"I don't know how your so calm"
Carolyn whispered out as she wiped the tears from her eyes.
A part of me feels extremely bad for her, but another part of me is fed up with her. I have been helping Carolyn get her life back on track after her husband beat her ass, and kicked her out of her house naked. Every time I have placed her in a shelter she somehow allows her Husband Marcus to sweet talk her and she runs back to him, when I say this is my final time helping her I mean it. She has to want to help herself as well, I don't mean to be heartless or mean, but I feel very strongly about domestic violence. I watched my mother get beat by my father over and over again, but she never left, my father ended up beating her to death then killed himself.
If it wasn't for my grandmother I would have ended up in the system.
Flash forward ten years later and I ended up marrying a sorry excuse of a man, that not only cheated on me, but faked amnesia so he could be with his mistress Scott free.
I knew something wasn't right after my husband at the time Mark got into a car accident, and I went to check on him at the hospital. His nurse was too damn touchy feely and she was giving me dirty ass looks.
Mark told me to just chill, and that I was just being insecure.
Mark had been the perfect husband right up until I got pregnant, then he began to slowly change and become cold towards me.
I also overheard him on the phone with someone saying that he didn't want to be married to me anymore, and that he was just waiting until I had the baby to leave me. I beat him to the punch and filed for divorce six months into my pregnancy, I'm not in the business of keeping someone who doesn't want to be kept.
When I had Mark served with divorce papers he ended up signing over his rights to our unborn son. I guess he thought I was going to be sad, but I was elated to be able to be rid of him, and his claim to my son.
How I found out that Mark was faking having amnesia was because His boss the chief of police Fitzgerald Grant told me.
Fitz as I call him, told me he overheard Mark talking to his partner Marcus about how stupid I was to believe he had loss his memory.
Little did Mark know that I peeped game and saw what he was doing all along.
It's been almost two years since I divorced Mark, and had my son.
I also married Fitz right before my son turned one year old.
We have kept our relationship under wraps because he has been undercover for a while.
He is working on exposing Mark and Marcus on corruption and also taking bribes. There also has been claims of police brutality when it came to Mark and Marcus, Fitz felt that for my protection and our sons protection. Yes you heard me right, our son. Fitz adopted Finn my sweet baby boy, right after we got engaged. He didn't want to get married without Finn having his last name, and Fitz has truly been the father that Finn deserves.
The only person who knows that me and Fitz are married is my best friend Sasha who lives in another state. Other than that I have made it seem like I'm a single mother raising my son on my own living my best little life. Fortunately for me my grandmother left me enough money to last a life time, and then some she was a very smart woman when it came to investing her money, she lived a very frugal, but made sure I had the best education money could buy, and also taught me the value of a dollar.
I graduated high school and college with honors and decided to open a small non profit to help families that the government felt made too much money when they really didn't. I mostly work remotely, but have a small office, and staff.
