In one of the villages in the countryside of Egypt, there was a very poor, miserable girl who lived with her cruel-hearted stepmother. After the mother died and the father married another woman, she did not know mercy in her heart. The woman took revenge on her and made her do all the housework since she was a little girl. So she left her school and the girl was feeling very upset and sad.
She wished to buy some things for girls like her sister from her father, but her stepmother refused to buy things for her. The girl would go to her aunt, whom she loves, and complain about the ill-treatment that was happening to her.
Her cousin was madly in love with her and wanted to marry her. The young man was educated and had a good position, but the mother’s wife did not want the girl to get married so that she would continue to serve her. She had a son who was younger than the girl, and she wanted the young man to marry her because he worked in a good job, had a prestigious position and was wealthy. She did not know that the young man had only seen the girl in front of his eyes since he was young.
The young man proposed to the girl's father to propose to her, but the stepmother refused and made the father refuse persistently, telling him that he was not suitable for the girl. The father refused, and the girl was very sad because she wanted to get rid of her hard-hearted stepmother, and she was doing a lot of work every day.
The girl's little sister was kind-hearted and loved her sister very much. She wanted to help her sister, so she said to her: Go, sister, to your aunt and marry whomever you love and live with your aunt with your cousin, and leave this hell, and I will try to convince my father. The girl was afraid at first, but in the face of his wife's torture... The father insulted her and was cruel and beat her severely, and here the girl decided to go to her aunt and live there and marry her cousin, who loves her madly. She's tired of this life she was living.
The girl went at night to run away to her aunt's house with the help of her sister, and after that she married her cousin, who attended the official and was ready to rejoice with the help of the sister, and he was very dear and she loved him too, and when the father learned what his daughter had done, he quickly went to see his daughter and what she had done. He went to her aunt and wanted to take His daughter, but the aunt rejected her and her son and told him that she was her daughter-in-law and would never allow him to harm her.
The aunt started screaming at the father, saying, “Fear God. You have tortured your daughter a lot, and you are satisfied with what your wife is doing to her. What do you want from her? Leave her to someone who loves her and will protect her and take care of her. Do not be hard-hearted.” The father went and returned to his home, thinking about his daughter’s aunt’s words while he was sad. He returned home and found His wife was furious and angry, and she said in anger, why did you not return the girl, man? He said to her, “I married her cousin,” and here her anger increased. She ask him, “Why did he leave her? You must bring her back. How can you get married without your knowledge? Do you call yourself a man? You must kill the girl, bury her, and get rid of her scandal.”
