I was terrified that he would somehow find out that I was trying to deport him! I prayed, "Oh God, please do not let him find out!" Feeling defeated and let down by Canadian Immigration, I went to collect him from the airport. Fear gripped my heart as I pretended that nothing had taken place. Somehow, my husband had his suspicions that I had attempted his deportation. Perhaps at some point when reporting to the removal officer, he might have overheard my conversation with him. Even now, I remember the removal officer's eyes how they had been so apologetic. He could see my fear and I sensed his helplessness towards the situation.

Conquered and petrified, I had to continue this marriage. I did not want to think what my husband was capable of doing if he found out that I had attempted to deport him. I did not want to underestimate him and understood what he was capable of when he was desperate. He had orchestrated this whole sham, and manipulated me to get into a marriage and sponsorship.
I also realized that he might have owed his uncle a payment for introducing me to him. Everything that was happening to me was too bizarre and realizing all of this, I became even more stressed out and scared. I was caught up in a web of nightmares too bizarre to believe.
