Parting is so difficult. We both had to work today. But after a break from work and just being in eachothers presence, this was hard. When she came home something was different. She seemed. To be hiding. So I asked her
" hey baby... What's wrong?"
" n-nothing why..." She trailed off.
" you seem like something is off or different. I'm a little worried about you" I reached my hand to hold her face in my hands and she flinched. Somethings definitely wrong. Tried convincin her to tell me but she wouldn't. This mentioned that there was seriously something wrong. When we laid down got bed she still hadn't told me. So as she slept on the other side of the bed I slowly removed the arm of her shirt off her shoulder and saw the bruises. They traveled half way down her arm. I slowly turned her on her back waking her softly.
" what are these from?" I asked her. Trying to sound like a friend rather than an enimy.
She quickly pulled up her sleeve and jumped outta bed
" they- they're n-n-nothing I s-swear" she stuttered.
" baby... you know you can talk to me... did someone hurt you? What. Happened..." I was trying to stay calm but it really wasn't working out in my favor.
She only stared at the floor. This was when I knew Someone had to of hurt her.
" baby please! What is going on!" Tears came to my eyes and when she looked at me I could tell she was upset.
She only broke down in front of me and collapsed to the floor.
I jump of the bed faster than I could think and I wrapped my arms around her frail shaking body. She took a second to fully leave her body in my hands. But when she did she laid her head in my chest and just sobbed. I kissed the top of her head and whispered to her how everything would be ok. After almost an hour and a half of only sobbing she lifted her head off my chest and I kissed her cheek. And brushed her hair out of her face with my finger tips.
" megan please tell me what's going on..." and all of a sudden it poured put of her like a river.
" my ex boy friend Simon has been following me around. Thats why I've had to change by job so many times. But today I showed up at work, I was the one opening shop today. And he was already there waiting. He dragged me to the back of the ware house across the street and just started hitting me. He avoided all places that would be seen... when another car showed up at the shop this morning he ran before I had time to react... I had to quickly fix my make up and pretend nothing happened... like before...." She trailed off.
" why wouldn't you tell me.." I was in shock.
" because he'd hurt you!!!! You really think thay if he wouldn't hurt you I would keep this from you!???!!!" Shes almost screaming.
" no of course not.... " I. Still processing what's going on.
" why aren't you afraid of him?" She asked sniffling away her tears.
" because. When someone hurts the ones I love. I show no mercy" and with this she had almost a devilish smile.
