When One Mask Slips

article image placeholderUploaded by @taha_oracle
When one mask slips. Oshnah, a deeply bruised woman, yet a courageous woman, had been far away from her family for a decade. She kept telling herself, I am a grown woman and I can take care of myself and my children. That was her mantra every single day since she tied the knot to a much older man right after she completed her education. In dentistry, it is quite common for young women to get married right after their graduation, especially if they are doctors

Once during his residency days he tried to propose her but found out that she had gotten engaged. He was taken aback but eventually quite happy for her. He could not explain his this feeling and felt that naming it would ruin it. So drenched himself in this euphoria and got carried away. Time and space separated the two birds for a while but it had a mischievous plan. Yusuf was now in his early thirties and felt like a failure

Contd..

It was as if somebody else had spoken the truth on his behalf. Yosef, how can you do this? I have children to take care of. All Yosef kept thinking was why the h*** did he not bother wearing a bloody condom? Lust had blinded his judgment even further. He had been warned in his dreams about this event but ignored it

Yosef begged USNA for forgiveness but she had now long forgotten him as if he never existed. Why would she care? Her prized possession was rusted it and she decided to throw it away. She was indeed a perfectionist who needed a mirror that could hide her stains. After a year Yusuf decided to see a doctor and discuss his ailment. It was suggested to him that he shouldn't feel guilty. He must get himself tested for the sake of his well being
