Yet another tragic miscarriage sends Adaeze's life out of kilter. The medical diagnosis that further pregnancy attempts will be difficult means Adaeze must face the reality of the situation with her husband, Nonso. Adaeze evaluates the emptiness now left inside her while struggling with guilt, pressures from the church and deciding how to tell her husband about the medical realities. Only by taking matters into her own hands does she learn how to mitigate her feelings of guilt and find closure. By battling her interior questions of religious and societal expectations, she must emerge as a woman free from all external pressures.
