SITUATIONAL CRISIS

Situational crisis often breaks or brings one to the brink to know if they are really committed.

Flora grew up as a lovable lady,she attended the best schools and got a job as a ballerina teacher in a primary school,her life was a smooth sailing affair... no problem. You might ask if she found a life partner throughout her life,in fact she did and during their courtship,Flora insisted it should be marriage before sex,Micheal her fiancé agreed since he was a traditional man.

The bells of marriage bliss came,and both married, "So,where did all her crisis go?" The crisis began on her wedding night,as she was getting ready for the big moment. Armed men attacked the entire building,dealt with everyone and raped flora off her innocence,while her husband watched the eye soar act.

"Old gist,right?"

*Sigh* You might want to finish the story though..

Micheal wouldn't make an attempt to comfort her let alone sleep with his wife,it went on for months.She discovered she was carrying a child.
Hmmm, poor flora packed her bag and baggages and went home to her parents because her husband couldn't stand the sight of her protruding stomach.

"You can't keep this baby" flora's mother said "its a shame,an eye sore to us,when you give birth to it put it up for adoption"

"Mum why? If this is the way I have been predestined then I will gladly keep this baby. Rather I will divorce micheal"

Now,this is the part I was coming to; "Divorce?" Flora's mother asked "why will you divorce your husband,because of this little crisis. its absurd"

Flora's mother would actually condone abortion and giving up a baby but can't condone divorce?

Situational crisis right?I tried using my liberal mind on this,it still got me thinking,what's your opinion?
