Oyin left the wise woman's hut with a sense of determination and hope. She knew that she had a long and difficult journey ahead of her, but she was ready to face whatever challenges lay ahead.
The wise woman's words had given her a new perspective on her situation. She realized that she had been so focused on her goal of becoming a mother that she had neglected her spiritual well-being. She had forgotten to appease the gods and goddesses, and now she was paying the price.
Determined to make things right, Oyin decided to try and appease the gods. She spent hours preparing offerings and sacrifices, hoping to win back their favor.
She visited the local shrine, offering prayers and sacrifices to the gods and goddesses. She poured libations and offered incense, hoping to purify herself and make amends for her past mistakes.
But despite her best efforts, Oyin couldn't shake the feeling that something was off. She felt like she was going through the motions, but her heart wasn't in it. She felt like she was trying to bribe the gods, rather than truly connecting with them.
As the days turned into weeks, Oyin began to feel a sense of frustration and despair. She had tried everything, but nothing seemed to be working. She was starting to feel like she was never going to be able to conceive a child.
It was then that Kunle's behavior began to change. He became increasingly distant and cold, criticizing Oyin for her failure to conceive. He would make snide comments about her barrenness, leaving Oyin feeling hurt and ashamed.
One night, Kunle's anger boiled over, and he lashed out at Oyin. He accused her of being worthless, of being a failure as a woman. Oyin felt like she had been punched in the gut, like all the air had been sucked out of her.
She tried to defend herself, but Kunle just laughed at her. He told her that she was lucky to have him, that no other man would ever want her. Oyin felt like she was trapped in a nightmare, like she was living in a world that was not her own.
As the night wore on, Oyin felt like she was losing herself. She felt like she was disappearing into the darkness, like she was being consumed by Kunle's anger and hatred.
It was then that she realized that she had to get out. She had to escape from Kunle's toxic behavior, from the poisonous atmosphere that was suffocating her.
With a sense of determination and courage, Oyin packed her bags and left Kunle's house. She didn't know where she was going, or what she was going to do. All she knew was that she had to get out, before it was too late.
As she walked away from Kunle's house, Oyin felt a sense of freedom that she had not felt in years. She felt like she was finally taking control of her life, like she was finally standing up for herself.
But as she looked back at Kunle's house, Oyin felt a sense of sadness and regret. She knew that she had tried her best to make the marriage work, but in the end, it had been a failure.
She knew that she would never forget Kunle, or the pain and suffering that he had caused her. But she also knew that she had to move on, that she had to find a way to heal and recover from the wounds of her past.
As she walked into the unknown, Oyin felt a sense of hope and possibility. She knew that she still had a long and difficult journey ahead of her, but she also knew that she was ready to face whatever challenges lay ahead.
