"I miss him so much Mercy. I'm so freaking stressed with all the girls. Aaron doesn't help at all and he's always at the bar and I know he's cheating on me."

I sobbed into the phone.

"Don't cry Pam."

"Why? I have nothing left to live for anymore. Why should I live a miserable, loveless life to be abused until I die? I might as well beat him to it!"

I sobbed.

"Pam...those baby girls need you."

"Fergal can get custody of them. I have no use in this world except to me a punching bag! I can't do this Mercy."

I continued sobbing.

"Hold on. There's someone who wants to talk to you."

Mercades said.

"Pam?"

I heard Fergal say.

"Fergal? I miss you."

"I miss you too Pam. I miss all of my girls."

"He's beating me Fergal. I can't live like this anymore."

I cried.

"I know. Listen, I spoke to a lawyer. The only way to get out of this contract is for us to get married. So...do you want to get married?"

Fergal asked.

"Fergal...I've only known you for 9 months. I can't marry you. I'm sorry. The only way I see getting out of this is my suicide."

I sobbed.

"Pam, please don't-"

I threw my phone to the side as I sobbed into my hands. I got up off the ground, walked into the bathroom, and grabbed a razor blade. I slid it down my arm as I sighed.

I don't want to die. But it's the only way I can truly get out of this relationship. And I'm finally gonna be free.
