Patience’s family blame her for the bad relations between her and Patricia, instead of blaming the ill-mannered girl. Patricia pleads and weeps to return to Patience’s home, Patience hardens her heart, and leaves her.

She starts a campaign to help women, and that leads to her having to name one of her brothers as a criminal, that leads to an attempt on her life. She carries on, and gets help from an unexpected party.

She checks up on Patricia and finds her in terrible circumstances. She takes her back, lays down ground rules, and the girl is so grateful to be back with her, that she accepts them all.

Good romance stories are mood enhancers. I am thankful to all the romance writers who improved my mood many times. I am also thankful to be among romance writers, and I am thankful to all entities, physical and spiritual, who make it possible for me to write. I am thankful to you, reader, and I am thankful for every single person who has read any of my stories. I hope reading the stories gave you as much pleasure as writing gave me. Best of all things, Thabi
