A Fraustrated Woman-Part Two

Edna has been married to her husband Alexandra for a period of seven years,they are blessed with three lovely kids.
A Banker by profession Edna earns more money than the husband who does contracts that are not regular and when it comes Alex is unable to account for the ,money leaving Edna to fend for the upkeep of the home and the children's needs .

As at when due she pays the children's school fees but on this particular occasion due to the fact that she will not be able to  go and pay the children's fees she gave the responsibility of paying for the fees, the sum of Four Hundred and Fifty thousand naira (N450,000 )to her husband Alex .

Some weeks later their house rent which was the sum of  Seven hundred thousand naira (N700,000),was  due for payment and again the responsibility of making the payment fell on the shoulders of Alex ,who eagerly collected the money .

Time went by ,and  Edna was at home when the landlord came and requested for the rent,Edna confidently informed him that she had already made the payment.Then he told her that he had not received any form payment from them.Edna said she will get back to him when her husband Alex returns home as he was the one that made the payment .

On Alex's return ,Edna inquired about the payment of the rent and he stated that he had paid but was unable to produce proof of payment.After further investigation by Edna she discovered that Alex had spent the money which was meant for the rent,she was so upset ,as she had saved for it and now the husband has spent all the money ,how is she going to raise the money for the rent .

As if that was not enough ,while she was trying to resolve the rent  issue,the  school wrote to them that the children's school fees was yet to be paid ,that without payment of their fees ,the children will not be allowed to write their exams or allowed into the premises of the school

Her husband's irresponsibility was so upsetting to Edna that she is contemplating the idea of leaving her husband .

If you were in her shoes what will you do?
