One Case of Married Life (Short Story)

There's a woman who has been living in the life of being a married-lady for just 28 days if counting from her wedding day. Many good times she and her husband are living in and that’s really nice. However, they still had arguments or disappointment sometime but those were just the small ones. She will consider that small arguments as the biggest ones, why? Because she won’t allow to appear any other bad bigger arguments.

Well, since they start living together and become the real spouse, what the wife has heard more often is her husband’s insistence of having child. He wants child. Of course, she also wants to have baby but that’s not the right time yet. The wife has twice times already with the injection to prevent the cancer of womb. The first and second time only need the distant of time for one month but the third one, need the distance for six months. So she needs to prevent herself from having baby until she will already get the third injection. All types of cancer are very dangerous; it will take one’s life away without noticed period. So before getting married, her parents especially her mum, told her to get this prevention. Although, her husband said, “it doesn’t matter, our parents or grandparents, they all didn’t have any prevention of this kinda cancer but they are still healthy”. Sure, the elder generation, they had no prevention of it but that should not compare the past time to the current one. The atmosphere in this present is such dirty, not a like the previous long time. Many may understand this, a lot of strange diseases happen and it’s hard to find the method to cure. The wife thought that “at least she tries to prevent it when she knows about it, that’s better than she knows but ignores it. So that, she can avoid this cancer. In contrast, if she doesn't care of it and it happens to her, she will regret”.
It still happens again and again of her husband’s request (baby). He has a few friends whom after they got married, they so much want the child but it is unsuccessfully. They cannot have child. So her husband got this affection and he’s now very afraid of having no child. He even used to tell her as if she cannot have the baby for him; he would have love-affair with another lady for the child-purpose. The wife knows he is kidding and he also said that’s just joke but it gives her the pressure. By one day morning, the husband said couple life would be meaningless or no values if they are living without the child presence. It gives the wife more pressure. She’s more in sad. As he’s always requesting her to have baby, there should depend on many reasons, she thought. She feels he decided to marry her is not because he’s so love her but that would because of having child. Another reaosn, he may get surrounding pressure and scare for having no child or he may love and want only his child more than her or her health. She wonders if all the men are so too... Marrying for only the child-purpose? :’(

Anyway, she had committed already, she must become a very good wife whom has an open-minded and understanding with much more offering or forgiving than claiming for something, then she needs to reconsider this. She later decided to accept her husband request. She won’t deny it more! She thinks, in case she will have baby before her injection day, no need to get that last injection since even she goes to get it but it’s still not effective. In contrast, if she has period in the late month of her last injection, so she won’t have baby yet, next she can go to have this final prevention. She knows, it is a very high risk to her health but it is the best solution, she guessed. Thus, this disease also rarely to happen, she promises herself she will try her best to have a good care of her health and will always go to get her health-checked every year. If that kind of cancer still happens to her, she will consider it as her bad luck, her dangerous fate. Only this decision could help her husband to feel better. She told herself she should stop thinking about that prevented-injection.This is maybe what she can and should do now.

Family happiness is her happiness!!
