Maryam's POV

I walked into the house and saw everywhere so quiet. I tried to walk towards mom's room when I heard Kareemah's voice "Maryam, is that you?"

I turned slowly and she wide her eyes. "it's really you! Oh my God! It's you! You came back to us!". She squealed as she hug me tightly.

I hug her back and we both stayed there for about five minute. I really missed her a lot.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry that I left without letting any of you know...I'm truly sorry". I said as we break the hug.

"You don't have to dear,we heard everything that happened from your husband. If I were you, I'll also do the same"

"Thank you...for understanding"

"Where's Mom? "

"Oh! In her room... Let go".  She clasped both of our palm together as we walk toward mom's room.

We entered and saw her sleeping figure,we decide to walk slowly not to wake her up "how is she doing?". I whispered.
She's getting better, at least not like before ". She answered with a sad tone.

"I'm really sorry sis..I...I..if I had known, I wouldn't have left".

"It's not your fault... Stop blaming your self, this is not your fault. The only part is that mom loves you so much as her real daughter, and that's why it really affected her this way... I'm sure if she could wake up now and sees you, She'll be so happy"

"You think so? She won't get mad?".

"Maryam, everyone knows that you left to get your own freedom..space...you really need that".

"Kareemah, will you keep quiet". Mom mumbled softly as she open her eyes.

I quickly walk up to her to help her sit up well but when she saw me,she was shocked. She blink her eyes so many times before asking. "Maryam, is that you?!"

"Yes Mom, it's me... it's me your daughter". I answered in tears.

"Oh my God! You're back for me?". She  asked and I nod.

"Can I get a hug?"

"Of course, Mom".  I quickly hug her tightly.

"I missed you so much... I really do Mom...and I'm sorry..I'm sorry for causing you this..I'm sorry for leaving without letting you know..I'm sorry Mom".

"You don't have to be sorry dear...it wasn't your fault... In fact, I never knew you were going through so much, I had forced you into this marriage without considering your own happiness... Maryam, let get you a divorce ". She suddenly blurted.

"Huh?!". I asked unsure.

"Yes dear, let me get you a divorce paper, you can divorce my son right away, I'll make sure of that. You've went through so much...I just realise one thing when you left...Kareem don't deserve you at all".

Divorce? Of course, shouldn't I be happy? This is what I've been waiting for but why do I feel sad? Why do I feel as if I'm loosing something.

"So, what do you think dear?"

"Erm...Erm...mom, why don't you take a rest first?".

"Why? You're leaving?"

"No...no Mom, I'm going no where... In fact, your friend is on her way coming here"

"You mean your Mom?". She asked with a bright smile and I nod in response.

"You know, your mother is really a good person, she has been taking good care of me ever since I was sick,cook and do so many things for me. She's one in a million, just so caring as you.........why don't you sleep with me?"
