Why was Layla like this?
Sam had been considerate up until this point, but he had had enough. He insisted that Layla provide him with a compelling cause for jeopardizing her health and that of their unborn boy to marry as soon as feasible. How could that be so significant?
Religious motives
Layla finally offered Sam an answer after some thought. But it was not the response he had hoped for or expected. She told him she was concerned her religious grandparents would criticize her if she had a child before marriage.
