The following is almost completely a true story. Trigger warning.
“You are a filthy whore” he said, shaking my arm. I was trying to drive. I rolled my eyes It would serve him right if I got in an accident.. The light in front of me was turning red and I slowed.
Having stopped, I turned to him and said. “You are a an asshole.”
His face got this shocked look on it and he said, “Oh oh, the whore speaks.” He spat on me then.
I had it by then. I Knew there was no way I could win with words because he always had the faster mouth. picked up the chilled coffee cup in between the seats and I Opened it and threw it in his lap.
He froze a moment. And then he took his hand and backhanded me right across the face, breaking my nose and tearing my eyes. “You bitch you fucking bitch” he was screaming at me, examining his pants.
Luca began to scream in the backseat. He was miserable and sick of screaming. I touched my nose because it hurt and I pulled my hand away and found blood dripping out. I looked in the mirror and there was blood everywhere.
“Fuck!” Gavin had finally noticed what he had done. “Fuck! I didn’t mean to, fuck!”
His hand was on my face probably trying to hide what he had done. I pushed it away and snapped, “don’t touch me!”
But Gavin had noticed something else. “Fuck, turn, go back to Fairfield quick!”
“No, you are going to work, I don’t want to see you for the rest of the day.” I rose my voice the light had changed and I began to push to gas.”
“No, Hanna, turn, turn.” I glanced at him he was absolutely panicked. What was wrong with him?
“Why should I?” I asked. But it wasn’t a bad idea to pull over I needs to take care of my nose and I needed to take care of Luca.
“Those people!” He gasped, he put a tissue on my nose then I assumed to cover the evidence.
I jerked away and looked around. There was a car driving parallel to us with a young couple looking straight at us and waving there arms and pointing. I assumed they had seen us. I relaxed. Well this was something good. Not that I wanted him arrested at the moment. I wanted to leave him and I didn’t want the dog or to do anything with his crap but maybe an overnight stay wouldn’t be a bad idea.
