The disappointment

The Thrilling Adventure

An excerpt

Major Yaniv reached his villa at the western outskirts of town, and had to get off the car and open his yard's gate with his own hands; his zabania (guard & gardener) was on leave in Dugu, the nearest village to Jijiga. He could not blame him or his maid for their absence, as he has told them to be back at work on Monday morning. He was sure that he will spend the weekend in Addis, and he will come to pack his things, pay them their salaries and take leave of his two loyal servants.

He felt terribly humiliated, he had to get in his car and drive inside his small yard; and get off again to shut his yard's gate, and only then he was free to unlock his front door and enter his empty villa.

What am I going to do now? He wondered as he pulled a can of beer from the fridge in his kitchen, and drank it straight from the can. I'd better call the brigade headquarters in Harrar, and ask for an urgent meeting with the brigade commander… No I'd better drive to Harrar right away, and make the call from one of the joints over there. It's almost two hours drive… He reminded himself in a moment of reasonable thinking. He glimpsed at his wristwatch, the time was one thirty pm.

I'd better set off and if I won't find Colonel Sium or his deputy, I'll leave the colonel a note with the officer on duty. He decided with some hesitation and went to the bathroom to wash his hands and face, to refresh himself before the long ride to Harrar. He had again to drive the few yards to his villa's gate, and repeat the humiliating procedure, which he had to pass just a short time earlier. He cursed Roghel under his breath, and drove carefully up to route number ten; as he hit it he stepped hard on the accelerator and drove westward to his destination, Harrar.  

Driving all alone on the narrow and empty road, he was assaulted with self pity feelings. I'll never forgive him for exploiting me as if I'm his blind tool, just to frustrate Josh and for using me as his pimp… I'd to wait three long hours in the lobby last night up to one pm, till he satisfied his urges with some local teenager.

He took a breath of air into his lungs, to get over his depressive mood, while seeing in his mind's eye the young female coming out of the same elevator that he was to enter, on his way back to his room; and that unpleasant encounter occurred as soon as Roghel appeared in the lobby.

And I've to replace that sniveling youth, which Roghel my supposedly benefactor assigned that young nobody to a job slot of a lieutenant colonel… Well someone else in my shoes would have committed suicide! Yaniv consoled himself as he reached the outskirts of Harrar.
