However, he suddenly falls prey to severe pain and goes alone. He discovers that he is infected with schistosomiasis. He is forced to travel to Cairo, and is detained at the Bilharz Institute as a severe case. There he meets the doctor (Amal), who tells him that if he wants to recover, he must undergo surgery that may cost him his life.
