Dear Kadija
You probably have forgotten or do not remember me, my name is Keisha and I am the woman who broke up your family. I was the mistress to Chris. I would like to apologise for all the hard times I put you through by destroying your marriage. I thought my outward beauty is all needed to get me to the top of the world. I was very wrong. I realise now that you are the most beautiful woman in the world, because unlike me your beauty is not superficial but it goes deeper into your soul. You are the virtuous woman they we wrote about in the bible. I have observed from a distance and know if I can be half the woman you are I will be blessed beyond measure. You have weathered seasons and still come out with your head held high.
All the things you ever told me about Chris turned out to be true. He hit me so many times, especially after he lost his job and there was no money in the house anymore. I have so many scars that I cannot even conceal. I wrote this letter just to ask for your forgiveness.
From Keisha
The ex-mistress
