Run (7) – Final Chapter
“Get on the ground!”
I tilted my head back, and saw in my upside down view, the officer drawing his gun from behind the fence. Another officer was fiddling with the lock on it. My head was swimming with confusion, and everything seemed slow to me. It’s hard to explain that feeling in words, but he finally got off of me, and I could breathe. I was too weak to get up, though.
As my husband was arrested, I was asked if I was alright, if I could breathe, and if I could answer any questions. The first words out of my mouth were “Angie … my daughter … she’s inside.”
The officer went in to get her while I tried to get the strength to get up from the ground. As my girl came running into the biggest hug she could give me, the blur of events was no longer indecipherable. There was a purpose to the fight in me. It was all for my baby.
“Mommy loves you so much,” I cried, probably squeezing her little frame too tightly, but I couldn’t help my relief, and she didn’t seem to mind. “God … I’m so proud of you, hunny.” When I finally pulled back to look at the fear in her eyes, I gushed over her again. “Are you okay?” I pulled her in so close, and somehow found the strength to get onto my knees to hold her properly. Something about caring for a child puts your comfort and your needs second. She needed me so badly. “My poor baby …”
“I’m so scared, Mommy …”
“It’s okay,” I assured her, appreciating each breath I could take. I’d never really appreciated a breath before, but I had gained a new appreciation for something I so often took for granted. Angelica was okay – that was all I had wanted. I had won. I could hardly believe it. Everything would be alright. Tears of joy mixed with the water that drenched my clothes and my hair. “Everything’s gonna be okay.”
After one of the officers helped me to a lounge chair in the back, I tried to steady my breathing, and gave them a brief description of what had happened.
Angelica was just so happy to be comforted, and I was being very careful with my words.

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.
