keep her marriage together. All of this happened on a road trip
because they embarked on a journey to the village.

confronted with answers and questions that they had to face.

problem started and the genesis of where they were and why
they were where they were as a couple, considering they were
only five years old in the marriage. Victoria had to undergo
series of emotions,” Genevieve said.
