I wait for Julia to get home as I take out the glasses from the kitchen cupboard. Is my turn to make the family dinner. We have it twice a year and Julia doesn't even help me this time. I place the glasses on the table when I suddenly hear the front door open. I suggest that is Julia so I say ''you're finally here'' I hear someone laughing behind me. I turn around and there pedri stands with Julias bag in his hands ''Hey Nora nice to meet you again, Julia forgot some stuff in my house so though I could leave them here'' I look at him while I rub my head ''Yeah that's perfectly fine, how are you?'' I say while I still sets the table. Pedri sits down on a chair ''I'm good..I mean I have the most amazing girlfriend in the world'' I give pedri a smile as he said that ''I glad you're such a good boyfriend to her. She really deserve this'' Pedri gives me a small smile ''hey uhh..I heard about Marc, are you sure that you're fine?'' he says as I stop set the table. I stare down at the table ''well, i'm okey is just that I can't t stop thinking about him something..'' Pedri nods ''I understand I mean he cheated on you, none deserves that'' I look up to face pedri ''He told me that he cheated on you that's why you guys broke up'' Pedri says ''oh yes yes he did..'' I say while I feel guilt..did he take the blame just to make me look good. Fuck


''I have to go but it was nice to meet you again'' Pedri stands up and leave. I hear voices in the hall way and suddenly a smiling Julia comes inside the kitchen. I look at her and smirk ''what??'' Julia says as I throw her the underwear that was in her bag ''really'' Julia laughs at me as we both burst of laughter. 


Our parents comes and sits down the table. We have a good time except that my dad is here..I don't have a good relationship with him and I haven't seen him for months. The reason why my mom and him broke up is because of an abusive relationship. He is still abusive but I will try everything to not think about it tonight. ''Nora, have you met a guy yet?'' Julias dad ask me ''Marco she's dating Marc don't you remember'' Julias mom says. I look up ''we are not together anymore, It didn't work out'' I say ''oh I'm so sorry honey'' She says ''No is absolutely fine, I'm over it'' I say as I can see my dads anger build up inside of him. I knew how much he liked me and Marc together and now I probably made him more angrier. 


The dinner ends and we leave Julias house. I sit in the backseat of my dads truck as he drives me home. My mom left for work because she has a nightshift so I have to stay at my dads for the night. We arrive at his place..I don't know what to feel or do but I try to act cool.  I walk inside as place my backpack in the hall way. I walk too the kitchen to get some water when my dad speak up ''Why didn't you tell me about Marc'' I look at him ''Because I knew you would get upset'' I say as my dad opens up a beer..this isn't going to end well at all. ''you do always disappoint Nora'' he says as he points at me ''I'm sorry I-'' my dad cuts me off ''THEN WHY DID YOU BROKE UP WITH HIM'' he says as he throw a vase down to the ground. I look at the vase and then at him.


ABUSIVE!!



My dad walks up to me and punch me down to the floor. He grabs my hair to drag he up to him..he punch me again but this time he made my nose bleed. I lay on the floor with pain. I have to get out of here. I stands up and starts to run to hallway. I can hear my dads footsteps behind me but I grab my shoes and my backpack as fast as I can. I open the door and just run as far as I can get for him house.



I run and after awhile I slow down to walk. I look behind me and he's gone. I sit down on the edge of the round to catch my breath but suddenly I just burst into tears..I know this is wrong to do but I feel like he's the only one I feel comfort with..


I pick up my phone and start calling Hector. He picks up ''hector..hector please pick me up'' I say while my voice breaks ''I'm coming now just send the location'' Hector hangs up and I send him my location. I sit there for about 15 minutes until I see car lights. I lift my head and I see Hectors car. he stop his car beside me as I stand up..My nose is still swollen from the punch. I can see Hector get out of his car with a worried face. ''Nora what happened'' I walk up to him.  Hectors drags me in for a hug. The comfort he gives me is crazy..maybe he's the right one. I can feel his breath as his hand stroke my hair.


I think I'm in love..
