"Move please", she tried to get by everyone but she felt like every time she pushed someone, there was another one to replace them.
The heavy rain and the poorly lighted neighbourhood could not help her see. The blue and red lights of the ambulance and police cars made her splitting headache worse.
"Move! Get off the way" she kept pushing but her words kept falling on deaf ears. She tried to get past the yellow 'do not cross' police tape but a strong set of arms, that she knew too well, tried to keep her back, hide her from the world's cruelty.
"Get off" she elbowed him in the ribs.
"M'am please stay off" A police officer tried to make her stay behind.
"It's my house!" She was trying so hard to hold the tears "It's my house I need to go" she pushed him aside and went forward. Please don't be... she started to think but her world stopped when she saw the paramedics come out from her house, with a black zipped bag on a stretcher.
"NO!" Her legs were numb and could not support her "No! No please no" looking up, tears mixed with rain "Why?" She looked like she was yelling at god. She felt that same set of arms helping her stand, shielding her from the rain and the pain.

Decadent
My hand slaps against my mouth as I try to shut myself up. Don't make too much noise...or he'll hear you. A vehicle's door opens then slams shut. I don't hear footsteps...but as the minutes go by I begin to hear them; the footsteps get louder and louder and louder, matching the sound of my thundering heart. That's when I see his shadow cast over the ditch...over the place where I tried to hide. "Well," he says with a smile in his voice. "I wonder where he could've gone...the footprints stop here...so I wonder if he just...disappeared?" My body begins to tremble. I can feel it now. The pain. I can feel the pain already. He jumps down into the ditch...he stands directly in front of me, with his back facing me. My hand presses harder against my mouth as I try to suppress my whimper, but it's way too late now. But his body tenses up when he hears it. He laughs bitterly as he turns around slowly, and his eyes cut through my camouflage easily. "There you are."Complete

This story was NOT written in an entertaining purpose. I talk about real life events that actually happened to me. I chose to blur out and ignore things that were too personal to me, and to him, but what is written in those pages is true. Please keep in mind that nothing of this was written for readers to enjoy. It was written for me to try to finally move on, and I share it in hope that I might manage to help whoever is or was in my situation. Thank you if you choose to stay with me for a few minutes of your life. I'd love for you to meet Matt. If you want to do so as well, then I invite you to turn the page. -GenComplete

The leaving 11 years on on going stopped up dating for a awhile
The leaving. It was hard, tragic , painful, yet it had to be done, I needed to save my life. I didn't want to start again, this would be the story of finding myself, pulling myself back together, reuniting the happy go lucky youngster I had once been. The shock of leaving took more of a toll on me than I thought it would. I had asked two people to help me move out of the house I had shared with my partner for 8 years, we had been together 23 years in total. The move was done in total secrecy, my partner could never know in advance, it was a very scary time. I had moved various things out of the house and secured a rent on a property nearby. The house I picked was near the School the children went to, and my oldest lad was going to be near his best friend. My Mother told me of the property it was advertised on the web, we both went and had a look, even that was scary, I didn't want to be seen by anyone and became paranoid that I would be caught out. For many months I lived on a new kind of fear, the fear of someone finding out that I planned to leave my abusive partner, though of course no one knew my seemingly happy, funny, generous partner was abusive. Finding the house was one thing, getting the various companies to connect the house and exchanging the information of my current address so they could varify that I was, who I said I was almost drove me mad. The day came to leave, My Mother and a very dear Friend came round as early as possible, we packed as much as we could. This included taking the boys clothes, bedding, toys, stuff from the garden, my stuff. We had 3 cars the packing seem to take all day. By the end we had to get going to be able to unpack, leaving me time to pick up the boys from School and settle them in their new home. I couldn't do it at first,I started to cry then scream, to leave the world I had put so much of my life into, and now in a split second would be leaving was breaking my heart.Complete
