Mother of George Page #2
- Good night, Karen.
But I need to see him.
I can, um,
put you on a waiting list.
I cannot wait.
I have to see him now.
- I understand.
- No, you don't understand.
It's been 18 months.
No baby.
Have you had any treatments?
My mother-in-law's aloe
and, uh, some tea.
Look. If you like, I can sit down
with you and your husband and...
My husband?
Hold on.
- What the hell is this?
- Uh-uh! Come on now.
What the f*** are you doing?
Huh?
Uh-uh!
Simple, eh? Simple.
- AYO.
- Where were you today?
- Is everything all right?
- Fine.
We talk later.
I'll be home later.
We talk. Okay?
I went to the doctor today.
What doctor?
Fertility specialist.
Sade knows him.
Sade?
What is this, her business?
He can help us, Ayo.
She should get out of it.
Get her own husband.
The doctor can help us.
He can run tests... everything.
On me.
And you.
More than likely it is me.
We can't afford this.
We can take out a loan.
Or ask my mother for some money.
I'm tired.
What do you mean you're...
- What's this?
- Money, Ayo.
Money I earned.
I got a job. Cleaning.
No wife of mine needs to clean.
No. We can use the money.
Every day I work hard so
you won't have to.
It is a way to have what we want.
With what? $200, $300?
It's 500...
and 47.
It get us nothing!
Didn't you see the prices
the doctor gave you?
It can help us, Ayo!
Please!
Come.
You know what will help?
Please, trust me.
But why?
Why is it always the woman?
Yeah.
I don't understand why
you don't just tell him.
And have him and my mom
down my throat?
They're not going to be
down your throat.
Babe, this is the one thing
in my life that...
he's not involved in.
And I'd like to keep it that way.
Okay.
Watch your step.
Watch your step. Watch your step.
Watch your step.
All right. Last stop,
everybody. Pass up a fin.
Thanks.
Thanks. Fin, fin.
- Last stop.
- Okay.
Okay.
Now, do you know Psalm 121?
- Yeah.
- You need to recite it every day.
- Okay.
- It'll be good for you.
- Okay.
- Go ahead.
Go ahead. You'll be fine.
- You will be fine.
- Thank you.
Take this with you.
- Go ahead.
- Thank you.
You know how men are back home.
He is not home.
You know, I have to go.
Nike.
I have friends... who have adopted.
I want it to be from me.
How?
How, if he will not go
to the doctor?
Amen.
Amen.
Amen.
Amen.
Amen.
As it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread...
and forgive us all our trespasses...
trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation...
but deliver us from all evil.
