As I sat on the couch next to Giovanna, my heart felt heavy with the weight of the words I was about to speak. I took a deep breath and looked into her eyes, seeing nothing but love and concern reflected back at me.
"Giovanna, there's something I need to open up to you about," I began, my voice barely above a whisper. "I...I was in an abusive relationship before I met you, You know that. But it wasn't just mental,shay could get very physical with me. She'd hit me whenever I was so called annoying, beat me after I left her and found a donor and got pregnant with savanni. I was convinced no one would want me after her anyways and I wanted to be a mother badly so I went ahead, she didn't like that and called me a slut and a cheater on Instagram live. "
"She even went as far as selling a tape of us to her fans for 50 dollars. "
Giovanna's eyes widened in shock, her hand reaching out to grasp mine in a comforting gesture. "Claudia, she actually put her hands on you? Why didn't you tell me sooner? I actually got a reason to fight her ass now. "
Tears welled up in my eyes as I recounted the horrors of my past relationship with Shay. The physical and emotional abuse, the constant fear and manipulation. I told Giovanna how Shay had threatened my family, making me feel trapped and unable to escape.
"I...I still kept in contact with her after we broke up," I admitted, feeling ashamed. "I was scared of what she might do if I tried to cut her off completely."
Giovanna's face twisted in anger, her grip on my hand tightening. "Mama, how could you let her continue to have power over you like that? You deserve so much better than that."
I hung my head in shame, feeling the weight of my own guilt crushing me. But then, Giovanna's gentle touch lifted my chin, forcing me to meet her gaze once more.
"You are strong, mama. You are brave. And you are loved," she whispered, her voice filled with emotion. And then, without hesitation, she leaned in and pressed her lips to mine in a tender kiss.
In that moment, as we sat together on the couch in the dimly lit living room, I felt a wave of warmth and comfort wash over me. Gio's love and support enveloped me like a protective shield, banishing the shadows of my past and filling me with hope for a brighter future.
And as we held each other close, I knew that with Giovanna by my side, I could finally begin to heal from the scars of my past and move forward into a future filled with love, trust, and happiness.
