Abusive Husband

How it started

I was on my way to pick up Lizette and Jr from day care before I went home from work. On our 30 minute drive to the house, they were telling me about a party they wanted to go to on Friday. I told them I'd talk to my husband Isaac and if he said yes, that it would be fine with me.

When we pulled up in the driveway, it was already getting dark. I didn't know if Isaac had went to work today. But his Black Escalade was parked in the front.

As I unlocked the door, I saw Isaac turn on the porch light and he had a beer in his hand. The kids ran to him they hugged him and he told them to shower and they went to their own restrooms.

" Are you okay? " I asked him while I started throwing beer bottles in the kitchen trash can.

" Where were you? " he asked in a drunk voice.

" At work. And I picked up the kids. Did you go to work today? "

" I called in "

" Why would you do that "

" I woke up late. And I had a headache "

" So you decided to drink? "

He started walking towards me. I turned to the refrigerator, and was going to bend down to put the drinks in there. He grabbed my arm. I immediately saw white in his nostrils. He looked at me.

" Let's go to the room. " he said. " I need to finish cleaning. You can go. I'll be there when I finish. " he let go of me. As he walked off I could hear him mumble.

I walked in the room. I didn't see him. I then heard the door slam. Isaac pushed me to the bed and my purse fell on the floor. " Wtf do I always tell you!? " He got on me and ripped my shirt off. " Isaac stop! " He raised his hand and I hit him with the lamp on the side of his stomach. He then grabbed my hair and banged my head on head board of the bed. I kept hitting his body and yelling at him to get off. I heard running in the hall, I couldn't let my kids see this. " Get the fuck off! " I punched him in his face three timed and he fell over when I kneed him. I got off the bed got the car keys and opened the door to my room " kids get in the car! " the kids ran to their rooms and I hear their closets swing open. Isaac got up and pushed me to the wall by the restroom in the hallway, and placed his hands around my neck and began choking me. I couldn't breathe! I heard my kids crying. he then pushed me in the restroom floor with his hands still around my neck. I shut the restroom door with my foot so my 7 and 5 year olds wouldn't see this. I grabbed his arms and pulled him next to me, I punched him in the face as hard as I could and as I got up and opened the door I saw my kids sitting against the wall hugging each other crying. I was about to walk out and he grabbed my ankle and I fell. I yelled and I gave the keys to Lizeth so she could go to the car with Jr. " Just unlock it sit in the back! " I yelled. Isaac took his gun out his holster and I kicked his gun and it fell in the toilet. " Stop!!!!!! " I yelled. I turned on the shower. When he tried getting his gun I kicked him in the tub. he was laying in there and tried getting out I grabbed a towel and wet it. I put my fingers up his nose. Then I ran out. I locked the door to the house and I head him yell my name. I opened the gate and got in the car.

" Mommy I want daddy!!! " Jr cried

" Daddy's sick right now baby we're gonna go sleep at grandmas okay? " I said trying not to cry.

" Why were you crying mommy? " Lizette asked me crying and breathing hard.

" Mommy fell I'm okay just be quiet baby mommy needs to think. "

I've gone thru this. I've just never put my kids through this. I don't want this for them. I know how it feels to be a kid and go through that not being able to do anything but cry. I hated myself for not being with Isaac as much. I know its because we've been distant from each other.

" Mommy slow down you're going to fast! Mommy!! " errrrrrrrrr!!!!! I stopped thinking in my head because my kids began to cry loud. And cars kept honking at me.
