Beaten, Working Toward Recovery Chapter 4
Dana sat down on the couch putting her face in her hands embarrassed about her outburst, but still crying and repeating. “He almost killed you.” Alice sat down beside Dana wishing more then anything she could change what happen that night. “I’m sorry, I wish I could change that night, I wish I could go back and have never spoken to those men. Dane, if I could go back and change things I would, and we would have never gone out. But I can’t, I can’t change things, and I hate it, because if I could I would have chosen not to partied as much so maybe my reflexes would have been better, or maybe I would have had enough awareness of what was going on to have walked toward the street.” By this time the tears were falling as hard from Alice’s eyes as they were from Dana’s. “Dana, if I could change things, you wouldn’t have been there, so would have never had to see what you saw. But I can’t change what happen, I can’t. My biggest fear is that when you realize whose fault this was, you’re never going to forgive me for causing it. And that is the only thing I can’t live with.”
Dana for her part was starting to regain her composure. “Al, it wasn’t your fault. It was the men who assaulted you fault. Don’t ever say it was your fault again.” Alice wiped her eyes. “Dana you said it yourself I shouldn’t have spoken to them.” Dana just comprehending what she had implied tried to explain it to Alice. “Al, I do wish you hadn’t spoken to them, but we don’t know if anything would have been different. For all we know they may have pick me if you hadn’t of said anything. We don’t know, and I shouldn’t have said that. They were out to hurt someone and we just happen to be at the wrong place at the wrong time. I know that, it just doesn’t make it easier for me to get over the fact that I almost watched you get killed. And Alice, if that would have happened, that is the one thing I couldn’t live with.”
Shane stood by the door watching this exchange, wondered if these two ladies were going to be able to work this out, or if this would slowly start eating away their relationship, she knew she couldn’t stand there and not say anything. She realized both women were so wrapped up in each other they had forgotten she was even there, so she decided it was time to step in.

of ways. It’s horrible to visualize

hi there, i agree with you totally about alice’s character, the “im ok and can handle anything syndrome” because its me too. The story is great .. post soon please.
This is a great story. Thank you.
i am in such denial…i found myself focusing on the whole ‘couples’ therapy and their pending relationship, romantic angle rather then looking too close at the pain. so i made myself go back and read it again. as i said after the last chapter, i think this is your best work so far.
Deb, I am luving u man…this is sum deep shit..they r lving in deep shit..but im an optimist & im thinking it’ll get better.i Luv it..please continue soon…thnk you 4 writing this piece..Post s00n..
Deb, this is your best work to date. It’s so painfully real and addressed an important issue that society has turned a blind eye to. Thank you for writing this.
wonderful chapter, and i agree on your view of Alice. I’m glad things will get better for them, keep going, it’s brilliant.
