Do Not Disturb

by Freida McFadden

When I was younger, before I met Derek, I would hear stories about women stuck in abusive relationships. I never understood why any of them stayed. I thought they were foolish or weak. It never made sense to me until it became my life.

Are you sure that’s all you’re here for? Or are you meeting some guy?

Girl pls that man was a cheater he's projecting

“DO NOT DISTURB”

I press my lips against his.

girl r u fucking crazy?!?

I’m not dead. Did you think I was? That I’m some corpse my husband propped up in front of the second-floor window to frighten his guests? I’m not. I’m very much alive. And I’m afraid my husband is a murderer.
