Author's POV💕

"Maryam you really need to think about yourself and your kids before coming to this conclusion" Summaya said

"Yeah, you have to be considerate, yes I know your hurt but don't you trust your husband, he went out of his way to fight multiple times with his mother and that woman for you and you want to leave him now all cause of a set up" Manal said

"Maryam, I don't know what you're going through, I also can't imagine what I'll do if I see my husband being intimate with another woman but then I trust him and I know he wouldn't do something like that to me, jumping to the conclusion of divorce is extreme especially with the fact that kids are involved, I think you should think about it again, Aliyu can't live without you his literally depressed cause you wouldn't speak to him and you want to leave him, Maryam please think about this carefully you cannot divorce Aliyu, he'll literally become a living dead" Farida said upset

"You girls don't-" Maryam was about to say in defense as Aiza cuts her off

"Aunty Maryam, you heard what your dad said, you heard what my dad said and I know you trust them both but seriously don't you trust your husband, do you know how many times he fought with mum cause of you, his severed all ties with her cause she was always causing problems for you and now you want to leave him after she's set him up, isn't that what she wants, do you want her to win against you two, don't you think about Aliyu, isn't this the time you need each other the most" Aiza said stopping for a moment

"You know what, sometimes I feel you don't deserve Aliyu, he loves you more than you love him, he trusts and respect you and all your decisions and everything that makes you happy but when it comes to you, you never do the same, back then when he had that heart disease he needed you but you left him and now his probably traumatized and hurt cause he was raped and here you are saying you want to divorce him, how do you think his going to react once he hears this?" Aiza said again really upset

"Aiza calm down, you can't speak to her that way she's also hurt" Iman said to her sister before turning to face Maryam

"Aunty Maryam, Aliyu hasn't eaten since you got admitted to this hospital cause he kept thinking and worrying about you, Aliyu hasn't smiled or played with the kids cause knowing that you're here and hurt was denying his every right of being happy, Aliyu hasn't spoken to anyone since cause you wouldn't speak to him, he hasn't left this hospital since you got admitted cause he knows you're here and he doesn't want to leave you, he hasn't stopped cursing himself since for being misled into that trap, he feels more guilty knowing that your hurt than angry about the fact he was being taken advantage of, you know Aliyu's entire world revolves around you, how will you feel knowing his innocent but yet you still punished him for something he had no idea of?" Iman added

"Maryam, have you thought of your kids, they're now grown old enough to know who their father was, what would you tell them if they asked you why you separated them from their father, have you thought of the impact it'll have on them especially if they grow old enough to understand the reason you divorced their dad, do you think they'll be happy?" Summaya said in a calm tone

"Maryam think about this again, you're making a big decision regarding your life which will not only affect you but your kids and Aliyu as well, you're splitting the family apart, it's not a good idea, you'll end up regretting it later and it might be too late so please reconsider your decision now that Aliyu doesn't know yet" Manal said to Maryam

"Are you all done?" Maryam asked in a low tone as they all remained silent

"I'm glad you all had something to say regarding my decision, I understand your concern and I know very well what I'm doing, I thought about it carefully, I thought about myself and my children, I'll never ever look at Aliyu the same way again and I won't be able to forget any of it, I need a break from him and this marriage and it'll never work out at the end so I'm going to leave" she said
