You Are Still My Wife!

Frieze headed home and as she reached her room, she closed the door to lean against it. She was weak on her knees and sat down continuing to lean her back on the door. She sat still and tears came flowing down her cheeks. She started sobbing and the cries got fiercer. She was heartbroken and all she did all this time was to play it cool just to see him happy. She did not want to put any kind of pressure on him as she knew everyone just left him all alone. She is not disappointed as Simon from hiding everything from her but glad she knew indirectly through Dori’s social media account that helped her overcome her broken feelings. She was waiting for this day to hear Idri tell her about the divorce. She was not sure until today where he finally said it. She continued to cry until someone knocked at the door. She knew it was not Idri as he was in the hospital and he would be discharged only by tomorrow. He got up from the floor, wipe all her tears and finally opened the door when she was confident about her looks. Outside the room stood Rose and David. They asked if they could come inside. Rose held her hand and made her sit on the bed while David closed the door behind him.

David pulled a chair towards her both facing Frieze. She waited for them to speak as she could already see how much they wanted to say things but did not where to start. She gave an encouraging look to both of them signaling them to speak and she is ready to listen.

David spoke first, “We have seen you as our daughter and never a daughter in law. When Idri brought you here for the first time, we just felt that our longing for a daughter has come to an end. I could never imagine it is that son who is now trying to make you leave us and this home. I am ashamed. Hope you will forgive us for all the wrongdoings.”

Rose continued before Frieze could actually speak, “You can choose not to divorce him. Let him suffer. Let them not be together. This is not fair. He promised you all the happiness and how dare he take it all away. I am shameful of my own son.”

just smiled at both joyfully. Rose looked at David surprised.

There will always be tension in the house and mental fitness is important you know.” She winks at them and continues, “I love my husband and as your son, I know you both love him too. For the sake of our love for him, let us just see him happy ok? It is not entirely his fault. When I met him for the first time, I should had ignored him
