historical fiction story "the temptation" (part 1)

intro. sometimes a French video is simply the story of a married woman having an affair- a term  as if it is okay for a woman to sleep with a man besides her husband... while when the husband "cheats" it is called cheating on his wife... and even without the marriage commitment... cheating on his girlfriend as if he is the bad one... while she only had an "affair"... this culture reverses the traditional approach that a married woman can only sleep with her husband... logical because a woman wants coitus less often than a man therefore the rare occurrence must only be with her husband. this problem severe anuf to understandably demand the death penalty in the bible... Leviticus.  this is known by many married men experience the wife pushes him away... so very severe if the rare coitus is with a different man. in contrast to the holy fore-fathers Jacob who not only had 4 wives but actualy described in bible as 2 wives and 2 maidens which he had children with- outside of marriage and he was still holy Jacob....
well in Christianity this was changed to "equality" marriage means both commit only coitus with each other.  and not with any other person.... which leads to the words of "quagmire in series named family guy" on this topic. well said mr. glen.
anyway non-Christians never commited to that limitation unless it is specified in the contract called "pre-nup".--which is the background to this story of temptation
the history part:
a married couple traveled from Jerusalem, Israel to new York city u.s. where the ultra-orthodox husband was tempted to act like the holy Solomon, david and Jacob.

 meet: efrim [fictional name yet biblical name "afrim"] an ultra-orthodox jewish man. efrim was married to "amy" fake name. as usual efrim, went to the skul to study the books of the rabbis. after the lunch break, when he ate chicken and cucumber salad, and after four more hours of study, he returned home to the rented apartment in Jerusalem.
efrim put the key in the lock and turned to unlock the door. he entered and saw his wife amy chatting on the phone and did not worry about the phone bill because he was not earning the money which was wasted on all that hot air. in Jerusalem the phone plan was based on minutes of talking which seems fair as long as the price per minute is competitive and "not higher than normal like one company having monopoly." in contrast to plans with a minimum fee even if you do not use the service is disgusting theft because did not use the service. he did worry "was amy happy to see him?"
efrim was married to a wife. ae wife. [yes the word "ae" is a real English word in the book dictionary considered respectable called merriam webster] meaning something alone. "ay, a man should ay marry ae wife"  means "I=yes, a man should always marry ae wife" one alone. also correctly spelled with an additional letter "e" like "aye, a man should aye marry ane wife" the sme idea in the same language english.
he often imagined not ae wife because this wife almost always pushed him away from intercourse when he wanted to sleep with her. he cnsidered if he had two wives, then the rare occasion with each would match his frequency. he would get "some from each" and also "get some" from each. in fact the jealousy could cause competition each wife wanting to show they loved me- so they would both offer coitus more often than one frigid woman when she feels she has the monopoly on coitus.
efrim stepped inside and turned back, from habit and locked the door behind himself. he walked passed her to the table in the dining room and saw that it was bare.
he went back into the kitchen to grab plates and spoons for dinner. alas! ultra-orthodox jews must have separate dishes one set for chicken and another set for milk... and baffled efrim did not know which set to use for the table.
meanwhile amy was yammering on the phone with "much ado". just then amy "aahed" [yes that is the correct spelling jesus christ !] a long ah. efrim was annoyed that amy was not finishing her yammering on the phone. all these minutes could be time for "us" because they were apart all day. why was she not showing that she was happy to see him? and very much blab so much hot air could fill those travel-balloons. not just a balloon,  he imagined a blimp...
so he said "amy, please finish the talk". he hated that every day she would aah.
amy changed her tone to annoyed and rapidly concluded "my needy man-child wants me to serve him dinner now. yes everything is prepared as we planned- bye mom." and finally she hung the phone on the device attached to the wall- this is the source of the idiom "hung up" now used for pressing the button to end a phone connection "hanging up" because in the past we would literaly hang the device-part up. hanging from the other part causing the lever to switch off the phone connection.
amy first said "welcome home honey", in the tone showing that she was obligated to say it. she glanced at the table. efrim replied with the apt yet old-fashioned greeting "ave".
suddenly "AHA" she accused "when I do not set the table you are just a lazy ai [a certain type of sloth] "my ma was right about you that you are as lazy as a group of ais."
part 2 another argument.
efrim replied calmly "actually I am not certain which dishes to use... the dairy or the meat?"
"yu did not ask" amy accused. efrim was dragged into the battle: "because you were still yammering on the phone; so I waited a bit" efrim defended.--"you never give me any aid around here" she exaggerated, adding "you act like you are infected by ate [ah-ti the destructive force].
typical of men, efrim switched the topic back to planning. "so which dishes should I use?"
"you choose" she answered. efrim responded: "it depends which dinner we are having"--"AHA" she announced triumphantly "you just assume I will cook for you"--"for us?" efrim tried to correct her.
"well I am fed up with being your maid. at your age you should help me"--"what do you expect? I am studying all day long. so I am not at home."--"neither was I"--"you arrived home before me"--"so what"--so you finish work at 5, travel here by 6 and had an hour to prepare before I arrived."--"I was talking with my mom"
good answer! family is important not just gab and prattle... but still...efrim pressed on: "for a whole hour?? unproductive??"--a shocked silence then efrim continued "why do you blab so much?"--"that is it! no dinner for you!"--relax! I ate chicken, so you are only hurting yourself. if you want we can make supper together.--CHICKEN, she hollered in frustration, "you had chicken !! all I ate today was bread.--"alone? you could add jam or butter"--too much sugar in jam and too much fat in butter--we need some sugar for energy so a bit is fine--well we don't have any fruit jam--okay still you could put a bit of butter... it even has vitamin "a" which is critical to eat.--no! too much fat--what about lunch?--also an empty sanwij… while you eat CHICKEN" she responded in horror. efrim tried to offer what she lacked, "I can bake some chicken for you too--oh yeah?? then you get it twice!--there is just no pleasing you today. but I do not mind making dinner today--oh yeah?? what will you prepare?-"watch me"
efrim opened the frij and looked for tomato paste. there it was. next he found the sliced cheese. then he opened the bag of sliced bread and spread some paste on it. "you call that dinner??" amy whined. "I wish there was a pill for when your period comes each month--this has nothing to do with my bleeding today this has a real cause--I bet you would be more cooperative--so now it is my fault?? look at you making a tomato samij, that is not food--"pizza is"--no! pizza is not a meal--it has protein in the cheese and vejdabl in the paste. it feels filling and tastes good"--you have simple pizza I want beef--actually you do need to replace iron if you are bleeding. I should go buy some liver for you--I don't want it. now go to your room without dinner."
efrim ignored her and lay a slice of cheese on the paste on bread slice and then lay the pizza in the small oven.
amy glared and finally complained "you are only making one?--you said you don't want pizza--you are so selfish like a hairy ape.--I am hairy" efrim smiled tugging his beard with a smile--she continued the tirade, "oh and you expect me to shave my legs??--nope but--but what?--instead of trying the whole area along both legs [many square centimeters of area] how about trimming just between your legs--what??--I mean the area is much smaller than all around both legs. you could use our hair-cut machine--stop telling me what to do." she sobbed and tears poured from her eyes.
efrim had no good answer to that so he changed the topic, "what did your mom say--that she wants us to fly to America for her nebbors wedding--she wants?--yes she will pay our plane tickets--sounds like happy news" responded efrim as he watched the cheese melt in the oven.
so that was the news of wedding... and a few weeks later amy and efrim were walking out of the airport in new york. who cares if it was "lagaurdia" or Newark or whichever.
