MRS. BEN

Honey, diner is ready.

 BEN

Ignores her initially as he continues working with his laptop.

Are you blind? Can’t you see I’m busy?

 

 MRS. BEN

But honey, you’re a married man; you shouldn’t be bringing your work load home. I’m your wife; I have got feelings, you know?

 

BEN

Sometimes I wonder why I was so stupid in the first place to marry a woman like you, tell me what’s the joy of being married to you. For over a decade of marriage now, you can’t even conceive let alone give birth.

 

MRS. BEN

Honey, why are you talking to me like this? Am I God that gives kids? You know it’s not my fault. The doctor has certified me fertile.

 

BEN

You’re the one that has the problem not me. For your information some years ago before I married you more than five girls have had abortions for me, I’m healthy man and you know it.

 

…He angrily leaves the bed room.

 

MRS. BEN

God! Why have you forsaken me? Why have you decided to shut your ears to my cries and pleas… answer me Lord! …. I’m tired of being labeled barren… remember you word says ‘none shall be barren’ I’m your daughter. Please harken to my voice of supplication please Lord.
