" The man with the killer eyes" written by: Samy Eissawi.(In English and Arabic)
Chapter (1) [ The mirror ]
The sky was full of heavy clouds and tha moon disappeared behind them .
This was the reason for the pyrameds region in Cairo to be so dark,
but only a little bit of light was coming out of the window of that room in which
"Mokhtar Fareed" was living.He was living in a Villa on El Haram street.
It was two o'clock or more after midnight.He was 24 years old .
He was sitting at his office in a trial to study, where he was in the last year of study at the" Faculty Of Science "
,department of chimistry, but there were always bad ideas attacking his mind
,so he was not able to understand what was he reading.
"Mokhtar" left his office to sleep a few minutes on that bed near his office, Perhaps
the sleep may visit his eyes. But what a pity, Those bad ideas in his mind were facing him every time, or it will
be better to say every moment.They're facing him to prevent him from getting a little bit
of rest. In fact , he failed two years during his study and despite that we may
consider him one of the genious people at all, that's because if someone
was having the same bad ideas like him ,hemay be a street man or a man who may ask the people for money to be able to face the difficult life,
or he may be an ignorent man with an empty mind of good information.
When "Mokhtar" was sleeping with open eyes, he looked at the celing
of his room .In fact, he was not seeing the celing , but he was there at the bad ideasin his mind.
He was seeing nothing but only those bad thoughts.Suddenly , He
got up from his bed to escape from those bad thoughts and sat down
at his office putting his right hand on his forehead and his elbow on the
surface of his office , and he seemed to be so angry with full
sadness. He seemed to be worried about something. . He opened the drawing of
his office and got his Agenda out of it , and wrote down the following
few words : " I hate my parents, that's because they hate me."
He looked at the mirror that was facing his office,then he movd
to it and stood exactly before it.Oh,his face on the mirror was
reddish white, his eyes were blue with great brightness which
will tell you that he is a very excellent man,his black hair
seemed to be tidy in a way that differes from someone having
the same problems like him.He was a smart man with a very
beautiful face ,he wasn't tall or short but half way between this
and that.He didn't see his face on the mirror. but he immagined
that his father, mother and his brother Aamer who was two years
younger than him inside the mirror grouping themselves in a spot
on the mirror ,but he was having no place among them.
He saw that each of his parents was having "Aamer" between
his ( or her) arms and kissing him , and in the same time as
if he found his father's hand was going out quickly and strongly
out of the mirror to beat him extreamely on his face. He walked
back quickly putting his arm on his face to defend him self
as if this beating was true. Then he turned his body and walked
towards the window to breathe some clear air from outside ,
that's to forget about what happened during his standing in front
of the mirror.But when he looked out of his window he found
that it was so dark but only the light which was comming out
of his room to draw bright geometrical shape on that spot of
the land facing the window. Around this shining spot , the
brightness goes down and down to be so dark at the far end of
this spot. " Mokhtar " closed the window and sat at his office
thinking about something. But suddenly without feeling from
him , his hand extended to the drawing of his office to get a paper
out of it .He wrote down on that paper some symbols and chimical
equations .That's because a good idea came suddenly to his
mind for making a chimical solution with particular properties.
chapter (2)
[ In Cafeteria ]
" Mokhtar" looked at his watch , he found himself so late . He got up quickly and opened the door. He touched his cat kindly with his right hand,then he fed it. He put on his clothes quickly , and in a hurry he took his way to his faculty. Thatwas after putting the paper containing the chimical symbols inside his Agenda . " Mokhtar" reached his faculty at ten to ten where the firstlesson was going to be finished. Therefore , he went to the " Cafeteria " to get his breakfast. He was setting alone at a lonly round table without looking at any of his fellow students, those students who were sitting at some round tables mocking him." Look at Mokhtar! " : Said one of his fellow students to another. The other student looked smiling at Mokhtar and said: Why? The first student said: Do you see that he is not sitting alone? The second said: How and there is no body around him but only him? The first said: He is sitting with the table and the chairs around him. Then this first one laughed loudly and the others followed him the same way. A third student said: I believed that he was one of the chairs around him.
At this moment, Mokhtar stood up with full anger, he grasped one of the chairs around him and carried it up to crash someone's head with it. But the waiter came to him quickly and said to him: What are you doing sir? ....do you want to distroy a chair that we paid a lot of money for it and it will cost you more? Mokhtar said with the same full anger where he was so nervous : But I wanted to distroy there heads. Mokhtar returned the chair back and said to the waiter: What is your account? The waiter said: 70 piasters . Mokhtar gave him one pound and left the Cafeteria, and while he was walking, he said to himself: Why the people are dealing with me this way? .... Who is the wrong one ... me or them? ... Who is having the bad manners ... me or them ?

الفصل الأول : المـــــــــــــــرآةالفصل الثانى : فــى الـكـافـيتيريـا
الـفصـل الثالث: فـى المـــعـــمـل
وداخل المعمل قام كل اثنين من الطلاب بعمل التجارب الموكل كل منهم بعملها، الا مختار فقد كان وحيدا حتى فى قيامه بأداء تجاربه المعملية، اذ أن عدد التلاميذ كان فرديا، وقد اختار كل طالب زميل له يرتاح اليه ويسعد بأداء التجارب معه، أما مختار فلم يختره أحدا من الزملاء، وقد حز ذلك فى نفسه كثيرا مثلما حز فى نفسه الكثير مما مر به طوال حياته الماضية، ولكنه وجد فى ذلك فرصة مواتية لأن يقوم بتجربته الخاصة به فى خلسة من الزملاء والمعيد الذى قام بتوضيح طريقة عمل التجارب لهم.الفصل الرابع: الـكــلـب الأســــود
وفى نحو التاسعة مساء جلس مختار الى مكتبه بالفيلا مستعرضا أمامه ما أحضر من أملاح ومحاليل، ثم اتجه الى غرفة مجاورة وأحضر دورقا ثم وضعه الى جوار المحاليل ثم أسرع الى خارج الفيلا مستدركا أنه نسى شراء محقن ، ومن أقرب صيدلية حصل على ما يريد ثم عاد الى مكتبه بالغرفة. وبعد تخفيف الأحماض المركزة وتكوين النسب المطلوبة من المحاليل والأملاح تم خلطها ببعضها فحدث فورانا أخذ يخفت رويدا رويدا الى أن تلاشى تماما ثم بدا المحلول الناتج ذو لون أحمر قانى. أمسك مختار بالمحقن وسحب بعضا من المحلول ثم نظر الى المحقن فى شىء من الخوف وقال محدثا نفسه: ماذا لو حقنت نفسى وفشلت التجربة ؟... تلك هى المرة الأولى التى ينتابنى الخوف فيها بهذه الطريقة... يستحسن أن أعيد النظر الى المعادلات التى قمت بوضعها. وقبل أن تمتد يده الى المفكرة سمع مواء القط الذى اقترب منه يلعق قدمه فقال محدثا القط وهو ممسكا به من طرفيه الأماميين ناظرا الى وجهه: حسنا أيها لقط... سوف أجرى التجربة عليك... فاذا نجحت ، لن يسعنى الا تقديم كل شكرى اليك عرفانا بالجميل... أما اذ فشلت التجربة ... فلا يكون منى حينذاك الا الأسف عليك... فلن أقصد ايذاءك. قبل مختار القط من رأسه ثم وضعه على المكتب وأخذ يربت عليه، وذلك باليد الخالية من المحقن، وباليد الأخرى حقنه بالفخذ مما أدى الى مواء القط مواء عاليا وكأنما يستنجد بمختار من مختار ... فلم يتوقع القط أن يحدث مثل ذلك منه أبدا. وبعد انتهاء الحقن تملص القط من مختار ثم قفز الى خارج النافذة بخفة الفهد وما أن لامست أطرافه الأرض حتى سابق الريح. لم يدم سباقه للريح، فقد كان فى انتظاره مفاجأة كبرى لم تخطر له على بال، انه كلب أسود من الكلاب الضخمة المسعورة. نبح الكلب نباحا تهتز له الأفئدة ، وتطاير من عينيه الشرر الذى ينم عن عدم العدول عن شر مستطير. وعند رؤية القط له تسمر فى الأرض ثم تقوس ظهره الى أعلى ثم نفث نفثات متتابعات فى وجه الكلب، ومن مميزات المحلول الذى حقن به القط أنه يبدأ عمله فى لحظات الانفعال والثورة النفسية، فتصلب جسم القط وكأنه جسما فولاذيا ثم انبعثت من عينيه اشعاعات شفافة بلا لون أو صوت ثم بدأت تلك الاشعاعات تتلون باللون الأبيض ثم امتزج بها اللون الأحمر ثم أخذت اشعاعات مجاورة اللون الأصفر الى أن أخذت جميع الاشعاعات كل ألوان الطيف ثم بدا لتلك الاشعاعات صوتا يماثل الصوت الصادر من قطعة من الحديد محماة لدرجة الاحمرار عند وضعها بالماء. اصطدمت تلك الاشعاعات بالكلب، وبعد أن هدأ القط توقفت عيناه عن اصدار الاشعاعات. كان القط فى غيبوبة تامة منذ بداية خروج الاشعاعات حتى اختفائها. لم تكن تلك الغيبوبة من النوع المعهود الذى يتبعه سقوط على الأرض ، ولكن القط فى تلك الحال يكون منقادا للاشعاعات التى تتجه من تلقاء نفسها نحو الكائن المعادى أو الذى يتسبب فى احداث انفعالات للقط. وعند عودة القط الى حالته الطبيعية وجد الكلب أمامه ففر هاربا الى باب الفيلا وقد أطلق مواءه المعهود وكأنما ينادى على مختار ليفتح له. احتضن مختار القط وقبله وذهل لهذا المشهد الغريب الذى لم يستغرق ثوان ثم خرج الى حيث يقف الكلب ثم قال فى نفسه: عجبا... لماذا يقف الكلب فى مكانه هكذا دون حراك ؟ تقدم مختار نحو الكلب ثم مسه بيده، فاذا بالكلب يهوى الى الأرض وقد تهشم جسده الى قطع صغيرة. أمسك مختار واحدة من تلك القطع فاذا بها متفحمة تماما، فعرف بذلك خطورة المحلول ، وسعد بنجاح التجربة.
