As Alice drove to her friend’s place, she rehearsed what to tell her.
How would she tell her friend that Mike, her husband, had impregnated
Peace, her maid again? This was the third time she would be seeking her
friend’s help in terminating the poor teenager’s pregnancy! She made up
her mind that this would be the last.
But Mary, her friend, disagreed with her vehemently: “Alice, I cannot
follow you to the clinic for another abortion. What if she loses her
womb or her life in the process? I think it is high time something is
done to your husband. He must stop sleeping with your maids.”
