Let her mistake be a lesson to someone
She got Married. Yes, She Was! She took a vow and it felt magical at that time. She have set herself that whatever goes wrong, "I WILL HOLD ON TO MY VOW!" Yes! As early as her 25th year, She have told herself that Everything is about to change! And She even prepared herself for the worst. Like it was a joke, "til death do us part" kind of stand. She pictured a peaceful living. Love instead of hate, Respect instead of arguments, Humility instead of bragging.
6 months passed, An argument arises then She was grabbed into her collar just because He can't accept a mistake of his own doing. She wasn't able to react after She was pushed back to a door that banged the wall because of the impact. She ran upstairs towards her room, locked the door, shaking, and playing back to her head what happened and felt like it was just a nightmare that suddenly woke her up. She left to get some air and He never tried to stop her. 1 week have passed, He never even tried to find her. She went from one friend to another just to avoid telling her family about the incident. Then a friend told her, "Go home to your husband, talk to each other. It's what marriage all about."
With a scar in her heart and how she sees her husband, she went home with that one thing in Mind, "I made a vow, for better or for worst"
She went home but that night made a mark on her. She forgave him but never thought that she will encounter such thing. It could be her pride. But days, months, years have passed, His nagging never stops.
She landed a high paying job but instead of celebrating with her, He belittles it. She juggles cooking his breakfast before she leave for work, stay late at work but not late before he gets home, dropby the grocery every day, cook dinner for him, wait for him to get home, prepare dinner, wait for him to finish eating, wash the plates, clean the kitchen, and sometimes, do the laundry first before she gets to bed. While he's already upstairs playing games either on his laptop or his tablet device. And it came to be her routine every single day.
His nagging has been a part of her routine too. Just a simple thing like the floor was wiped but the bleach didn't smell that much, there will be nagging. When the laundry gets full over a small basket, nagging is there. When some ants was seen in the kitchen, there will be nagging. Like each day wasn't complete when he never finds something to nag about her despite of juggling of those tasks.
3 years have passed, Someone sent her a message, claiming that her husband impregnated the guy's partner. As early as sunrise, she was confused of the message and just thought it was sent wrongly. But after checking the person's data, the man was connected to Her husband's co-worker.
She didn't trust the allegations, she stood with her husband that it wasn't true and thinking that it's just a trial for their marriage. Or someone just trying to get money from them.
After 3months, they went on an overseas trip. She arranged everything because it was a catch-up bday celebration for him. Added to her daily routines, She arranged everything from flights, to accomodation, to tours. He has nothing else to do but to sit back and relax. Everything seemed fine, but she felt like He's not enjoying after all. He's agitated and blaming her whenever something doesn't go as planned.
They came home, she took another day off to work to get some rest first after their tour, but He needed to go for work right after they returned. After his work, he came home agitated. Arguing again and he almost hit her on the face.
With so much things to take in, she left the house and went to her family, She didn't tell them the details of what happened, but she told them that they're just getting some air.
3 months have passed, and there are days that they were talking, He never asked her to return. But she never stopped thinking to go back. She was thinking of what will people say about them. Then one day, he came over to her house, asked her parents for her, but in her disappointment, she cannot find any sincerity at his face. With the vow she's holding in to, she returned with him.
2 weeks after she returned, the nagging are getting worst and he's always agitated and would try to punch her in the face. She finally said something to his family about the verbal abuses and some physical ones. Another 2 weeks came, arguments starts from his nagging, even during her birthday, she became a non-priority for him. She was out with his colleagues, she called him on the phone to come over to celebrate with her but he chose to just go home because he wants to sleep. 4 days after, a little argument turned into a words that shocked her, "Go! get out of My house."
With the little pride and self-worth left, she ask him to repeat it again and he did. She took it fairly, grab the phone and called her parents and tell them about it, called her work for half-day so she can pack up her things.
After work, she returned to his place, get her things, call a cab, load it all up and headed to her parents' house.
That night she got home, she was devastated, feeling that she failed her vows and a quitter, but she had to pick herself altogether because the next day is the Team Building event she organized for her work.
She woke up early, pretends that nothing happened, put on her makeup, grab her things, leave the house, and show up to her work to gather everyone around for their Team building event.
It was a Holiday in the country. A day for a Hero who fought and died for the Nation’s freedom. And it was a sign for her too, that she got the freedom that she needs. Free from stress, free from noise, free from low self-esteem, free from abuse, free from a manipulative person, and Free from an abusive treatment that even God never wanted her to suffer from.
