Farouk's POV
Two years later.
It's been two years and I was fed up.I loved her but this was too much.I asked for a wife not a patient, and now I had turned into a patient instead of a husband.
She looked so skinny and sick like
She wasn't the woman I met years ago.Fine I signed up for this,but I didn't know it was going to be this miserable.
She was sucking the life out of me.All I wanted was a traditional housewife not a sick and dieing one.This is on me,I was so stupid to think that I would be able to stay and manage.
I was so wrong and now my life is as miserable as hers.I came to a family function, obviously I didn't bring her.
She was even too Sick to come.
Everyone was happy at the event while I was miserable until I saw one of my sister's friends,abiba.
She was very beautiful.If I were to compare her to muina now,abiba was ten times prettier.
Muina would have been prettier in the past but now she was the ugliest woman I had ever saw.
Abiba seemed to notice me,as she started blushing.I approached her and we stared talking.
Six months in,we fell inlove.
Abiba:why don't we get married?
Farouk:I have a wife remember?
Abiba:so what, you can marry up to four.
Farouk:so you are comfortable sharing me then
Abiba:no am not, she is going to die anyway,so why not.
Farouk: I can't do that to her
Abiba:you still love her, don't you?
Farouk:no I love you,but I can't help but feel bad for her, come on,the doctors said she can barely make it to three years.Its been two years ,six months,she can die at anytime.
