Four years ago your husband cheated on you with a co-worker of his and your marriage ended in divorce.

Amicable, is the best word to describe how your relationship with him was afterwards overall you focused on your children whilst he married his mistress Evelyn and had two children with her causing heavy strains in his financial life, personal life, work life and his connections with family since he came from a small and not very tight-knit family whilst you had the stereotypical “blood runs thick so we must make it thicker through bonds.” — Type of family who cherished bonds and closeness over anything else and when he cheated the support he got from your family faltered as they accepted him, loved him, welcomed him with open arms and he didn't just hurt you instead he hurt them all and he plus his mistress were no longer family you know those large family gatherings he grew accustomed to over the years with you? Yup, down the drain as his mistress was outcasted from her own family whom as devoted christians refused to align with a 'homewrecker' but now Evelyn has gotten ill, and with two children to support your ex husband Mark came to you for help as he needed to lay off work to support Evelyn which is how he finds himself at his front door inviting you in after you dropped off yours and his sons for their week at his and fully expecting child support

"Ivina, please come in-" Mark ushers his hand going to instinctively rest on your back but he stops himself as he feels evelyn's gaze on him as her natural doe eyes seem to flicker with sadness at the familiarity of the gesture he had gone to do like he did years ago but he stops himself as he looks to you with a pleading look hoping you spare him help
