On the other hand, her father, named Tom, works in his own hospital, this is one of the reasons why Mary has decided to study medicine.

It had been a hard day, Mary had done two difficult exams and and she was very tired because she has had to do a lot exercise at the GYM. When she arrived home, she went to the kitchen to drink some water and while she was doing it, she heard a lot of screams. She hurried up to go to the living room. There she saw how her parents were arguing. They have never talked to each other in this way, but nowadays it was starting to become something usual. Because of this, she decided to have a conversation with her mother:

  – Hi mum!, how are you?

  – I’m fine

  – Are you sure?

  – Yes, why?

 – I’m a bit worry about your relationship with dad… Last two weeks both of you have had a lot arguments.

  – Oh! Honey, it is normal in a couple, you don’t have to agree with your partner in everything, sometimes you have your own opinion about a topic, you believe it and you think it is correct.

  – Okey mum. I’m going to go to my bedroom, I must do my homework, if you need something say it to me please.

Weeks have passed and anything has not changed. The relationship between Mary’s parents has gotten worse. One day she was going back to her house and she found a very seriously argument. Her mother was crying and her father was so overwhelmed that decided to take the car and chill out.

Quickly Mary went with her mother in order to console her. She was so nervous because she did not know what was happening.  

   – MUM, MUM, what have happened? Are you okey?

   – Darling, I want to have a very serious conversation with you. Your father and me have some problems in our relationship. Uff, It is so difficult to explain.

   – Came on mum! I am worry about it!, sorry, I have been so stiff, please, could you tell me the problem in order to be more relaxed?

   – Well, I have been thinking a lot of time that your father was tricking me.

   – But he was lying you? What is the falsehood?

   – Yes, he was unfaithful to me.

   – What? Oh my goodness!

   – Your father has a lover, he has a relationship with another woman.

   – I can not believe it.

   – Yes, this is the sad reality. Because of this, I have decided to get divorced from your father.
