And Sensei Alan had always said, “The first truth of knife defense is that you will get cut.” Being slashed by a beauty queen would be just as painful as being slashed by a Japanese samurai. He’d studied knife defense in karate, but had never attempted it in reality. But what would Omar do when he got there? He didn’t relish the idea of taking on a knife wielding lunatic, even if she was the former Miss Cuba. Torre del Cielo was two exits south on the Corredor Sur – on the way to the airport, luckily. He made good money in his practice, but he still hit up Omar a couple of times a year, asking to borrow money to pay off his credit cards.

Throw Her Off The Balconyįuad lived in a luxury apartment on the thirty fifth floor of an oceanfront highrise called Torre del Cielo. But constant arguments, excessive greed… well, who was he to say? If Fuad loved her and could put up with that, then it was up to him. Things that should rightfully end a marriage. There were things, in Omar’s view, that were deal-breakers. So the words had never escaped his tongue, not even once.Īfter all, it wasn’t like anyone was being beaten, or committing adultery. But Islam taught that it was evil to come between a husband and wife. A thousand times, Omar had been on the verge of telling Fuad to divorce the crazy drunkard and be done with it. Fuad spending money he didn’t have, Ivana never satisfied, the two of them fighting like jaguars and eagles. Fuad and Ivana had been married almost five years now, but it was always the same. Shaking his head in disgust, he put the pedal down and sped toward Costa del Este. “As I said, I am locked in the bathroom, so yes, but -” He was drowned out by another moan. “Have you changed it since last time?” Omar snapped.

Can you please come and calm her down? And disarm her? The door code is -” “I cannot,” Fuad said in a reproving tone, “call the police on my own wife. It’s merely a kitchen knife, so I cannot speak to the degree of its sharpness-” “I get the picture.” Approaching the on-ramp to the Corredor Sur, Omar ran one hand through his hair. “It’s true! But she imagines I was regarding a woman at the mall with prurient interest, but I assure you, Omar, I-” How is your day proceeding? All is well, I trust?” “No, mi amor, I know those are round fruits, I’m not saying that you are fat, I meant to say a sweet Cuban banana-”įuad finally heard him. “I apologize baby, you are not a werewolf, you are a luscious Caribbean mango, a juicy mamey sapote -” Por Dios, what was happening there?įuad’s voice became pleading. In the background, a moaning sound rose in pitch until it became a wail. Ivana screamed something that Omar could not understand. “Was that my Latin American Association of Epileptologists award? It better not have been, you Cuban werewolf!” There came in the background the sound of something being smashed or shattered. Fuad was shouting, not at him but at someone else, in passable but heavily accented Spanish: “Cálmate mi amor! Por favor!” He answered anyway, and knew instantly that this was a bad one. Hani and his mystery wife would arrive in an hour. Which was part of what friends were for, but Omar didn’t have time right now. But more often he called when he was perplexed, in a funk, or outright despairing over Ivana’s antics. Occasionally Fuad just wanted to catch up. He’d hardly driven a block when his phone began to play Bob Marley’s Could You be Loved, which was what he’d assigned to Fuad as a ringtone, because Fuad should be loved, but wasn’t. Once his family was settled at home, Omar showered and changed, prayed ‘Asr, then headed to the airport.
