Learning To Love Again...

Chapter 3🦋

Saturday...

We Were In The Mall Shopping. I Wore A Yellow Long Sundress Dress That Stopped At My Ankles And Of Course I Wore My Shades. I Had A Left Side Part So My Hair Could Cover My Stitches. We Were In Another Store For Him While He Picked Up Whatever He Wanted. He Swiped The Card To Pay For His Things And I Walked Away. He Caught Up To Me And I Kept Looking Ahead.

"Why You Have To Wear That Dress?" He Asked.

"When I Asked What You Thought You Said You Liked It." I Reminded.

"Well Now I Don't. You Dressed Like A Hoe." He Told Me.

"I'm Sorry." I Mumbled.

What Hoe Gone Wear A Long Sleeve Dress That Stops At My Ankle? If He Don't Gone Somewhere. See This The Shit I Be Talking About.

"Give Me The Car Keys Im Driving." He Held His Hand Out.

"Derrick I Haven't Even Brought Me One Thing. We've Only Been Shopping For You." I Sighed.

"Well That's Your Fault. Now Come On I Got Somewhere To Go." He Rushed.

"No." I Argued.

He Snatched My Purse And Walked Away. I Chased After Him And Sighed.

"Derick Give Me My Purse." I Called After Him.

He Kept Walking And Threw It On The Ground. I Was Finna Pick It Up But A Man Already Did. He Handed It To Me And We Smiled At Each Other.

"Let Me Guess That's The Boyfriend Who Left You In The Rain?" He Asked.

It Was Him, Babyface. I Cleared My Throat And Spoke Up.

"Yeah. That's Him." I Nodded.

"He Doesn't Deserve You. He Truly Don't." He Smiled.

"I Know. But I Can't Leave Him." I Said.

"You Can't Or You Don't Want To?" He Raised A Brow.

"I Can't. I Want To, But He Won't Let Me Leave. I Don't Even Love Him Anymore." I Admitted.

"From What I Seen He Feels The Same Way About You Ms." He Trailed Off.

"Alana." I Finished.

"He Doesn't Love You Ms. Alana. He Just Loves What You Deal With From Him." He Stated.

"I Know. I Just Don't Think Theres No Hope For Me To Get Away From Him." I Sighed.

"Well You Have My Number Still. Remember You Ever Wanna Get Away From Him And See What Real Love Is. Call Me." He Walked Away.

I Pushed Up My Shades And Seen Derrick Standing There By The Door. I Braced Myself And Walked To The Exit. I Acted As If I Didn't See Him And Got In The Car. He Got In As Well And Backhanded Me. I Held My Face And Looked At Him.

"So That's The Man You Fucking?" He Asked.

"No." I Shook My Head.

"It Seems Like Y'all Are Fucking." He Told Me.

He Drove Home And He Beat Me Half To Death And Left The House. I Can't Keep Dealing With This. I Can't Keep Letting Him Treat Me Like This. I Grabbed My Phone And Dialed A Number.

"Hello?"
