I watched her dumbfounded and couldn't say anything in fact I didn't know what to ask and where to start from asking. She stared at me for a while with sorrow in her eyes so I couldn't bring myself to shout at her or be angry with her. What could she have done when she was in love? The things people do all in the name of love is unimaginable.
But she had said I wasn't her child so who was I and my father never mentioned having another wife before her. So I couldn't understand what she meant by that. So I asked,
