00:00My name is Ariana. I was 27 years old when I met William.

00:06He was a very kind man. We met at a friend's wedding party.

00:12I saw him across the room, and when he walked over to me, we began talking.

00:19We talked for a long time that night about our lives, our dreams.

00:26The next day, he called me, and soon we were talking every day.

00:32We met for coffee, watched movies.

00:36He understood me, listened to me, and treated me so well.

00:42I loved him, and he loved me.

00:46One evening, we were walking in the park when he suddenly stopped,

00:51took my hand, and asked me to marry him.

00:56My heart raced. I smiled and said yes.

01:01We planned a small wedding with just our family and close friends.

01:07I felt like the happiest woman in the world, ready to start a perfect life.

01:14But life after the wedding was different.

01:17It wasn't the happy life I imagined.

01:20William's mother, Claudia, was a problem.

01:25She lived close and came to our house almost every day without calling.

01:33She'd bring food sometimes, but mostly she brought her opinions and her control.

01:40She told William what to do, eat more vegetables, sleep early, wear a jacket.

01:48And William always listened, like a child, not like a husband.

01:55I was there too in that house, but I felt invisible.

02:01Claudia hardly spoke to me.

02:02She'd talk about me to William even when I was in the room.

02:08I tried to be kind, to be a good wife, but she made me feel small.

02:14Slowly, our house didn't feel like mine.

02:18It felt like hers.

02:21Every day, she came, took all of William's attention, and made me feel more and more lonely.

02:29One day at lunch, she looked at me and said,

02:34Ariana, you're lucky to be William's wife.

02:38Many girls wanted to marry him.

02:41I stayed quiet, but her words hurt me.

02:45I began noticing that William was coming home late more often.

02:51He'd always say he was with his mother.

02:55I was worried.

02:56I felt like she was more important than me.

03:00I lived with my husband, but I felt very alone.

03:05One night, I told William how I felt.

03:09I said,

03:11William, I feel lonely.

03:13Your mother is always here.

03:15I feel like you're not my husband sometimes.

03:19He sighed and said,

03:21Oh, Ariana, you're too sensitive.

03:24Mother just wants to help.

03:26He didn't understand.

03:29He thought I was just complaining.

03:32I was alone in this marriage.

03:34I felt empty.

03:36We started arguing more and more.

03:39I cried many nights.

03:41I began thinking,

03:43Was this marriage really for me?

03:45After one really bad fight,

03:49I decided to leave.

03:51I packed my bag at night,

03:54planning to go before William woke up.

03:57But in the morning,

03:59I felt sick.

04:01I had a strange feeling in my stomach.

04:04I took a pregnancy test.

04:06My hands were shaking as I waited.

04:12Then I saw the result.

04:14It was positive.

04:16I was pregnant.

04:17Tears filled my eyes.

04:19A baby.

04:21Our baby.

04:22Maybe William would change.

04:24Maybe his mother would leave us alone.

04:27This baby gave me hope.

04:30I decided not to leave.

04:33Not now.

04:35This baby was my last hope.

04:38I planned to tell William that night.

04:41That afternoon,

04:44I cleaned the house and cooked William's favorite meal,

04:49chicken and rice.

04:50Then I lit some candles

04:53to make the room look romantic.

04:58Suddenly,

04:59the front door opened.

05:02It wasn't locked.

05:07And Claudia walked in,

05:09as always,

05:11without knocking.

05:13My happiness was gone in a second.

05:16She entered the living room

05:19and froze when she saw

05:21the romantic set up.

05:23The candles.

05:24The dinner.

05:26What is this?

05:28She asked angrily.

05:29I took a deep breath and said,

05:33Claudia, I'm pregnant.

05:35I'm going to have a baby.

05:38She stayed quiet for a moment,

05:41then gave a strange, angry laugh.

05:45Pregnant?

05:46No, it can't be William's baby.

05:49She shouted.

05:52Yes, of course it is.

05:54I replied.

05:56What are you saying?

05:57Her face turned red.

05:59You bad girl.

06:01You lied.

06:02You did this to trap my son.

06:05You can't have his baby.

06:08I was shocked.

06:09I was William's wife.

06:12Then suddenly,

06:13she raised her hand

06:15and slapped me hard on the face.

06:18My cheek burned.

06:21My head hurt.

06:23And tears came.

06:25I stood there shaking.

06:27She had slapped me.

06:30William's mother hit me in my own house

06:33after I told her I was pregnant.

06:36I don't know how long I stood frozen.

06:41Claudia was still in the room,

06:43still angry.

06:44Then the door opened.

06:46William came home.

06:48He saw everything.

06:54The dinner.

06:55The candles.

06:57Me crying.

06:58Holding my face.

06:59And his mother standing there.

07:02What is happening?

07:04He asked.

07:05I tried to speak.

07:07She slapped me.

07:09I whispered,

07:10pointing at Claudia.

07:12William looked at her.

07:14Mother,

07:15did you hit Ariana?

07:17He asked.

07:19She answered,

07:20yes,

07:20I did,

07:21William.

07:22She says she's pregnant,

07:24but I don't believe her.

07:26She's trying to trap you.

07:28I had to stop her.

07:31William looked at her,

07:33then at me.

07:34My face was red and wet with tears.

07:37Then William said,

07:39I believe Ariana.

07:42Claudia got very angry.

07:46What did you say?

07:48She asked.

07:49I believe Ariana,

07:52William said.

07:53She's my wife.

07:55This is my baby.

07:57If you choose her over me,

08:00Claudia shouted,

08:02you will no longer be my son.

08:05If I have to choose,

08:07then I'm not your son anymore.

08:09William said quietly,

08:12Claudia screamed,

08:15said more angry words,

08:17and left,

08:18slamming the door behind her.

08:22William walked to me and said,

08:25Ariana,

08:26I'm so sorry.

08:28I cried in his arms.

08:31We stood there for a long time,

08:34holding each other.

08:36After that day,

08:38Claudia didn't call for weeks,

08:41and William didn't call her either.

08:44The house felt peaceful without her.

08:48William and I began talking again,

08:51about everything.

08:53He said sorry for not seeing how his mother had hurt me.

08:57He promised to put me and our baby first.

09:02It wasn't easy,

09:04but we began to heal.

09:07He tried hard to be a better husband.

09:10We went to the doctor together.

09:13We saw our baby on the screen.

09:16Eight months later,

09:18our baby boy was born.

09:20William looked at me and said,

09:22Thank you, Ariana.

09:24You gave me everything.

09:27Our baby brought joy and love into our home.

09:31One day my phone rang.

09:33It was Claudia.

09:35She asked if she could visit the baby.

09:38William said it was my choice.

09:41I said yes.

09:42She came a few days later.

09:44She looked thinner and older.

09:46I took her to the baby's room.

09:50She looked at her grandson and said,

09:53He looks like William.

09:55She had tears in her eyes.

09:58Then she looked at me and said,

10:02Ariana, I was wrong.

10:04About everything.

10:05About you.

10:06About the baby.

10:08I'm very, very sorry.

10:11I nodded.

10:12That was enough.

10:13She understood now.

10:15We didn't become close.

10:18But things became peaceful.

10:21She never hit me again.

10:23She called before coming and stayed quiet while she was here.

10:28And William, he never left my side again.

10:33Even when things feel broken,

10:36love and courage can fix them.

10:40Family is not just about blood.

10:43It's about respect, support, and standing together.
