I wake up to silence and an empty space next to me again, I sit on the edge of the bed and sigh. "He would leave me again," I say to myself. I eventually get up and get dressed again, then I walk downstairs to find Pinkly excited to see me. I smile and walk over. "Hi, beautiful!" She barks, and jumps around. I pick her up and think, Should I let her on the couch with me? Brian doesn't really like pets on the couch.

I hesitate, but sit on the couch with Pinkly in my arms. "Don't tell daddy, okay?" She sniffs my face and licks my nose, I guess that means you won't tell.

Not even five minutes go by, and Brian walks into the living room. "Are you fucking kidding me, Mackenzie?" I look at him and say nothing. "You know I don't like pets on the couch, how many times do I have to tell you!" 
"I'm sorry... he was jus-" Brian cuts me off, 
"I don't care!" He picks up Pinkly and sets her down, he then grabs my arm tight and I gasp.

"You just don't seem to want to listen to me today!" He squeezes harder, "You're not answering calls, texts, my questions, you deny sex three times and you ignore my simple little rule!"
"Brian... stop, that really hurts." I beg, but he only squeezes harder and I start to cry. "You're an abusive asshole!" I don't regret saying that.
He slaps me across the face with his other hand, and grabs my face. "Your attitude is getting out of hand! I'm sick your fucking attitude, you worthless cunt!" I start to cry, 
"I want out! I want a divorce!" I scream.

Brian looks at me angry, and very pissed. "That's too fucking bad! You're stuck with me forever."
"You don't even love me!" I yell. He takes his other hand and squeezes my other arm, 
"Don't you ever think that way!" He lets go of my arms and kisses my cheek, then walks out of the living room.

I break down into tears and look down at my left arm, It's already starting to bruise!
