Monday.

" Mama could you pass the salt please". It was a sunny morning in Cinque Terre. The Montgomery family was having their regular Monday breakfast in their small townhouse kitchen right by the lakeside." Of course amore mio, here you go," said a middle-aged woman with long beautiful brown hair and a green apron wrapping around her waist. " Thank you, Mama," said a young woman in her early twenties, she had long brown hair like her mother and green eyes as colorful as the man sitting beside her.


" Gloria, my god these eggs are fantastic," the man with grey hair and wrinkles said across the room with glee and joy in his voice. " Matteo watch your tone we're eating, none of the nonsense at the table!!"." Sorry, amore mio" He looked at the young woman and they both burst out into laughter. Soon after the older woman began to laugh with her family, after the family was done with their laughter they proceeded to have a normal conversation.


" So Sophia, what are your plans for this beautiful Monday morning huh". " Well papa I'm not too sure I haven't thought about it, it's only 10 am" Sophia chuckled to her father." Well if you plan on going out and staying out long you give your mother and me a shout alright". " I promise Papa, I'm finished with my food, may I be excused now," she said politely.


" Yes you may darling", Sophia's mother said, Sophia, grabbed up her plate and walked towards the kitchen. As she was cleaning up her plate, she looked outside the window as she normally does. She noticed a man and a woman arguing outside their door. The man didn't look too happy with his wife, she looked down for a second to put her dishes in the drying rack when she heard crying.


She bolted back up as she was done and she saw the man hitting the woman. She looked at him with rage in her eyes. This thought often comes to her when she sees or hears people she does not care for. She looked at the man with pure disgust as he was yelling at the poor woman on the ground.\She never understood how angry she could get and how sometimes she had the most ruthless thoughts. Sometimes she's wanted to cut people's limbs apart, set people on fire and burn everything they loved.


The man noticed her looking at them and started to come close to the window. He was yelling and screaming and she held a strong face. Sometimes she thought she had special powers. She remembered memories back from when she was just a child, how she could move things across from desk to desk and fool the teachers, how she could tug on her enemy's hair without having to get up and do it.


She finally came back to her senses and saw that the man was at her window shouting at her to go away and leave them alone. Sophia looked at him with rage and frustration as she wanted to do something about that horrid man. But that wasn't for me to do, that was his wife's decision." Mama, Papa I'm going out" Sophia yelled as she put on her shoes and her hat, she was wearing a beautiful green skirt and a white cropped blouse that complemented her chest and shoulders just right.


" Ti amo," she said across the room as she walked out the door and approached the man with a smug face. " you know beating your wife isn't right sir," she said to the man. " I don't care what you think little girl she disobeyed me so that's what the whore gets"." Mam are you alright", Sophia knelt to the woman who had bruises all over her face and arms. She looked at her husband and then looked back at Sophia.


" I'm okay thank you" She looked desperate and scared, and I couldn't help but feel bad for her. Most men do this to their loved ones and wife that's why I don't ever want to find love here and who knows if I ever will." I suggest you stop hurting her unless you want to get yourself hurt," said Sophia to the man on her left. " excuse me, are you threatening me you dumb bitch". He said as he spit all over Sophia's face. " Yes, it is a threat, sir".


He came closer and grabbed Sophia by the throat and she looked back at her window to see if her papa was there but he was still eating his breakfast. She looked at the man and kicked him right in the groin. As she was gaining her strength and air back she knelt to the woman once again." I can do something about this, I can hurt him if you want me to, you just have to say yes" Sophia looked at the poor woman and she noticed she was crying.


She could tell that she loved the man but she didn't want her and her kids to suffer anymore, she finally said to Sophia, "Please for my kids", " Of course". Sophia looked back at the man and laughed and thought to herself, I haven't done this in a while and I hope I don't get caught. The man finally got up and started to run towards me, I closed my eyes and thought about what I wanted to do to him. I opened my eyes and moved my hands to hit him in the face.


He looked at me with fear and confusion in his eyes because I didn't have to raise my hand. " how did you do that". " I don't know I guess it's in my blood" I looked at him and grinned. I slapped him again and again until he was on the ground bleeding. " what are you, some kind of witch.. a freak". " I don't know what I am but I like whoever I am" I looked at him and grabbed his throat and started to grasp tighter and tighter.


"If I ever see you as much as raise your hand to your wife or kids I will find you and I will rip you apart limb from limb until you're screaming for forgiveness so you understand me" I yelled in his face as he looked at me with complete horror." Yes, I understand just let me go!!"  I finally threw him down on the ground and came out of my trance. Apart from me felt sorry that I did that but another said he deserved what he got, that's what wife beaters get.


I went up to the wife and finally got up from the ground in shock. " please don't tell anyone about this" I said to her with a nice smile. " I promise, thank you for your help I appreciate it" I turned around to see both of my parents standing outside with shock on their faces." Get inside my love I think we need to talk". That is all my father could say after what he just watched.
