I'm sorry about your pain sir. I hope you get better soon and keep writing too.
Now, this is an unbelievable turn of events. Seeing that this talkative barber had once been a quiet one who respected himself and doesn't blurt out anyhow unless questioned.
I wonder what made him change that caused the young to be crippled because he was trying to run off from the mob in his lover's house.
Maybe, it had something to do with working in the palace of the Caliph. And to think that all his brothers paid dearly for not being tight-lip. I guess his own punishment for beginning to talk too much was inflicted on others instead of directly on him as it happens to his brothers.
Well, let's wait and see what changed him to talkative.
