I was really shocked by Ali’s behavior — that he thought this way about me, when I always considered him like a brother. I immediately left the university, and all the way home, I kept thinking about how awful he was. I couldn’t think of anything else.

When I reached home, my father was also there. Everyone asked me why I had come back so early from university. I lied and said that we didn’t have class today — after all, I couldn’t tell them the truth. I just went to my room and slept, trying to forget everything.

I couldn’t even cry over it.

When I woke up, Ali and my cousins had already returned. After lunch, I went back to my room, and I didn’t even eat dinner that night — maybe because I knew Ali would be outside. Maybe I was overreacting about the whole thing.

In the morning, I went to the kitchen to help Mom and was trying to make eggs, though I didn’t really know how. Ali came in and asked, “Aren’t you going to answer me?”
I stayed silent.
He said, “If you don’t answer, I’ll burn my hand on this hot pan.”
I replied, “Do it happily.”

And he actually placed his hand on the pan. The stove was on low, and as angry as I was at him, I turned the flame up and walked out.

I thought as soon as I stepped out, he would pull his hand away — but even after two minutes, he didn’t come out.

I got scared and went back inside. When I saw his hand, it was bleeding, and the skin had peeled off due to the burn. He looked at me and gave a faint smile, and there were tears in his eyes — from the pain.

I pulled his hand away from the pan, but it was in such a bad condition that I couldn’t bear to look at it.

I slapped him across the face and shouted, “What kind of stupidity is this?! Are you crazy?!”
He replied, “Yes, I’m completely crazy… crazy about you.”

I poured cold water over his hand, but seeing the condition of his hand… I fainted right there.
