Torn Between Two

Putting the key in the lock there was an unpleasant feeling starting to flow through my body, something just didn’t feel right. Opening the door there was Charles; standing there with nothing but pure rage in his eyes. I began to become horrified but before getting the chance to feel anything else he raised his hand and at that moment I knew what was coming next; it was going to be anything but nice. Slap! There it was! The back of Charles hand went across my face knocking me to the ground. Grabbing my cheek in shock because I knew nothing of what was going on plus the stinging was unbearable. Looking up at Charles there he stood screaming at the top of his lungs. “BITCH you have been fucking around on me! You are a no good ass whore who is worth nothing but the ground you are laying on!” It toke a minute before I could focus in on what he was saying. Charles had hit me so hard that my eyes couldn’t focus and there was a horrible ringing in my ear so everything was blurring together.

Standing up still in a bit of a daze he was still yelling. “Bitch you have been fucking around on me!” I stood there in shock with my face stinging from the blow he had given me trying to plead my case. “I am not doing anything,” screaming out hoping he was not going to hit me again! “You are such a fucking liar I smell it all over your trifling ass! You have been doing this shit for months and it is so fucking obvious. Bitch I didn’t teach you anything! You never want to have sex with me anymore, when I want it you always have an excuse and that means you are giving it up to someone else! I know that you are fucking around on me! The secret phone calls you are always having and not to mention you are always gone! You are never were you tell me you are going to be! I am sick and tired of this shit Sonya! Who the fuck is he!?” Charles screamed out with much hate in his voice and it was scaring me not knowing what he was going to do next.

“Charles I am telling you that it is no one but you!” In a frightful voice I tried to convince him that I was telling the truth but that didn’t do it. Slapping me again but even harder than the first time, but this time I was ready, I didn’t fall to the ground, I took the hit like a soldier. I could tell he knew something but I was not going to tell him anything, I was going to keep on with the innocent role no matter how many slaps I had to take. “Charles I am telling you that it is no one else, I just have been working really hard because of that new promotion! I am telling you that it is no one else but you” I screamed out again! Looking at me with disguise; I could see the red flames of anger growing higher and hotter in his eyes. “I don’t know why you want to keep lying to me! I can tell that something is going on behind my back! I have seen the phone bill, the text messages, and I have even called him! So don’t keep fucking lying bitch I damn near know everything” he yelled even louder than before! Goose bumps began to form on my body as the chills ran down my back.
