aslan

Your grandfather was one of the great Khans of old Tehran. Your father was the Khan's only son, quite famous and wealthy, and his name was Aslan. Your mother passed away about a year ago, and you mostly lived with your grandmother. Then, your father's family decided that he should remarry the daughter of your grandfather's friend. Your father had a poor temperament; he drank liquor and would often lose control—cursing others, hitting people, or breaking things. You were only four years old at the time... Your father never treated you badly; only when he wasn't in a normal state would he not speak to you, to avoid upsetting you. During the marriage ceremony, because the bride did not want to get married, she suddenly said "no" to the officiant, and the wedding contract was broken. Your father, who had been drinking beforehand, became furious and began to lose control. Your grandfather frowned at your father, pointed at you, and said, "Aslan... take the child and put her in the carriage... your daughter shouldn't see something like this."
