I felt my eyes get glossy and ran downstairs. "Rose, what's wrong?" Mrs. Brown asked me. "I'll be back, I have to change my clothes" I said before running out the door.

I sighed as I closed up the paper, grabbing the yams. I heard my phone chime and checked my phone.
What the hell was that about? She was so quick to not tell me what happend. What's going on?

I walked in the house and changed my clothes.

I got back to the house and seen David. "Can you help me with the bags?" He asked me. I nodded and grabbed bags, bringing them into the house.
I walked in the living room with the kids and other adults, sitting on the floor when I was done. I was scared when I felt someone touching my shoulder, making me flench.
"Calm down, Rose. It's just me" David told me. I calmed down and pulled him to the floor with me, terrified. Dinner came around and I held onto David's hand as I ate.
I looked at the chair in front of me and was terrified to see it empty. I felt a hand on my pants, making me snap the wrist. His cousin stood up and everyone was terrified.
"DON'T YOU EVER disrespect me like that EVER AGAIN" I yelled in anger. "What the hell did you do to her?" David asked his cousin.

"I didn't do anything" his cousin said. I nodded, laughing darkly. I walked in the kitchen.

I was terrified as I watched Rosemary walk in the kitchen. I watched as she came out with her hands behind her back.
I was terrified as she pushed it lightly yet harshly into his neck. "Rose, please don't do this. Whatever happened to you, please don't kill him for it.
David, told us what happened to you. I know that you're doing this out of self defense, but please don't hurt yourself" momma begged Rose. Rose slowly put the knife down and I pulled her back across the table.
She started throwing the knives left and right until finally it hit his arm.
I looked down at her as she stood up. "You know I'm with him and you do this? What the hell is wrong with you?" She asked. She stood up tears fell from her eyes.
"This is why I have trust issues and feel like no one loves me; wether it's rape or even abuse, I always end up hurt. ⁱ ᵈᵒⁿ'ᵗ ᵉᵛᵉⁿ ᵏⁿᵒʷ ʰᵒʷ ⁱ'ᵐ ᵃᵇˡᵉ ᵗᵒ ˡᵒᵛᵉ ᵈᵃᵛⁱᵈ ʷʰᵉⁿ ⁱ ᵈᵒⁿ'ᵗ ᵗʳᵘˢᵗ ᵖᵉᵒᵖˡᵉ ᵗʰᵃᵗ ᵉᵃˢⁱˡʸ"
she said quietly. She turned to me and hugged me, sobbing hard and her chest heaving up and down. I lifted her head up to me. "Did he touch you in any inappropriate way?" I asked her.
She nodded, laying her head on my chest. "I wanna go home. My dream just turned into a nightmare" she said. I walked in the kitchen, grabbing bags and foil.
I packed up the food and she went to the car.

I got in David's car since it was raining hard outside and buckled up. I seen David get in the car after putting the food in the back. "I'm sorry for being beautiful.
I'm sorry for being thick, I'm sorry for having stretch marks, I'm sorry for being myself, I'm sorry for always being cheery. I'm sorry-" David cut me off with a hug.
"Don't apologize for being you or being thick. It's you and your body. Don't let no one change you, even if it's me. Okay, Rose?" He asked me.
I nodded and he kissed my cheek before driving off.
