Contradictions. In the morning though she
seemed as if she had had enough of talking. She
ignored my question with an inaudible mumble,
and then walked to the shower, sipping the rest

followed her into the shower to just see how she
is. I stood and watched the water caressing her

standing at the doorway. She asked if I wanted
fellatio, just as the noise for morning prayers
sounded. I said I was fine. As she was leaving I
said goodbye, and I saw a tear in her eye, so I
then tried to stop her but before I could, she was
gone in a hurry after leaving me with the
affirmation that I didn’t truly care. And the

Ahmed at an awkward time in life—he was
around seventeen at the time and their Father
had just died in a very dubious fashion I couldn’t
quite fully gather: My mom wouldn’t cook meat
