The day it happened he organised another party.  I was not optimistic about it.

I was hiding in our bedroom as his guests were arriving.  But he found me.

He offered me something to smoke and I considered taking it but then I thought of my baby and responded with a “No.”

“No?” he asked as a flash of anger crossed across his face. I gulped and I was afraid and I knew he knew that I was scared.  He smiled.  An evil smile.

He offered again but our child was not going to be harmed so again I refused.

Then I received the worst beating I had ever got from him.

Yours sincerely,

Monica Blake.
