It was dark and the moon shined brightly against the midnight backdrop of the sky and she was sound asleep in her bed. She had waited until ten p.m for him to return home safely.
"Owww!" yelled Monica, as she was pulled out of bed by her hair. 250Please respect copyright.PENANAKvpVFDqpXH
"Where is my vodka?" slurred Dan. 250Please respect copyright.PENANA4z3Fqtz36K
Monica sighed and rubbed her aching head. She hated Dan when he was like this. Ever since he lost his job three months ago he had taken to drinking like fish to water.
"I poured it out, now go sleep on the couch" replied Monica, and she climbed back into bed. She only had her eyes closed for five seconds before she felt intense pain spread across her stomach. "Ugh!" groaned Monica in pain as her eyes quickly opened. She looked up to see Dan leaning over her with his left hand clenched in a fist. 250Please respect copyright.PENANAPwd9wDcrzk
"Yo-You punched me" she stuttered as she looked up at him in shocked. 250Please respect copyright.PENANAgJyoz4xkhC
During the three years they were dating Dan had never laid his hands on her in a violent way not even when he was drunk in the past. It looks like that had change. 250Please respect copyright.PENANAk7VN1GQhGs
"Go get my vodka!" yelled Dan.
"Dan it's three in the morning and no store is opened at this hour" said Monica slowly and calmly so as not to anger him. However, it didn't work. Dan's eye filled with range and he grabbed her by her neck.
"Go get my vodka!" yelled Dan as he applied pressure to her neck.
"Dan...You're...choking...me..." said Monica, as she desperately tried to pull his hands from around her neck.
"AHHH!" screamed Monica as she lurched forward from her bed. She is breathing heavily and her body is covered in light sweat. After looking around her room for a few moments she took a deep breath and sighed. "Not again" mumbled Monica. Two weeks. It has been two weeks since the court had called and told her Dan would be released in five months for good behavior. Ever since then she has been having nightmares of the day she almost lost her life to him. With a shaky hand she picked up her cellphone and called her psychologist Dr. Barnes. After three rings she picked up.
"Hello, Dr. Barnes is speaking" she answered.
"Dr. Barnes it's Miss Rosewood" said Monica in a shaky voice.
"Miss Rosewood what's the matter?" asked Dr. Barnes with concern.
"Dr. Barnes I need to see you immediately" replied Monica.
"Can you come in at eight in the morning?" asked Dr. Barnes.
"Yes" replied Monica.
"Then I'll put you down in my book and I'll see you tomorrow" said Dr. Barnes.
"I'm sorry that i have to interrupt you on your weekend" said Monica.
"You're not bothering me at all Miss Rosewood. My job as a psychologist is to help patients even if it's the weekend" said Dr. Barnes.
"Good night then Dr. Barnes" said Monica.
"It's actually one in the morning Miss Rosewood" said Dr. Barnes. Monica looked at her digital clock and it said it is three minutes passed one.
"Oh! You're right" said Monica.
"I'll see you in seven hours" said Dr. Barnes and she hanged up.
Monica took a deep breath and started to get ready for the day.
