TWO MONTHS LATER
Selena was happy she couldn't believe that she had passed just after one try. She had been nervous about this exam ever since she started the lessons. But since she had passed and got her driver's license now she can drive herself. He was going to be proud of her, she could see it.
Her husband was the only person who brought joy to her life especially with so many eyes on her. She remembered the day she visited her parents in her small village, the shock they had on their faces when she told them she was getting married. With time she convinced them, she told them honestly that she couldn't live without him and he was her source of joy. They have always wanted her to be happy so they finally agreed.
She was raised in a small village where everyone worked in either the plantation or the factory. Her parents got married after finishing high school and they conceived her. They were childhood sweethearts and to make her life better than theirs, they saved money. She received all the love and care no other child could. They wanted her to attend a famous university and she got to do that. She wanted to make them proud so she studied like a maniac.
Because of her background, she didn't make any friends at all which was not a problem for her. She knew why she came to the big city and having friends in a place you didn't know was just one huge risk for her and she didn't want that.
Even though she was married at eighteen she was still attending school and everything was not the same at all. It was the way they looked at her and call her names behind her back. It wasn't a crime for one to marry another so why did they make it as if she committed a huge sin?
'Congratulations ma'am,' her driver said as she reached the car.
'I should be thanking you for all the help. I never thought in just a short period I would do it. Thank you,' she said smiling at the man.
'I'm just glad that I could help. Where do you want to go after this?' he asked her.
She pondered over the matter for a while before she reached a conclusion.
'Let's go and buy something to eat first,' she said and the driver opened the door for her and she got inside.
She took a photo of her new license and sent it to her husband who was abroad for a business meeting. He didn't open the message since he must be busy.
'How is your wife?' she asked the driver, the man who had been her driver ever since she agreed to marry her husband.
Richard was a good man and she liked him a lot, he cheered her all the time whenever she was depressed because of all those people who just couldn't stop minding their own business.
'She is doing great. She wanted me to ask you if you still want those seedlings,' he said and she remembered it.
'I nearly forgot about it. I would love to have them. I am planning on making a garden behind the house. Some vegetable will do,' she said already seeing how her new project will pan out.
'That will be great, if you need some help please don't hesitate to ask me,' Richard volunteered and she smiled.
'I will keep that in mind,' she said.
The car stopped at her favorite food mall and she happily jumped out of the car and rushed into the pizza den. Whenever she was happy she just loved having some. She couldn't afford to have it whenever she wanted it back then because she had to save but now she just buys whatever she wanted thanks to the card her husband gave her. Even though she wasn't using the card the way he wanted her to do but she was doing her best in spending his money in her own way.
