Noa’s head snapped up like I had electrocuted him.
“That’s it! You’re just agreeing?” His voice held a very prominent note of accusation which left me kind of baffled. What was I supposed to do?
“Didn’t you just say that you wanted to- His humorless chuckle cut me off
“You’re really desperate to climb into that bastard’s bed aren’t you‘ You didn’t even bat an eye before agreeing to break up!” Noah glared at me, his eyes shining with anger. He was hurt and that convinced me to ignore his harsh words. One of us had to act mature.
“Things between us have been way too strained for quite some time now. I feel it’s better not to drag it out till it becomes messy.” I explained: hoping it could pacify him and help him see things cirady. Safe to say I was wrong.
He jumped back up on his feet and yelled. “You were waiting for me to
me to say it!”
“Don’t shout at me! Gu will hear us.” I hissed, growing irritated with his tantrums. His absolute disregard for the boundaries I had ser should have – sent me away long ago. But that’s the thing about me. I always fail to see the red flags early on in a relationship.
“I don’t give a fuck about your precious daughter!” He all but hollered. One second he was standing in front of the couch and the next second he

“Nooh What’s

He maniacally laughed. “What’s wrong with me? Are you asking me after you practically leaped at the prospect of being out of this relationship?”
“Wondered why? Why would I want to give up on this relationship if things were grea between ust”

Noah’s eyes narrowed for the briefest second before he scoffed. “Monry. That’s the answer behind every action of girls like you”
Hot indignation rose in me. I raised a challenging brow, “Girls like me!”
“Yes, gold–diggers. You have set your eyes on that rich bastard.”
I gritted my teeth “Or maybe your fragile ego can’t handle the fact that I agr
He grabbed me by the biceps and hurled me forward.
I agreed to break up. You expected me to cry and beg, didn’t you?”
“How could I expect that? You’ve caught sight of a bigger fish, haven’t you?”
“Leave my hand.” I twisted to get out of his hold but he was holding on too tightly which would surely leave bruises
Tell me how much he pays you to spread your legs for him?” I observed the crazed look in his eyes as he sneered. He looked so different. I hardly recognized this man.
“Noah, you’re hurting mel
“Good. You need to feel some of the pain that I do.” I gave him another second before slamming my knee against his groin. He immediately let go of his hold on me and doubled over in pain. Nothing he didn’t deserve.
“What you think is pain is actually your bruised ego. You’ll get over it. I snapped caressing my arm where he was gripping me. I didn’t know what I expected when he stood up with a malicious look in his eyes but not this, never this
“Fucking bitch!” He snarled, prancing at me. He had my arms locked behind my back while he banged my head against the wall.
Intense agonizing pain seared through my head. My vision went blurry while I struggled to remain conscious through the burning sensation, The blood trickled down my forehead as I remained pressed against the wall.

“Ssh, sweetie! Don’t cry!” I wiped at the tears but a fresh batch trickled down.
“You’re bleeding!” She whispered as if speaking any louder could be dangerous. My heart clenched thinking bow scared my lile girl was right now and all because of me. I sigh to soothe the pain for now. Self–loathing could wait. First I needed to get the both of us out of here and to safety.
I hugged Gia, rubbing her back. I’m fine. Okay? Stop crying, sweetie.
She sniffed, her nose a bright shade of red. I wiped her face with the heel of my palm. “Go grab your panda from your room.” She nodded before taking off And it was my turn

eyes for a quick second, sending a quick prayer almove. My hands were sweating with anxiety. With every step I took towards the bedroom my heart pulsed harder, drowning the berce throbbing in my head.
I could hear the shower running. That was my chance. I crept in trying my best not to make a sound. I grabbed my purse from the nightstand.. Only when I closed the door behind me did 1 release the breath I was holding
Gia climbed down the last stair with the plushie in her hand. I stretched my hand for her to take
