Part 76

***Beauty is vain. It appears and like the wind, it's gone***

I look at myself in the mirror and I felt like killing myself, I never thought I'd be this person. never dated anyone before that even yelled at me. but here I am.

All the signs were there that his no good but stupidity and being a lover of material things got me to this quicksand, I remember the first time his behavior degraded me and made me feel worthless,  he threw me on top of his car hood and fucked me in front of his friend with no care in the world later on that night he pulled me by my hair and violated me in the most painful way, next morning he paid me and kicked me out, I combed out the hair he pulled out and wore my torn dress, I folded my arms so that his driver could not see the carpet burn on my arms.

The second time he twisted my arm, told me straight up that I'm his property and he will kill me if I leave him,

The third time the insult started, the shouting and him constantly manhandling me,

This time my face is fucked up. he punched me between the eyes and there's a huge still-sorta-bleeding gash there. I don't remember it, but I guess he punched me in the cheek afterward. I look like a chipmunk and two of my front teeth are loose. the bruises are still forming, but I don't know how to cover this shit up.

Good lord helps me because I just never considered myself in this demographic.

What happened to the charming, witty, romantic, and incredibly loving man that I had lunch with the first day we meet.

He showed me to be Very successful yet so humble .he made me feel so special, treated me like a piece of rear jewelry... He felt so much love and endearment. I thought I'm beautiful this guy must truly love me. But, turns out he's an animal.

I hold my face crying thinking about how he was beating me senseless, looking at myself closely in the mirror I realize that I have two black eyes, a busted lip, bruises on my ears, throat, chest, arms, all over, a held my nose up and blood oozed out, I flinched as I see that I have a  broken finger while trying to defend myself from him

I look at how green my body just turned yet his demanding I join him for dinner!
A knock startled me, the door opened and I quickly stood up and ran next to the bathroom door.
Our eyes meet and she just laughed shaking her head
Her: you think running to the bathroom will actually stop him?"
She bust out and laughed again, she placed  garment bag and looked at me,

Her: sit down let me fix your face"
I looked at her, a few hours ago Ginger looked like me if not worse and now she looks like a cover girl,

Her: I don't know what she sees in you or other women he thought might replace me, you young and stupid, lesson number one ' Beauty is vain. It appears and like the wind, it's gone' look at you now
She yanked my hand and made me sit down,
Her: listen here I'm the ice queen in the palace and you are snow-white, your long internal sleep is approaching, and trust me in the thorny forest where He will leave you there will be no prince charming to rescue you or give you a kiss of life! ...."

I swallowed and looked at her,
Her: cry and mass up your make up I will fuck up your face, now lift your chin up "
I lifted my chin as she did make-up and hair, she had some great concealer and planted fake big lashes in hopes no one would see the burst veins in my eye.
" Dress up"

I try to stand but my body was in so much pain
Me: I can't "
She took out her cigarette and started smoking
Her: you will and can you NOW GET DRESSED!!"

I looked at the dress laid out on the bed it's a red freakum dress, it's too short, to reveling I turned and looked at Ginger, so everything she told me it's true? ... Tears clouded my eyes
Her: welcome to Hell!!"
Me: Ginger please no... Please help me... He can't do this to me "

She laughed and threw a small plastic wrap on top of the dress, I looked at it and back at her
Me; I don't take drugs"
Her: I know, this all the help I could give you, one sniff will ease your nerves make your body ready, you won't feel a thing when they...."
The door opened and Oyama walked in he looked at Ginger and back at me,
Him: what the fuck is taking so long! "
My tears ran down while I held my mouth
Ginger: damn it look what you bloody did your makeup now! "
Obama looked at me,
Him: you have five minutes..." He said to me with his angry face
Him: Ginger... "
She walked to him and he held her hand,  Ginger slowly turned to look at me, and that smile said it all, that " you just lost this game! Bitch"
