www.shortsto.blogspot.com The original Arabic story at the parallel blog                                                    
The face of the mother ,was telling you , that she was expecting something happened before her coming . The first thing, she asked the husband to be tolerant with her daughter, because she might fear or astonished from the new life, like many other wives (according to her opinion) , like her daughters for examples , when every one of them married , but they became good wives ,lest the bad fortune of them ,because their husbands dead one after the other ,one of them was old ,and the other was ill, her daughters wept after their death, because they loved their husbands very much , her talking made Mr, X remembered the foolish advertisement of the Insurance company, which promised the client to give the prize of the Insurance agreement ,to the inheritances after the death of the client ,he preferred to left her with her daughter ,and withdrew to another room , hoping that she could treat her daughter ,and at the same time to pray for her to his God ,they said " The love can do miracles " , afterwards our friend knew that the purpose of the wise man ,who said this phrase ,it was speaking about miracles for the lover partner, not for the careless one . after the departure of her mother, Mme Y was quite and normal to some extend , she began talking with him , her gossip was talking about some events, occurred to her brothers and sister ,she forget the talking of her mother completely ,and told the husband that her sisters were divorced before the death of their husbands . It shocked him very much , that he thought about the secret background of his wife, which he did not know any thing about it . It was not wise to behave before recognizing a clear idea about her case , she left him to take her daily bath ,and he returned to pray , he wished to make a real Christian family , but how ? his soul led him to ask her to pray with her, so when she returned he told her his idea ,she accepted it , so he pleased  , and closed his eyes to pray with her ,with a great feeling of joy , he remembered that it was not a long prayer , but after he finished it , he did not listen to her voice , he opened his eyes and found her sleeping on her seat ,he awakened her with meekness , when she opened her eyes she said " last night we went to sleep late , sorry let me sleep ,we will pray later ,Then, he understood the case , she is a child in her emotions, in spite of her grown up body , that was the real reason of the failure of the marriage of her sisters ,his heart led him to the words of the pastor last night when he advised him to be instead of her parents , so , he must be her husband , father and if he could ,to be instead of her mother also ,his soul felt comfort to practice the real Christian life, to treat her as a baby , he took care of her while she was pregnant ,God comforted him , although her old age ,after she bore the baby his duty was to take care of her and his children , while she used to go to her work daily ,between the employees who used to avoid her ,then went to her mother to pay her daily visit to her, after that to her friends ,who were some old girls could not find husbands , or lost their husbands ,or has a problems with their husbands ,the rest of the day she returned to the home ,talking about the secrets of those , eating and sleeping , so it was a mercy from God to make her busy by the problems of the others , in stead of creating problems inside the house ,she was quarrellings with her friends sometimes, and sometimes like them . Her busy life were God's will ,to left Mr X in safe , educating the child the real Christian life and be joy . followed .                        Rev.Joseph
