THE FAMILY MATTER

PART - 2

Mr. Noah told her to go on. That day, both of them were in their best mood to tell jokes. However, his wife repeated what she had said before that she had a very important thing to tell him and that she would not want anyone else to hear about the matter.

Mr. Noah was also a sunny man. He told her to go on with her story and that he was listening to her. The woman started. She told him that she had a dream last night while she was sleeping. Her husband asked her what about the dream. She told him then.

After her husband had heard everything she said, he told her that he was happy about the dream. Although the man could not interpret the meaning of the dream directly; he told her that it was a good one. They continued with their discussion.

While both of them were still talking, their last child suddenly woke up from where she had been sleeping before. She walked up to them and started crying. Her mother called her immediately. She asked her why she was crying and she told her that she was hungry. She then told her to stop crying and that she was going to feed her.

Just then, the woman stood up and went into her kitchen to bring the food to her baby. When she came back, her husband told her to prepare his favorite food and that he was going to meet a fellow who owed him money. She told him that she didn't have any money to prepare the food.

Her husband told her where she would collect money to prepare the food. While Mr. Noah was about to go, the woman met him in their sitting room. She told him to change his dress, and that the dress did not suit him. Just then, she quickly went in and brought other clothes to him.

He told her that he wanted to wear those clothes to a meeting tomorrow. The woman told him not to worry that she would wash it when he returned. She went close to him and buttoned his shirt. Jokingly, her husband told her to take it easy before she touched another part. They laughed. Mr. Noah was happy. Before he left, he gave her another money; telling her to prepare a very delicious meal and that he would be back soon.

However, when Mr. Noah got to his friend's place, they greeted each other in their language. The man immediately offered him a seat. Mr. Noah asked him what about his family and he immediately told him that God is great. The man asked him what about his own, and he told him that he was thanking God, of course.

After some time, Mr. Noah told him that he had come to collect his money since he had not heard from him since. Instantly, the man stood up and positioned his chair to the right place.

He told him not to be offended and that he was even thinking of how to reach his place before. He stood up again and went into the inner room of his house where he used to keep his main property to get him the money.

When he came back, he told Mr. Noah that he'd got his money since, but he never had a chance to reach his place. After he'd given him the money, he thanked him so much for his patience and generosity. Mr. Noah thanked him too, and started counting the money.

After he had counted it, he told the man that what he counted was different from what he lent him. The man told him yes that he was the one that doubled the money. He told Mr. Noah that there is a wise saying that one good turn deserves another.

He told him that he had decided to double the money because he loved how he treated him the other day when he did not have. In addition, he told Mr. Noah that the business he borrowed the money b/4 eventually favored him and for that reason, he had decided to double it in happiness.

Mr. Noah was happy. He took the one he lent him before and gave him the other. The man rejected the money. He told Mr. Noah not to worry and that he did it with happiness. Mr. Noah then collected the money and thanked him so much. Again, the man told him that he could not thank him enough for the help he gave him the other day. Their discussion continued.
