Edna has always been a daddy's girl and she loves and adores her father. She is now in a dilemma after she found out that her mother has been cheating on him.

This is one confused lady (CitiFmOnline)
"Dear Pulse,
My name is Edna, a 24-year-old lady. I finished my National Youth Service Corps scheme some months ago and came back home to start job hunting.
My parents have been married for 26 years and have always had a very interesting marriage. I have three siblings and they have always tried to give us the best they could afford.

The seemingly happy marriage is now being threatened after I found out that my mother had been having a secret affair with one of dad's best friends and business partner for many years.

The man whom I call uncle Mark, is more like a family friend and we the kids exchange visits and I can pop into their house without notice and would be treated like one of them.

His first daughter, Nimi, is my age mate and my best friend. In fact, we could pass for sisters as we are so close many people think we are related.

I am what you would call a daddy's girl because as the only girl, I have always been close to my father. He dots on me and calls me his mother. I love my father so much and the betrayal from my mother is not only painful but very devastating.

I cannot begin to think what will happen if my father gets to know that a woman he has loved for so many years would be sleeping with his own friend.

I got to find out that my mother and 'uncle Mark' were having a secret affair when Nimi hinted me about the sordid affair. She too had found out by mistake and had wanted to tell her mother but first wanted me to know about it.

At first, I did not believe her until she showed me some text messages the two of them had been exchanging. The text messages were so explicit and raunchy, like the kinds young lovers would exchange.

We decided to monitor them and one day, Nimi found a text message her father sent to my mother telling her to meet him at a guest house at a particular time.

We went to the guest house and hid around the place and at the exact time, we saw Nimi' father drive in, shortly followed by mum's car.

We stealthily followed them and saw them book into a room. We gave them some minutes before we went to knock on the door, pretending to be waitresses. My mother was the one that opened the door and she had a towel tied around her waist while Nimi's dad was on the bed in his boxer shorts.

They were both shocked to the bone marrow seeing us and began begging us not to expose them. Nimi wanted to charge into the room but I held her back and dragged her away from the place so that she would not create a scene.

When mum came home, she came to my room and begged me not to tell dad, promising never to indulge in such again. I asked her how long she had been dating 'uncle Mark' and she said they had been dating secretly for over 10 years. Can you imagine that?

Nimi's father, on the other, has also been begging her not to expose him. We have not decided yet on what to do and that is the reason I want your readers to tell us what to do. Personally, I am very disappointed with my mother. I am hurting on my dad's behalf.

Edna."

Dear readers, Edna is torn between the love she has for her father and the fact that exposing her mother could destroy their marriage. On Morning Teaser today, what do you think she should?

If the affair has been going on for over a year....... Simply means your dad has to fix his broken pipe!!!! Your mum is the MVP....my wife can't cheat on me for a year and expect me not to know not to talk of 10 years...... If you're 24 in a marriage of 26 years chai wetin ur mama still dey find sef

Getting more scared about fidelity in marriage these days.

10 years is a long time for cheating to go unnoticed. Whether you expose them or not, that won't stop their relationship. In fact by exposing them, you have given them the freedom and boldness to continue their relationship from where they stopped. By not telling the faithful and loyal parent, Nimi and Edna would be betraying their love.

At a cost of tearing the family apart, I honestly think they be exposed so that Edna's father and Nimi's mum would get to know the devils they are have been living with.

The cheats knew their actions would tear the family apart if exposed but were not bothered because they were selfish, self-centered and the desire and lust to satisfy their flesh tops their agenda. So let the family tear apart once and for all because if the truth doesn't come out now, it's just a matter of time.
