The stress of the past week had been overwhelming. My body felt so heavy as I fumbled with the keys to unlock the door.

Of course...Justin was waiting for me, his arms crossed and his expression dark.My heart sank as soon as I saw him,I knew that he was going to be angry with me.

"What the fuck, Hazel?" he yelled as he saw me. "Do you have any idea how worried I was?"

I tried to explain that I just needed a night out, but Justin wasn't having it. He started to yell even louder, accusing me of being irresponsible and selfish. I couldn't defend myself against his words and I felt so trapped.

As the argument escalated, I started to feel scared. I never knew what Justin was capable of in his rage, so I tried to calm him down, but it only seemed to make things worse.

Finally, after what felt like hours of arguing, Justin stormed out of the house. I was left alone, it took a few minutes for me to realise how much I had been shaking, as soon as I realised just how much he petrified me, I started crying. Things couldn't go on like this, but I didn't know how to fix it. All I could do was sit there, feeling scared and alone.
