Do it Again

Part 1

-Essence-

I'm just gettin out the shower and I hear Tyree on the phone and he sounds mad as hell. Somebody's messin with his money. Damn. I better stay in the bathroom for a lil bit, I don't wanna catch the physical end of his anger like last time-i'm goin on 4 months pregnant now, but he don't care, he'll slap me anywhere, anytime. Just when i think it's a good time to come out of the bathroom he bangs on the door.

Tyree: The fuck you doin in there, i gotta take a shit!

Me: Baby im on my way out just gimme two seconds

I roll my eyes and try to grab my lotion but my hands are shaking and I drop it on the floor.

Me: Shit!

Tyree: ima count to three before i break this door down and beat yo ass

Me: baby calm down im comin

I really shouldn't have said that...

Tyree: Calm down? These niggas fuckin wit my pay and you want me to calm down? A nigga cant even take a shit without hearin you bitch about somethin, get yo ass out the bathroom!

I grab my lotion and rush out of the bathroom, but not before Tyree snatches me up by my neck and growls into my ear.

Tyree: you gon learn to respect me

Me: Y-yes d-daddy

He looks me in my eyes like he's lookin for something...I tremble with every weak breath i can manage to take.

Tyree: you cheatin on me?

Me: No!

Tyree: yeah...cuz you know i would kill you and him right? and this baby

Me: y-yes, i know Ty

Tyree: iight then...when I get out the bathroom ima teach you a lesson about respect dont leave out this room

I knew what was coming and more tears came into my eyes.

Me: Ty please! I respect you. I love you, im not cheatin! I promise!

But he just walked in the bathroom and left the door open and sat on the toilet watchin me as i pretended to get dressed. I couldn't do much because of how my hands were shaking from fear. He was never like this when we first met. He was like... I dont even know, but we would be on the phone all night. We would just chill, go on dates and stuff. We were like best friends, but after we moved in together this nigga changed overnight...I don't wanna die at 19...I don't wanna end up in a coma with brain damage. I was almost about to start praying and my eyes were closed, but then i heard the toilet flush and froze.

Tyree: get yo ass on the bed you know what time it is

Me: Ty please

Tyree: what i say?

Me: get on the bed

Tyree: so unless you stupid do what the fuck i say

I climb on the bed and Ty undoes his belt and swings it at me with the hard buckle part. I squirm as i try to avoid the pain but the hard metal belt buckle kept comin back in different places...it never ended and eventually i faded into another place far away until it was over...
