Incident 2: Burning of the Old Ladys house Characters involved: Asraf & Azreen Relation: After the death of his grandmother, Asraf was influenced by the villagers that it was all the Old Ladys doing and thus taking matters into his own hands. Him and a group of men went to the Old Ladys house for a confrontation. Azreen arrives at the scene and tries to stop Asraf from battering down the Old Ladys door but fails. Fell to the ground, Azreen grabs a spade and stabbed Asrafs feet causing him to fall down and dropping the torch he was carrying, thus setting the house on fire.

In this incident, not only Asraf caused the death of an elderly woman but he too, jeopardises Azreens life. All because of emotions due to his grandmothers passing.

Lesson learnt: When confronting a problem or any scenarios, always keep calm and think before making any decisions because in a later life you might regret it.
