Description

Najib: (Lying down on the seat) Oh, my God… I’m gone, my youth is wasted!

Sami: Listen, Najib… If you’re just trying to make a quick buck because you want a riyal or half a riyal, just tell me, don’t waste my time.

Najib: It’s not about money… I’m telling you, I’m dead. Do I have to be buried in the cemetery next door just to be alive?

Sami: So what’s the point now?

Najib: The point is, I’ve been shot.

Sami: (In surprise) Shot?

Najib: I was shot in front of Groppi’s.

Sami: Oh my God! What are you saying? Seriously, Najib? Why have you been quiet all morning? Where? (Calling out) Hey, Awadain! The medic isn’t here. You need an ambulance right now.

Najib: Yes? Help me!

Sami: (Approaches him and takes off his clothes) Quickly find the wound! Where did the bullet go?

Najib: (Points to his heart) Here!

Sami: (In astonishment) Impossible!

Najib: (Points emphatically to his heart) I’m telling you, here!

Sami: Unbelievable! You clearly have no idea about medicine at all.

Najib: I don’t care about medicine. As someone who’s been shot, I’m telling you it’s lodged here. Believe it or not, it’s up to you.

Sami: This is my heart, you fool! A bullet in my heart and I’m still alive? You want to drive away my meager medical knowledge, the only thing I can do for a living!

Najib: And who told you I’m still alive?

Sami: What are you saying?

Najib: Report me dead right now, since you’re a doctor!

Sami: The bullet must have gone into your brain!

Najib: The bullet is right here in my heart.

Sami: (Takes Naguib’s pulse) There’s absolutely nothing wrong with you… not a drop of blood… your pulse is normal… your heart is fine…

Naguib: My heart is fine… fine, you idiot… examine me properly… do you see me as the Naguib of this morning? I’ve been a different person, Sami, for the past seven minutes… I’ve been in another world for the past seven minutes…

Sami: (Looks at Naguib for a moment) You’re in love!

Naguib: For the first time in my life…

Sami: Every time you say it’s the first time in your life…

Naguib: Never… just this time… because the bullet is here…
