هروب

بقلم: ولاء قواسمة

ترجمها إلى الإنجليزية عبد اللطيف غسري

 

 صرخت جيوبُه قهراً، حطَّمت مجدافَه نظراتُ أطفالِه المنكسرة الهاربة من عيون الآخرين، اختفت كوابيسُ نومه، تصدرت واقعَه؛ لَمَعَتْ في ذهنه فكرة إنهاء حياته، وعندما نامت أسرتُه، فتح جرةَ الغازِ، استلقى بجانبها، وفي الصباح، تذكر أن الجرةَ فارغةٌ منذ شهور.

Escape

A very short story by Walaa Qwasmeh

Translated from Arabic by ABDELLATIF RHESRI

 

His pockets screamed out of oppression. His paddles were broken by his Kids' wretched gazes evasively Moving away from the looks of others. His nightmares were gone, but took over his real life. The idea of putting an to his life glittered in his mind. Then, while his family were deep asleep, he opened the gas jar. He lay down beside it. In the early morning of the following day, he remembered that the jar had been empty for months.
