DISCLAIMER Some of these stories may be triggering. Reader discretion is advised. Why is it so hard for a man to simply admit he no longer wants to be in a relationship? Why do some men choose silence, distance, or cruelty over honesty? And more importantly-why do we, as women, stay? Why do we give endless chances, make excuses in our heads, and cling to relationships that have already died? I Knew It Was Time... is a powerful collection of short stories from women in Nairobi, Kenya-each one recounting the moment they finally recognized their breaking point. These are raw, unfiltered accounts of love, betrayal, anger, regret, and the bittersweet courage it takes to walk away. This book is not about dismissing men's struggles. It is about honoring women's truths-their pain, their choices, and the pivotal moment they finally said, "enough." Curated as an eye-opener for modern women, this collection challenges us to stop second-guessing "his actions" and instead recognize the quiet strength it takes to choose ourselves.
