Redeeming Brokenness
Öykü Penceresi Metni
- My name is Abheest Abbas, I am a 13 year-old tennager from Lebanon, I live in a Maronite Catholic community in the city of Jounieh, and let’s say I am not that lucky. Unlike many of my classmates, my family is formed by a long line of people who are extremely self centered, in other words they are extremely selfish regardless of what the consequences are. My father, like his father before him, has lost everything. Betted everything he had on selfish ambition for money, borrowed from very bad people, and even worse, he pushed everyone away including my mom. As a matter of fact, the only person I have, well, used to have, was my best friend Aqeel Abadi who happens to be born on the same date I was. Our dynamic is pretty simple, he is the brains and I am the muscle.
- 4 Weeks ago (2:08, June 28th, 2004, Aqeel’s home) Aqeel's front door.
- Aqeel, man I need your help.
- Aqeel: Not your dad punishing you, I know how hard Mr. Abbas can be. I mean about winning the bet.Abheest: Dude just trust me, for once.Aqeel: I trust you, but I don’t trust them. The last time you made a bet with them and you won, they almost broke your ribs and my leg with a pipe. So tell me genius, what is your plan?Abheest: I don’t have one.
- Sure man, tell me, what is it that you need? Please tell me it is not money that you are going to use to bet on a soccer game with those kids again?
- Abheest: 23k Liras?Aqeel: Don’t play dumb, and answer the question. What are you going to use the money for?Abheest: Listen, I took money from my Dad.Aqeel: Oh dear lord, not again.
- Abheest: Shut it, I want the money to get it back this time. This time I won’t lose. If my dad notices I took 23,000 Liras from him, he’ll kill me.Aqeel: How are you so sure? Abheest: About what? My dad ripping my soul out of my body? I don’t even have to...
