CHAPTER 12


    I also stared straight into his eyes and it felt like we were having a staringpetition until I finally


    decided to break the silence.


    "I don''t have anything to exin to you, you know how much this thing means to me. And i got in, Are


    you just going to let me miss this opportunity because of your selfishness" I spat angrily. My eye brows


    were furrowed together with an intense stare.


    "You are not going to take this job and it remains so, you really like to ho against me and this will be


    thest time I will ever allow such a thing happen because you won''t even be able to leave this house a


    next time. Just listen to me and we wouldn''t have to always fight" he said pacing back and forth as he


    clenched his fist together, ready to punch into something,anything. His jaw was clenched and the anger


    on his face was too much for what was going on. It was all so confusing and I was understanding


    anymore. I just wanted to get out of here.


    "You can''t tell me what to do with my life!!!"I suddenly screamed not even aware that I did, the anger


    let itself out and i couldn''t even control it.i was furious.


    "I can and I will" he said as he stopped in front of me fuming, it felt like I could see mese out of


    his eyes, his fist still clenched as he gave me a deadly stare. I had never been this scared in my life.


    "I won''t talk about this again because this is my final decision" Ridwan said as he brought out the


    mail from his pocket.  With two hands, he raised it up in front of my face as he tore it into two and tears


    threatened to spill down my face.i was devastated and I felt helpless as the torn papers shattered on


    the floor in front of me and and I just watched unable to do anything.


    Ridwan picked up his car keys from the table in the living room as he opened the front door to leave.


    The tears I had been holding then spilled and I just picked up my purse and rushed up the stairs


    angrily. I banged the door behind me as I copsed with my face on the pillow as I cried out  loudly into


    the pillow. There was nothing I could do and that even made it worse and made me even more furious.


    I wanted to just go away from all of it. It was frustrating. This wasn''t the man I had married, he was


    totally different from the person I had met years ago in the university and that wasn''t helping.


    I weeped silently in my pillow until I slept off. I hadn''t even realized when Ridwan got back pr anything. I


    remember Ayoing to knock on my door asking if I wanted anything to eat but I had refused to


    answer and not stand up from where I was.

    I opened my eyes slowly as the sun ray from outside shun on my face. I rubbed my hand on my face. I


    looked to the side and Ridwan wasn''t there but then I had seen some boxes scattered around the bed


    but my eyes had been blurry so I walked into the bathroom to rinse my face.
