Abesheet,
Ayyy….me was trying to read ur e-novel. But can’t do it on PC, my eyes are not good( I have used them too much for ‘ Kureja’ in schools…+ looking at Ch***,
anyhow, my sister,is that possible to download it?( by a link or something?). let me try to read it after printing.
‘Hayilegna mood lay negn’…Yigermishal….’ Beka Yager Anbabi lihun eski.’….
‘Hule Beamet Hulete Anbabi yemehon abaze alebign’…Lol
……….Don’t worry I will try not to show it to my friends as if I wrote it…..Ha ha well that would be a sign for ‘Simintegnaw shi’, If I could write such stuff.
Anyways, Berchi…..Berchi please!!
BTW in ur youtube channel, I saw one video,
are u the one taking the vid of a graduated girl…just to know…
‘Zare kimeyalehu…Yibekagnal….kezi belay…ho ho’

Nice nick yeselalewa 😉 .
Well.. when i entitled it “the space between” i was planning to make all the story a fantacy on Yeti’s side. You know, she and Wasse separated, she was alone, had too many things she needed to deal with and didn’t, so she became a psycho. Sort of. And, ofcourse, to show the stories we tell are only half truths, etcetra.
Queueing theory felt so right. Isn’t that what a woman is supposed to do once she reached her early 20’s. Wait for a husband? If you have stood in a queue at the Addis Ababa University, beMizgeba qen, you’d understand how our lives resemble standing in a queue so much.
