Moab's mother: I didn't come to insult you Dina, madam I just want to talk to your daughter
Mom: yes, of course
Moab's mother: can we be alone?
Me: no
Mom: Irma, no, let's go out.
Me: but mom
Moab's mother: please, if Amir arrives, tell him to come
Mom: well she says before taking my hand so we can go out
Amir Sow
I had just arrived at the hospital with food for Dina and I saw her mother and her sister in the corridor.
Me: Mom, what's wrong?
Mom: Moab's mother arrived and asked us to talk to Dina.
Me: my God she......
Mom: she didn't come to make trouble and she asked you to come in when you arrive
Me: ok, I'll go, here's some food
Them: thank you
Me: please say before leaving
I arrived in the room and I found Dina with Moab's mother, Dina was just looking at her.
Me: Good morning ma'am
She: Good morning. What are you holding there?
Me: food
She: give it I will give it to him
Dina: Madam I am not hungry I assure you but thank you
She: no, no, you won't refuse to eat, there is my little son who is growing in your belly Dina, it's true my son is dead and I can perfectly understand your pain more than I have lived it too, but I beg you to eat for your good and for the good of your child
Dina: why are you telling me all this, you don't like me I know it so why are you worrying about me or my child
She: because I did wrong and I admit it, I was just mad at you because I didn't choose you for my son
Dina: you know, you don't choose a wife for your son, it's not right unless he asks you to or if you think that the woman he chose is not good for him with proofs to support it, otherwise let them make their own choice because it's not you who will wake up every day next to this woman or who will spend a whole life with this person When you choose a husband for a woman it is quite easy because women love easily but men do not. But women should also have the choice.
She: I understand that you are suspicious and I understand what you are telling me, I have done wrong and I ask you to forgive me. But I take you to eat, to take strength to give birth to the child of Moab
Dinah: I told you I am not hungry
Me: Dina please eat I beg you
Dina: Okay
Moab's mother: I'm going to go now but I'll be back tomorrow
Me: yes, okay
I stayed with Dina and looked at her. I think that with the arrival of this child she will regain a taste for life, if only a little.
Me: wait I'll help you
She: no, let me, I can do it
Me: no, you can't, you're hurt
She: ok
I started to feed her slowly, I wanted her to finish the whole dish but she told me she couldn't take it anymore.
Me: five more mouthfuls and that will be all
Her: no I can't take it anymore, keep it for later
Me: ok. Thanks
Her: what thank you for?
Me: just thank you. Now lie down and rest.
Her: I'm not tired.
Me: please Dina
Six months later
Dina's sale was very visible now, her little baby was growing normally, she had regained some color but her face was still sad, most of the time I was with her so that she didn't feel lonely anymore than her family had returned, I was with her most of the time so that she wouldn't feel lonely anymore than her family was back, but Moab's mother came by regularly without overdoing it, she was very happy with Dina, she had given a lot of presents for the baby, which according to the ultrasound was a little boy, Dina was so proud of it and I will have a little boy too, whom I will treat as my son if Dina will let me.
Four months later
It was August, I was at home watching TV when I got a call from Henry.
Him: hey man
Me: Hi, are you ok?
Him: Yeah. I just wanted to tell you that we took Dina to the hospital, she was having contractions and Elena and my mom took her to the hospital.
Me: Okay, I'm coming.
An hour later
I arrived at the hospital an hour ago and the good news was that Dina had given birth, she was asleep now and certainly exhausted, her little baby was all white it looked like a white baby but it wasn't. Moab's mother was happy and I called Dina's mother to tell her the good news.
The next day
I was waiting for Dina to wake up with impatience with a beautiful baby in my arms, she started to move.
Me: ah look my love your little mom is awake
She: good morning she says while straightening up
Me: hello you have seen I already know how to hold him
She: yes and unfortunately not me
Me: it is not difficult you will see
Her: yes I do not doubt it
Me: you have already chosen a name
She: Moab and I talked about it and I think he would have liked us to call him Mika
Me: that's a very nice name
Her: or do you have a suggestion
Me: not at all, I like it
She: ok
The nurse in the room.
She: hello sir, hello new mom
We: good morning
She: then it's time for you to breastfeed your son, give him to me
I did as she said
She put Mika in Dina's hands
She: I'm going to untie your blouse so that you can breastfeed your son
Dina: ah but, but..... Can I cover my breast with a sheet?
Me: ah Dina I am sorry I will wait outside
I left the room a little amused by Dina's behavior, she was afraid that I would see her breast. I looked through the window Dina had covered her chest, she was breastfeeding her son and it was a beautiful picture, I took out my phone and took a picture to immortalize the scene.
