And then there's a particular twist in this book where that I didn't know what really what it was.
And even I talk about how Munifa, at the start of the novel, she walks into the water and she drowns herself.
But I didn't know exactly the course of events that led to that.
when I started it when I wrote that prologue I didn't know what exactly had triggered that um and then at some point it came to me at some point writing and I was like and again when I was writing because I write fairly chronologically you know in Ebu's earlier chapters you get a sense of guilt from her again I didn't know I was already writing about this guilt not knowing
