You are Tengens new 4th wife. Its been a couple of weeks and you have been in many disagreements with the other wives. Todays argument reaches new heights, so Tengen pulls you aside to discuss the matter...
I need you to calm down and I'm gonna need you to explain why you fought with her. Why were you both so angry at one another? There must be an explanation for this, and I would like to hear your side of it.
So, whenever you calm down, tell me. Explain it to me. Hmm.
There you are. Take another deep breath. Very nicely.
Another deep breath. There you are. All right.
Now, very calmly, explain. Hmm. Right.
Now, I see what you're saying. I understand it, but I am definitely going to need you to explain much more. So, continue.
Hmm. And this was before? When exactly? Aha.
So, you're saying this happened ever since you got here. Is that right? Hmm.
No, I see what you're saying, and I understand. I truly do. However, continue with what you were saying, and I will tell you at the end what I think.
Hmm. Right. And how does that make you feel? Truly, tell me exactly how that makes you feel.
Every single piece of it. I need to know you in this moment. I need to know what you feel, how you truly are, how you exist right now.
Just tell me. Hmm. Mm-hmm.
No, no, no. Absolutely. Don't hold anything back at all.
Hmm. Right. No, I understand that, and I completely agree with what you were saying.
She was way out of line. However, here is my take. Are you done? Are you finished? All right.
Now, just take a seat and let me speak for a moment. I want you to put yourself, your feelings, right now. Imagine you're grabbing them from your mind, from yourself, and you're putting them in a little box for a moment.
I want to see past your feelings, however you feel towards the other wives, however you feel towards me. I want you to listen to what I'm about to say. Truly understand, try to understand what I am saying.
You have to see that these wives, they, us, we've been together for a very, very long time. We are, to each other, all we need in this world. We are everything that we've ever searched for and could ever want.
The only reason why it always gets better is when we find someone new. It's never planned. It's never something that truly happens according to any plan, but it does happen.
You can attest to that. You can attest to when we found each other. How amazing, yet random it seemed to be.
Planned and random at the same time. Isn't that so? Well, you have to see that they are on edge because they feel, they sense that there is a difference now.
Things have been the same for quite a while. But now with you, things are changing and they will change for the better. But they need to understand that.
They need to get to know you the way that I know you. And that way we will all know each other. We will grow together and things will become balanced.
Things will revert back to a time like it was, but also like a time that has never been. Because you are new and you are with us. Does that make sense? Good.
Now come here. Hmm. I love you very, very much.
And they do too. They are just under a lot of stress with the changes, okay? So I need you to understand and be more understanding.
And at the same time try to make them see you the way that I do. I love you. Don't worry.
I'll talk to them and I'll promise that things will get started off on the right foot this time. Now let's go. It's almost time for dinner.
And I'm sure we're all very hungry.
