Right now, Hazel, Esmeralda and Amber were in the living room sitting in utter silence. After the secret that Hazel opened, the other two girls had no idea how to take this new situation. Apparently, Hazel was pregnant and she had told her husband about this after telling him about her decision to divorce. He was shocked for sure but there was nothing he could say or do. Hazel had made up her mind.He could clearly see this. She was not going to stay with him any longer. There were so many reasons why she should have initiated the divorce a long time ago but getting pregnant was the biggest one of them.
She had loved that man so much and his absence had killed her everyday. She did not want the same for her child. What would she answer the child when she or he grows up and ask why the father was never at home? She could adjust for her husband but children always needed their father, didn't they?
