And I really do think it was pure luck that I kneed him in the groin in all of my struggling. I was even confused when his hands left me, so I could float to the surface again. Once I had, I didn’t even wait to catch my breath or investigate – I swam as fast as I could to the edge for the easiest way out, and fell up the stairs, half choking the whole way.
“Fuck …” he groaned, his face dipping in the water as he was hunched over in pain. Good. I held onto the rail to help myself up, and on the ground. I couldn’t seem to stop coughing and gasping for air, but I still kept an eye on him. I thought I might throw up.
I remember thinking I was so cold because I was shaking, but I’m sure it was a consequence of the shock. I had almost died, and as I tried to take deep breaths in, I realized how close I had been to blacking out.
I don’t remember hearing or seeing him get out of the pool to approach me, but the pain of his kick was undeniable. I fell onto my side, winded again. Something about a kick – especially near the chest – knocks the wind right out of you.
I have no idea how I found the energy to keep fighting him, but I lunged back at him in anger. My baby was inside that house, and if anything happened to me, there was no way I could protect her. I couldn’t take the possibility of losing Angelica forever – I wouldn’t.
As we fought each other on the grass in the backyard, he was mostly trying to strangle me still. I don’t know what it was about cutting off the air to my lungs, but he seemed to enjoy doing it.
“What’s … happened to you …?” he panted, losing his leverage when I tried twisting his wrist.
“Someone … who respects me.” The resentment in my voice was so thick.
I still can’t believe I was able to fight him off for so long, even as tall and as strong as he was. Although not quite significant, I was able to cause some damage of my own, and it was absolutely empowering. Horribly violent, but after the years of his abuse I had been subjected to, it gave me such hope. They were only a series of moments I had strung together in my mind, but it meant something to me. It meant that the situation wasn’t hopeless – maybe it never was. There was a chance for me after all.

You have to stand up to abusive partners whether it’s physical or verbal abuse in order to reclaim your life. Excellent story. I can’t wait for another one from that fertile imagination of yours.
At times I was so afraid for Tina and Angelicabut I’m extremely happy that she finally stood up to him. Most abusers are cowards and don’t know how to handle a woman that fights back, it throws them off their game. Angie was very brave to call the police, so proud of her for doing so. And Bette, well, she is just the greatest ever. It’s a good thing Bette was not there because she would have killed him and he well deserved it. I think though that Tina should have asked Angelica if she really wanted to visit with him after what she witnessed, I wouldn’t think she would want to see him except to spit on him. I never understood how he found them to begin with and when he caught her in the grocery store, it was obvious that he had been stalking them. It was a great story nevertheless. Thanks for bringing it to us.

That was just a wonderful story. Hard to read and I’m sure harder for you to write but you did such a damn good job. Thank you.
As difficult as some parts of this story was to read, I truly loved how you showed the growing relationship between Bette and Tina/Angie and Bette. The journey may have been hard but the destiny(nation) was worth it.
