Abused and Used Nessa Dee's Work

Read and you shall find out. Answer is already in the title
Bang! He slapped me across my right cheek. I fell to the ground in an instant. I clutched my two hands together, begging for mercy but he grabbed me by the collar, pulled me up and pushed me against the wall viciously. I could find no mercy in his face. Anger was written all over him. I struggled to breathe as he dug his fist into my neck. I dropped to the ground instantly. He stood above me, glaring at me with his beady eyes, glowing with fire.

‘’Am s-o-o so...rry Kia ‘’ He said softly. I looked at him, through the film of hot tears streaming down my face. He bent down and touched me on my arm.
‘’DON'T YOU EVER, EVER TOUCH ME AGAIN! ‘’ I said viciously. He moved away quickly, stood up and bent his head down in shame. I turned my head to look at the floor. There was blood everywhere. My blood.

With a little bit of strength I got up and limped painfully to the bathroom. I looked in the mirror. The reflection in the mirror was not that of a young, beautiful woman enjoying her life to the fullest and smiling to the world but it was that of a broken woman with a weak soul, suffering in the hands of a man who declared that he loved her but uses his fits to hurt her all the time . I touched my face. I looked at my palms. Blood dripped. How could he do this to me? I thought he loved me? I looked closely in the mirror. I had a running nose oozing with blood, a sore right cheek and a black eye. I looked like a monster.

‘’Enough is enough. I have endured this pain and suffering for too long ‘’ I muttered to myself. I frowned. I lifted my right fist towards the mirror, stiffened and smashed my fist against the mirror and it shattered into smithereens. I felt a bit relived.
‘’I didn’t mean to hurt you Kia. I love you... ‘’ I looked back. It was Tyrone. He stood at the door. I frowned. How dare he say that to me after he beat me up? He came close to me. I took two steps back.

‘’If you truly love me why do you beat me up all the time?‘’ I asked. He looked at me. His eyes watered. I couldn’t even bare to look at his face. I turned around, crossed my arms and stared at the window. Drip, Drop, Drip, Drop. The rain splattered against the window softly. I stepped closer to the window. The sky was gloomy. Darkness filled the atmosphere. Then I felt a hand touch my shoulder hesitantly. I looked to the side then turned around. It was him. He glared deeply into my eyes. I looked back at him. We stood there in silence. He wrapped his hands around my waist; I wrapped my hands around his neck. I sniffled. A tear drop fell out of my right eye.
‘’I will never, ever hurt you again Kia. I promise.‘’ He said quietly. I said nothing.

I laid on my bed, thinking about the other night. How Tyrone kissed me and made love to me. I forgot about all the pain and suffering I endured when he beat me up because he just made me feel too good. I hate him but at the same time I love him. He is so sexy. I bit my lip. I smiled.

I turned my body to the left side of the bed wondering ‘’ Love is a mysterious thing. It can make or break you.’’ I touched the pendant on the necklace on my neck. I looked at it. It was gold-plated and was of a circular shape. It had many beautiful patterns on the front and the back. I opened it. Inside it was of a picture of my mum and me. I miss her so much. My childhood wasn’t very nice. I grew up too fast. I knew more things than an ordinary child my age would know. I was just 10 at the time. My mum was a prostitute. She struggled to take care of me and my brother. She was such a good mum even though she had to do the things that she didn’t want to do. She did it because she loved us and just wanted us to be happy.

She had me when she was 15 and had my brother when she was 19. We lived in a one bedroom flat in one of the poorest rundown estates in London. It was really hard for me. I didn’t have many friends when I was young. No one wanted to be my friend because they knew my mum and what she was doing. When I was 12, I was taken to social services because they told my mum she was too unfit to take care of two children, leaving my brother all by himself. Since then I haven’t seen him. My only wish is that I could see my brother and mother again before I die. My phone vibrated in my pocket. I took it out and answered the call. It was Tyrone. I did not even realize he had left the room while I laid on my bed lost in my own thoughts.

‘’Hey sweetie Pie, You Ok?‘’ He said smoothly. Damn his voice is sexy. I sneered and blushed.
‘’Yes, Am alright.‘’ I replied, giggling.
‘’So what are you doing? ‘’
‘’Nothing really, Am so bored...’’ The door bell rang. Puzzled, I got up and went to the door.

‘’I wonder who that is?‘’ Tyrone asked wittingly over the phone. I opened the door and it was Tyrone.
My face broke into a smile. He smiled back. We hugged.
‘’What are you doing here again baby?‘’ I asked.
‘’You know its Alicia’s brother birthday today right?‘’ He said happily.
My face dropped in astonishment.
‘’Really? Alicia didn’t tell me anything about that. Besides, is it today?‘’
I asked curiously. He nodded his head.
‘’Do you want to come?’’ He asked. I shrugged my shoulder. I couldn’t be bothered to go. I felt so lazy.

‘’I don’t know, I can’t be bothered.‘’ I replied smiling.
‘’Please Kia.‘’ He said softly. Making that baby face expression he knew I could not resist.
‘’Umm, ok then but I’ve got to change because I look a hell of a mess right now. ‘’ I replied giggling.
‘’To me, you still look sexy in them boxer shorts and top.‘’ He said with a grin on his face.
‘’Oh shut up Tyrone’’ I said laughing. I ran upstairs and went to my bedroom to change.
‘’I’ll be waiting in the car so don’t take too long.’’ He shouted. The front door slammed. I opened my closet and looked inside.

‘’Hmm, what should I wear?‘’ I muttered to myself. I took out my black high waist shorts with my white stripy top and put them on. I put on my earrings, necklace and white shoes. As I was just about to go downstairs, I heard a sudden noise. BEEP! BEEP!
I knew for a fact it was Tyrone.
‘’Kia, hurry up. We are already late as it is!‘’ He shouted. I giggled. I rushed downstairs and opened the door. I closed the door behind me then walked to his car. His face dropped instantly. He bit his lip.
‘’Damn! You look so beautiful.‘’ Tyrone exclaimed. My eyes squinted and I blushed.
