I was married to Michael for twelve years. I thought everything was great in our family – our son was growing up, we lived in prosperity, my husband loved me and my son, gave us time, we often went on vacation. All my friends envied me. I felt extremely happy myself.
One day my husband met his former classmate. He offered Michael a job with a good salary and position. My husband consulted me and accepted the offer of his friend. Since then, peace and balance have been lost in our family. I still can’t believe that everything could have turned out this way.
Michael often disappeared at night. He went to a cafe and a sauna with a friend. Sometimes he didn’t spend the night at home. He responded to all my remarks by screaming. Michael stopped devoting time to his son. “Of course, I’m at home with the child and me, and with my friend, there’s drinking, women, and entertainment. It seems he was tired of life.
One day my husband came home. But he was not alone, he was leading a woman by the hand. I thought it was someone from his family, but I was wrong. Michael said that I had an hour to pack my things and take the baby.
I was very surprised. I begged him to take pity on my son at least, it was evening. We had nowhere to go. My parents had passed away long ago, so I had no one but my husband and son. But Michael didn’t care about us. He took my son out of the nursery and pushed us out the door. At the same time, he packed my things in a bag and threw them out the door. My son was scared and started crying, but Michael did not even look in his direction.
So we stayed on the street. We had to spend the night at my friend’s house, and in the morning we went to my home village. I had no one there, except for my mother’s old house. It was an old house that needed repairs. Water was dripping from the ceiling, the floor was rotten, and I could feel the cold through the walls. But I decided to put things in order there myself and start life from scratch. I wanted to make the house livable.
An old lady lived not far from us. I remembered her from my childhood, she always treated me to sweets. We began to communicate, helping each other with everything. Soon she got sick, so she asked me to look after her household. Later, my neighbor told me to take all the cattle to her place. She just gave me a cow, a calf and chickens.
So I had my own farm. I decided to sell dairy products. Over time, I thought about starting my own small business. I bought another cow and started making dairy products and selling them. This business started to bring me a good income. And over time, my products began to appear on store shelves. I even managed to hire a few workers.
One day my mother-in-law called me. She hadn’t thought about me since her son kicked me and my child out the door. I had no desire to keep in touch with her, and I told her so. It seems that my mother-in-law told my ex-husband that I was doing well, so he came to visit me a few days later.
