Maria Saunder's POV (2 months ago)
Friday
      I have so many questions inside of me that hasn't been answered yet. Everything seems to create a problem. He is the father of my children. In a gigantic world full of billions of people, why was I given such multiple problems? But I need to stay strong for my children. I don't know if I could even trust him any longer. This needs to go to an end. But, I'm not sure if I could raise both my children on my own, especially in this state. We scarcely even have enough cash to pay bills and my children, Jen and Cam's tuition fee!

        I need to act strong and brave. My children see me as their sturdy and dauntless mother which is why I have to get this straight. I've had enough. I know the risk that I'm about to do and I'm not sure if my children are gonna be happy about this-- I'm gonna get a divorce with my husband, Micheal. I am sick of his actions and I know he already superseded us with someone who thinks is more inferior. Somebody who is rich, beautiful and smart. Someone who isn't comaparable to me. A woman who is narrowly independent, a woman who has scars, and a woman who didn't finish college.

Monday
I made my decision and whatever it is, that decision is final. No regrets whatsoever. I asked for a divorce and I convinced him. He asked to get the kids but I didn't even let him finish. I already made sacrifices for him and I am not gonna be giving up all my hardwork to him. I raised them, I keep them. But the thing is, they don't know anything about the divorce and neither do they know anything about his new family.
