It's true, tell us how it all came about." Adds Maïeil's father."Uh... Actually, Maïeil and I met and we fell in love right away." I tried very hard to say."Where and how did you meet?" Asked Martine i
DinamMaïeil's step-mother is ready to do anything to prove to her husband that our marriage is not true. This lady turned out to be tougher and smarter than I imagined. She managed to find Maïeil and me lying on different places. And I, who hadn't even thought that the idea of spying on us would cross her mind! Luckily I'm not used to sleeping soundly. I wake up most often at the slightest noise. When Martine entered the first time, I woke up when she quietly closed the door. I then rushed to Maïel."Maieil!" I woke her up by shaking her hard.She wakes up painfully. You can tell she was still very sleepy."Dinam? What is it?" She asked me, giving me a curious look."Your mother-in-law came here. She just left. She doesn't know I saw her."Maïeil cursed while getting up quickly.&
