Run (7) – Final Chapter
When he finally focused himself, he was able to straddle me on the ground again, and tried strangling me. I could tell by his instant frustration that he had no idea how long it would take for me to die, or how powerfully I would fight him back. I slapped, scratched, and hit him all that I could to get him to let up in even the slightest.
We were both lost in our anger and desperation until we heard the most piercing scream. Angelica. We both turned toward the house, where she was looking out from the window, to see the fear in her wide eyes. And as monstrous as my husband had become, he still couldn’t ignore Angelica’s horror at the situation. I guess a small piece of his past self remained. Thank god.
As he was distracted, I could finally hit his hands away, to keep the pressure from my neck so I could speak. “You’re … scaring her …”
He was still enraged, but I could tell from the look on his face that he felt remorse for having been so rough with me in front of her.
“Mommy and Daddy are just talking, Angel,” he said to her in heavy breaths, still keeping me pinned underneath him. That he was trying to pass this off as usual was nearly laughable. I might have scoffed if I had any breath to do so. “Come on. Come on, Angie.”
We both watched her run back into the house, and as he looked back down at me, his hands loosening. I saw fear in his eyes, because – for once – he could see he was losing the family he once loved. He could finally see what he had done, and how he had pushed us both away.
Now was my chance to try reasoning with him, if there was any reason left in his mind. “You need to stay away from us … for Angelica’s … sake … please …”
The immensity of the incident was starting to register in his mind as I coughed again, my whole body still trembling from shock. His hands moved from my neck to my stomach, and then he lifted them from my body. He almost looked to be afraid of himself, but that might have been my own confusion.

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.

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.
