Being Married to Sal

Sal, I love you

I woke up to Emily screaming and ran to her room. Joe was there and about to leave. "Put my daughter down," I growled. "Why should I? She's mine now. My child is dead because of you." "Because I never wanted a kid with you. You did it without my permission. You violated me," I hissed. He laughed and put his other leg outside the window. "Joe I swear to fucking god I will kill you." "You couldn't kill me. You're too weak." "Try me. I won't hesitate to kill you." "Oh, I didn't know you were the tough one in this relationship. I've always thought it was Sal. Guess not." "Sal isn't weak. I just lived with more boys," I glared.

"Bullshit. He doesn't have the balls to harm anyone." "Oh yes, he does. Don't fucking change the subject." "Don't lie to yourself. Sal isn't a good father. He doesn't deserve to be a father. You're just using him, so you can get more famous." "How dare you say that! I am not! I would never use Sal! You just want to ruin our relationship!" "He doesn't deserve you. You're pathetic. You should've died. The world would be a happier place. You're just a depressed 20 year old." "I am not! You're just a fucking rapist!"

He laughed and jumped out the window. I jumped out after him hurting my ankle. I groaned but ran after Joe. I wish it wasn't 2:00 in the morning because I could get help then. I then realized where Joe was going. No. Not the cliff. I ran faster and saw him in my view. I came to the cliff and stopped at the edge. The water was calm. I then got pushed and screamed. The air was knocked out of my lungs and falling felt like I was in slow motion. I then hit the water.

I couldn't breathe. I was always bad at breathing underwater and that meant the only thing that could save me now was Sal. I felt myself slipping into unconsciousness. I felt myself lay on the sand and closed my eyes tightly. I never got to tell Sal I loved him. I'll never see him or Emily again. The last vivid thought I had was Sal, I love you.
