''Rhayanna!" I  groaned and rolled out of bed. Damn, I fell asleep.

I walked down the hallway and into the large den where Dominic was sitting. I yawned and rubbed my eyes trying to wake myself up.

"What is it? Why are you yelling?" I said my voice low and husky.

He stared at me quietly. If anything, I had to admit he was handsome. Tall, slim, and muscular. He had a smile that could make a girls knees shake and quiver. But looks can be deceiving.

I've been with to Dominic for three years. I enjoyed being with him for a while but a  lot of things have changed over the years.

"I told you I wanted my dinner when I got here." he looked up at me again.

"Dominic, I fell asleep. I'm tired." I walked past him into the kitchen.

"Tired of what? What the fuck do you do that's so tiring." he followed behind me.

"Cleaning, working, making sure you don't fuck up this great business we built." I said through clenched teeth.

"Making sure I don't fuck up. This is my law firm. I built it from the ground up." he slammed his hand on the counter.

I let out a sigh of frustration. He was beginning to agitate me.

"You know what. Without me you wouldn't have any of the shit that you have. I'm the one that's makes sure everything is in order and I'll be damned if I let you ruin it.  So shut the fuck up." I said turning to walk past him only to be pushed into the wall.

"What did you say?" he got closer to me.

I could smell perfume on is clothes. And it wasn't mine.

"You heard me. Now get off me." I pushed past him. "Oh and tell that bitch to buy a new perfume. It smells cheap."

I walked into my bedroom and slammed the door behind me. I took a quick shower and threw on some jogging pants and a white v-neck.

When I walked out I saw him sitting on the bed. I walked around the bed and laid on my side.

"Rhae look I'm sorry baby. You know I love you." he tried to kiss me but I turned my face the other way.

"Who is she?" I got up and stared at him.

"Who's who?" his eyes grew wide.

I rolled my eyes.

"Fuck this I'm leaving." I walked towards the door.

"No you're not." he said calmly.

"Excuse me?" I stopped turning to look at him only to see him standing directly in front of me.

"Where you gonna go? Huh Rhae? You think you're gonna find someone better than me?" he started circling me.

I stood there silently absorbing everything he said to me.

"No ones gonna want something like you. You're worthless. You're nothing." he said slowly making sure I heard every single syllable.

I could feel the tears rolling down my cheeks.

"You wanna leave? Leave." he walked over to the door and opened it.

I stood there. Disappointed in myself for being with someone like him. He was right. I had no family. No where to go.

"Thats what I thought." he said walking out.

I sat on the edge of the bed and cried  quietly. I hate him. I hate myself for loving him.

I laid there and cried as I heard his words echoing inside my head. My eyes grew heavy and tears continued to fall as I cried myself to sleep.
