*Kate POV
"... It was about 5 months ago. It was just like any other day of work. Each year though we add new employees. So we got 3 new peeps up at the office, all experienced in some sort of way. We were all forced to meet them, shake their hands, and eat lunch together. Ends up I caught my eye on one of the newbies. Slightly taller than me, hazel eyes, slick hair, very handsome I must say. After a month of working with him, He asked me to dinner and confessed his love to me. Excited, I did say yes to his offer of being his girlfriend."
Mark nods, paying close attention to me.
"After another month, things started getting worse. He wouldn't talk to me. Whenever I went over, he ordered me around like a slave. When I didn't do the task, he would hit me. I just left afterwards."
Mark covers his mouth.
"The problem was, I loved him with all my heart. Work eventually was a drag for me. Days were longer. I just wasn't putting in all my effort. He decided to call me one night, just to apologize. He ended up hitting me and kicking me and doing things he shouldn't have done. I couldn't... even work the next day..."
I covered my face and started to cry.
Mark leans over and hugs me, crying also.
"We... broke up.... a month ago." I couldn't stop sniffling.
"I've been through the same thing." Mark says, teary-eyed. He leans over and kisses me on the cheek. He looks at me and wipes away my tears.
"Kate, I'll always be here for you. I will take care of you and be yours forever. Will you do the same?"
I look at Mark.
"Yes." I say.
He pulls me in and kisses me.
