Smooth translation:
Well, I was going to your home, and I saw a man who was distressed. He said,
confusedly, "Please, help me get to my house." 

I said to him, "I should help." So, I went with him into that house. I saw,
surprisingly, the man's wife. She was very heavy with child, and I realized that
his wife was the whole problem.
