Synopsis

The uncle of the young narrator enters his house unexpectedly. In order to offer him some refreshments, he goes to bring a bottle of wine.

Through the crevice of the wall which happens to be there, he sees an ethereal girl offering a lotus flower to an old man who bursts into a hair-raising laughter.

Surprisingly, this is exactly the picture he keeps drawing on pen cases as a calling. He is then jolted into realities. The thought of the old man gradually begins to loom over his life and sow the seed of anxiety.



The narrator embarks on a journey in search of the ethereal girl and the old man. His journey, however, takes him into a study of history and myths.

The narrator comes back and realizes that his uncle has left, leaving the door agape like the mouth of a dead man.

Desperately he goes out to look for the ethereal girl. But upon returning he finds the girl sitting on the front stairs. -- Written by Ali Salami
