Maybe They Were Right
Linda and Shaniece’s parents always said that Linda and Josh were too young to get married, and maybe they really were right in what they were saying. Shaniece wasn’t sure if she wanted to say it, but she did anyway. She looked at her sister in the eye and said, “Why did you ask him to leave, Linda?”
Her Explanation
Linda started crying again as she mustered out the words, “You know we’ve been trying for a year now, Shaniece. He wants to take out another loan for IVF, but we can’t afford it”. Shaniece’s heart sank into her stomach when she heard the pain in her sister’s voice.
