If Only Adults Knew How To Behave

Epilogue

Zainab's POV:

It's quite funny how we humans can get so affected by unimportant things unconsciously. We tend to expect a lot. If we stop doing that I might say we can surely solve ninety percent of our problems without even doing anything.

I always thought getting rid of my family will give me happiness but I was wrong. I indeed got some peace while I was away from them but I never stopped thinking about them. They were not good to me but still, I wanted them to change. When I stopped praying for them to be better I tried to focus on my success which I did gain but it was only possible after I cleared things up with my family. You can just not erase them from your life and you should not. I know I have no right to say this as you know how I'm not staying in touch with my parents but it is they who don't want to keep in contact with me. Trust me I'm happy about it. They are going to stay the same. As selfish and emotionless as they have been.

If only adults knew how to behave, our lives could have been much easier. To break the chain we might do something about these foul traditions and beliefs that make the heart of society. We can just transplant another one. Replace it with a better and more sensible one I guess.

I wish to live a calm and happy life like this with my husband and kids. When there come hard times we face them together. We celebrate the little happy moments. I want o to be a good parent. A good mother to my daughter and son. Treat them equally the way they are supposed to be. I'm not going to lie I'm indeed biased toward my daughter but can I help it? She is my first child of course I'm going to favor her cause the younger one has his dad defending him. We are a  family of four and how many more are going to be added who knows but one thing I know is we are a better family. Better than I and Faris ever imagined to have.

Now mind if you excuse me I have to make my daughter's hair. She hates it when I'm zoned out while I make her braids. She will tell her dad and I will get punished. I don't want to miss out on the dessert. It's my favorite part of our family dinner night because we get to share it and taste all the flavors. Allah Hafiz (may God protect).

Keep supporting me in the future too. More work is coming soon. But I'll let you know in advance that I'm hoping to explore new genres. Make sure to vote on this chapter. If you have read this book then do read my first book 'Am I good enough?' I'm sure y'all will like that one too. (Do remember English is not my first language 😊)
