Author's name: Ibrahim Aslandar Publisher: Al-Shorouk for Publishing and Distribution Year of publication: 2007 Literary classification: Short story collection Brief about the book: (...) The second time I encountered that "ebony pen," was in one of the schools I attended. It was with one of the students in the class. He kept it in his closed drawer. And when he unlocked the drawer with the key and took out the pen, I would move from my place and join him with some of the boys, watch him, and ask him to let me hold it and examine it. One day, the boy came and found the drawer broken and the pen missing. I didn't notice what happened, except that I saw the boys sitting in front of me on the right side of the classroom, turning towards me and whispering. When the teacher entered, the boy stood up and accused me of taking the pen, citing his classmates who said I was very interested in it, and another said I was indeed the only one who "wanted it." The teacher asked me to stand. I don't remember speaking. What I remember is tears pouring from my eyes while I was standing, and I didn't have a tissue, so I dried my eyes and nose in my shirt sleeve. The teacher, who was wearing a turban and a jubbah, shouted: "Ekh. May God make you sick," and pointed his hand towards the door: "Get out." I don't remember exactly, but I think I walked to the front of the classroom and ran. Maybe I am still running even now.
