That night...
When Merry first felt a sense of doubt about her husband...
she couldn't sleep for a long time.
The same questions kept circling in her mind—
"Is something really wrong...?"
"Or am I just overthinking?"
In the end...
she convinced herself.
"No... nothing is proven yet..."
And she buried that doubt deep inside her heart.
The next morning...
everything was just like before.
Merry woke up early,
went to the kitchen,
and got busy with household work...
It was a big family—everyone had their own needs.
And Merry...
quietly kept fulfilling all her responsibilities.
A few days later...
her husband suddenly said—
"I'm going to the city... for work."
Merry asked,
"When will you come back?"
"Soon... this time I'll bring money."
Merry nodded.
She felt a little hopeful...
maybe things would finally get better.
But...
the truth was something else.
Days passed...
One week...
Two weeks...
A whole month...
No calls...
No money...
The truth was—
the family already knew everything.
Whenever he went to the city...
he didn't go to work.
He went to drink.
When things got too out of control...
people from their village who worked in the city would call—
"Your son is in a very bad condition here..."
Then someone from the family would quietly go,
bring him back,
and hide the matter.
But all of this...
was kept hidden from Merry.
Whenever he returned home...
he stayed normal for a few days.
And Merry would think—
"Maybe this time he really worked..."
After some time...
he left again.
This time...
he had no money.
He came to Merry and said—
"I need money... I have to repay a loan."
For the first time...
Merry answered him directly—
"Where will I bring so much money from?"
She paused for a moment...
then said—
"You took the loan... where did all that money go?"
Her husband looked at her...
but said nothing.
And without answering...
he walked away.
After he left...
the family came to Merry.
"Can't you bring money from your parents?"
"Your husband is going to sell the land..."
Then they tried to convince her—
"Whatever you received at the time of marriage..."
"the jewelry... the gifts..."
"We'll keep them with the jeweler and repay the loan..."
"Later, we'll take them back after paying the money..."
Merry stood there...
listening silently.
Every word...
felt like a wound.
For a few moments...
she said nothing.
Then suddenly...
she stood up.
She walked straight to the cupboard.
Opened it...
and started taking out everything she had received in marriage.
One by one...
she threw everything in front of them.
"Take it..."
her voice trembled—
"I have nothing to do with any of you anymore..."
The room fell silent.
There were tears in her eyes...
but this time...
she wasn't weak.
She turned around...
and quietly walked away.
But even after all this...
nothing changed.
The land kept getting sold...
money kept disappearing...
and her husband...
remained the same.
Now Merry understood everything.
He would never change.
That night...
she stood in front of the mirror.
She looked at herself...
and softly said—
"Enough..."
This time...
there were no tears in her eyes.
Only a decision.
The beginning of a new life.
