The thought about Rose and how she was coping with her husband kept disturbing me. I had to call her to find out how she was doing.
“ Hello, Cynthia! How are you doing?”
“Very well dear. I’m sorry I’ve not called you recently to know how you are. What’s new Rose? How is your husband?” Rose sighed and said.
“ That one. He is just there. These days we are more like roommates. He comes home, eats, and minds his business. I don’t know how fate entangled me with this kind of human being” I was shocked he was still the same.
“ Rose you mean he hasn’t changed?
“ Cynthia, please leave that part of our gist for another day. What bothers me right now is my mother’s health condition. Her doctor said she has diabetes. She has been placed on a diet but you know, she needs someone by her side to monitor what she eats”
“ Oh no! Diabetes? She needs to be disciplined with the food she eats to bring down her sugar level. It has so many bad effects if not checked. Oh dear”
