EPISODE 6

Chahine!

Chahine!

Chahine!

Chahine!

Ghazi Sheikh Al Jabal? How did he know? Who told him?

Okay, I'll come right away.

So?

Are you going to stay mad?

Stop that, Tharwat.

I tried to be nice but you didn't answer.

You don't like this way either. I'm at a loss.

It's not that. I can't talk. I don't want to hear a thing.

You're being very rude.

I am not used to that.

What are you used to?

To hitting me and shouting in my face whenever you want?

I told you I am sorry.

Let it go.

Don't you want to ask me about the trip?

Tell me.

They didn't tell me you were here.

So, um, Ali, where is your son?

He's not here, do you want anything from him?

I didn't find Sakher in his room.

I thought to myself he must be with your son.

Yes, they were bored, they went for a walk.

A walk? At night? It's so cold.

What's wrong, Sakher?

That's it, I can't wait any longer.

-Lay down until they arrive. -Lay down?

How could I? I don't know Jabal's whereabouts.

-Calm down, Sakher. -Sakher…

your brother Jabal is no child.

Like you're sad for your cousin, he's sad and in pain too.

I am not sad over anyone, I just want to see Jabal.

No matter what you're going through,

you're a man, you should be able to survive this.

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger. This is Sultan's greatest legacy.

God…

Abu Issa!

He's recovering well.

The wound is healing. His body has started to recover.

Is he going to wake up? When will he be on his feet again?

It's in God's hands.

He could wake up any time from the shock and regain consciousness.

Try to talk to him as much as you can.

Any words, anything from his memories, might help him.

Jabal, your cousin is still alive.

You must be grateful.

Thank God.

What can I tell you? I wasn't ready at all.

But when we met, the topic came up.

One word led to another and with some popular quotes,

the meeting was over and everyone was clapping.

I remembered you then. I thought, Nour must have prayed for me.

Nour?

Sweetheart, did you fall asleep?

Leave me alone. He's my son, leave me.

You need to calm down. If you can't, we will make you.

My son was killed.

My son was killed and his rival is free. How can I calm down? Leave me alone.

This won't do you any good, Ghazi.

If you act carelessly, you will rot in here

and won't be able to pray for his soul over his grave.

Listen to me…

this won't do you any good.

You're a strong man. You've survived darker days.

It's Chahine, sir.

It's Chahine.

-Chahine! -May he rest in peace.

Now, be strong and prove that you're stable.

So, we can put you back where you were, at least.

Leave him!

Walid, you're here on time. I was trying to call you.

I parked the car here yesterday and I can't find it today.

Someone must have stolen it.

Calm down. First, good morning.

How can it be good? The car's stolen.

Don't worry, we have the car. It is not stolen.

This is your new car.

Congratulations!

You deserve much more.

THARWAT

Yes, Tharwat?

You scared me.

No, it's nice but I'm used to the other one.

Don't be sad, thank you so much.

Tharwat, I need to go, I'm running late for work.

Okay.

Bye.

I talked to Ali a moment ago.

He told me that your brother didn't slept while he was waiting for you.

It will be okay, Abu Ali. Don't you worry.

So, you made up your mind?

Is there any other solution?

Look…

tonight, after dark,

bring him here. I don't want anyone to know.

If he asks me where to, what should I tell him?

Tell him, when you arrive, you will know.

Mrs. Nahed, you slept here?

-Did Sakher come back? -No, but rest assured, he's with Ali.

What are they doing out for so long?

They're at Abu Issa's.

Sakher is feeling stressed and wants to stay there for a few days.

I will prepare breakfast.

You mean there are snitches on the inside?

Unfortunately,

it seems that someone was able to get to the guard who was giving him food.

Who's interested in telling Ghazi about his son's death?

There are many but this is not important.

We should keep on coordinating with the warden to know his reaction.

It's very nice, but it's not my type of car.

-Why not? -I like them big, four doors.

This is tiny, I can't handle it.

One door is enough. Give me this, sweetie.

Here, right?

-Do you want to sign? -Hello.

Hi, love.

-How are you, Louay? -Fine!

Can I take my fiancée early today?

Sure!

Come along, we will have a great time together.

-No, I can't. -Seriously, we won't be long.

I am really busy, I need to go shopping.

You want to buy him a gift in return?

-You could say so. -Call me when you're done.

-Meet up with us. -Have a great time

-and don't worry about me. -Okay, bye!

-Bye! -Bye!

The situation is a bit delicate I need to stay focused.

I will be held accountable for any move.

This is your personal life, Mr. Tharwat.

You can live it as it pleases you.

I need to be selfish…

in order to keep on standing.

You are not a stranger and you know how sensitive my position is.

She is a famous broadcaster as well. We're both under the spotlight.

Thank you for your trust.

But are you saying that you might marry her?

Of course not. On the contrary…

I can't take risks inside nor outside the house.

This was the condition of the relationship in the first place.

Nour totally understands this.

I am sorry for intruding again.

How long will she keep on being so understanding?

I mean, she has millions of fans and admirers.

They'll surely ask her, "Why aren't you married yet?"

"Aren't you in a relationship?"

You know social media nowadays.

Hand the files to the ministry yourself.

Let them be registered under an old date.

Do not come back until you're sure everything is fine.

Sure, Mr. Tharwat.

What's the occasion?

Well, since my beloved neighbor doesn't have a phone,

as he's told me,

I thought it's the only way I'll know when he's home.

What if I was going out?

I'll wait for you to come back. You're so silly!

Thank you so much. It smells nice.

-Is this how you wear cologne? -How else?

You did all this so you can know when I come and go?

Shouldn't you have installed a bell on the door?

Then it will ring whenever I come and go.

The story is still fresh. It needs time.

-You couldn't know his opinion? -I didn't push him.

The boy is facing a big problem and he is not thinking straight.

Your nephew is taking the blame for what happened.

That's why he needs to know that we're standing by him.

Mr. Zaidan is ready to pay the costs on his behalf.

The boy is a mess and don't forget…

Jabal and Chahine used to be like brothers.

This was a long time ago,

before he was the leader and enjoyed power.

Jabal can't forget his best interests, just like his father and uncle.

And his maternal uncle.

-What are you talking about, chief? -Sit down, son, and calm down.

Am I annoying you? Has anyone complained?

No, son, your father was my brother and you are like a son.

I thought we could find you a job to fill your time.

Thank you, uncle, but we need nothing.

Son, we don't always work out of need.

Do I need the chief's salary?

One must keep on working so he can appreciate himself.

Be honest, chief.

Being lazy and hanging out at coffee shops is the problem here.

You should do something.

Don't worry, I'm busy and don't have time.

Busy? Doing what?

My father's soul is with me day and night.

He wants me to avenge him.

You're welcome!

-Hello -Hello, how can I help you?

I read on the website that you need editors for the newspaper, right?

-Yes. -Yes.

Please, can you fill in this CV and we will get back to you.

Sure, sure, I will figure it out.

Goodbye!

See you later!

I am sorry, madam. I came without an appointment.

You are most welcome.

-You are one of us, Issa. -Thank you, madam.

I finished the divorce papers today.

I sent a copy to Canada and this is a copy for you to keep.

DIVORCE DECREE

Okay.

Did you tell Jabal?

To be honest, Jabal seems is a bit worried.

I thought I'd give you the paper and you can tell him in your way.

-Are you busy now? -Not at all, madam.

I want you to take me to him.

This way I can check up on him…

and give him the paper.

Let's go, Ali.

-Do you want anything, Abu Issa? -I don't know what to say.

Hopefully, it will pass.

-Pray for us. -Keep me in the loop.

-Goodbye! -Goodbye!

I will go with him alone.

Why, father?

I want to go with you. I'll be with Sakher and see Jabal.

You will soon, son.

You should go home.

You can't leave your mother and Mrs. Nahed alone.

Go!

Oh, my God!

-Hello, Mother. -God bless you.

Come in!

I swear that no one told me you were coming.

I wanted to call you and tell you but Mrs. Nahed refused.

I was afraid you would refuse…

and I miss you so much.

I miss you too. You're my everything, mother.

What's wrong, tell me?

Okay, I will wait for you down in the car.

Excuse me!

For Sultan's sake, speak up. What's wrong?

Your brother and sister…

your brother and sister didn't respect my word.

I can't control any of them.

The same old talk.

Sakher can't stand staying at home.

He fled to Abu Issa's.

And your sister before him.

She…

went back to her house.

I am all alone.

Staying at home by myself.

Don't you cry, mother. Don't you cry.

Let it go…

let it go. You are our backbone.

I don't want to see you cry, please.

Oh, son.

Oh, darling.

No matter how strong…

a woman is…

her weakness is her children.

Only her children.

How are you, Rima?

I don't know.

Calm down, don't worry.

I promise you, you will be very satisfied.

You're right not to believe me…

but you don't know me yet, Rima.

But I promise, I will stand by you

and support you.

I won't rest until you laugh again.

But from the bottom of your heart, Rima, not sarcastically.

I spent my entire life building up this house…

for you and your children.

Everything I did was for you.

And in the end,

you left me all alone.

No way, no way.

No one would dare leave you. What are you saying?

As you can see, Mother,

this needs time.

Seriously?

I've used this lie on your brother and sister.

You're using it on me now?

We both…

know the secret.

We can handle it.

Your daughter…

has had a problem with us since the beginning.

At the end of the day, she only went home.

Give her some time to think again.

You should have been with us. Your house and family need you more.

I am with you, Mother. I swear, you're always on my mind.

Tonight.

Hopefully, tonight Sakher's problem will be resolved.

Are you going to see him?

No…

he's coming here.

I don't get it. Is he coming here?

To the hospital, I sent Abu Ali to bring him.

-They are about to arrive. -Wait, which hospital?

To see Chahine?

This is the best solution, Mother.

What happened with Chahine made him forget about his problems.

Your son is feeling guilty about his death.

He won't rest. He won't rest until he knows he's alive.

What are you saying?

You want your brother to meet your cousin?

What's wrong with you, Mother?

Sooner or later he will know.

Do you want me to wait until he's lost completely?

Your son is troubled and he might hurt himself.

That's why you shouldn't let him come.

Are you worried about Chahine?

He's unconscious and in coma.

That too?

Listen, Jabal…

If you want to tell Sakher, I have no problem.

He's your brother and no stranger after all.

But not this way…

and not now.

Your cousin is between life and death, you said it yourself.

Sakher's problem now is because he shot that traitor.

How will you ease his worries? How will you calm him down?

You want to tell Sakher that your cousin is alive,

while you can't be sure if he will make it till tomorrow?

Haven't you thought what will happen to your brother if he dies?

Hasn't he suffered for this already? You want to kill him twice?

Twice? I promise you, any other trauma and we will lose him.

Oh, my God!

Is it my fate to lose my children one after another, Jabal?

Is it my fate?

Is it my fate, Jabal?

Take it easy. Slowly, slowly…

-Abu Ali? -Yes?

Will you tell me where you're taking me?

-We will arrive shortly. -Welcome, Sakher.

-I know this voice. -Let's go, this way.

You have the time to guess.

Slowly, slowly!

-Come in. -Come.

Follow me.

Sakher!

Oh, brother, I am lost.

I am lost. I have no idea what to do.

You're right.

What happened is not easy.

This is the problem, what happened is huge…

all because of me.

Stop with your nonsense. Stop it, man.

What has happened,

isn't our fault.

This is unjust.

Your cousin Chahine is dead because of me,

can you imagine?

Can you imagine that?

Chahine, my cousin…

our fathers are brothers,

we grew up together.

We did everything together…

absolutely everything.

Even when we fell in love we wanted our loves to be relatives.

For good and bad times.

No need to remind you that he risked his life with us.

Yes, he risked his life with us.

In the end…

he died because of me.

It's fate. What you're saying is nonsense.

You know better than what fate had in store for us.

All I know is that none of us wanted to kill him.

It wasn't meant to happen.

I wish I'd stopped it with my chest.

God forbid!

Stop crying, stop behaving like women.

There's no need to remind you

that your cousin…

tricked us for a long time.

He didn't spare a thing.

Hold it, if you want to talk like your mother,

I don't want to listen.

I've had enough of this shit.

Chahine betrayed you, true.

But even you were able to forgive him.

We didn't want to forgive him…

nor kill him.

Jabal…

I beg you, stop pushing me.

I will, so you can heal once and for all.

You must stop crying and forget about those dark ideas.

What do you think? I want you to know…

I swear…

that I'm upset…

because of Chahine more than because of you.

He broke me. I am angry because of him and his condition.

He broke me, Sakher!
