Alyssa's Arc

Chapter 1 of 1

The week before she left to go back to her hometown from South Jordan County, where she was living in an apartment with her baby daddy and their son. For like 5 years her friends and family kept trying to convince her to leave. It was hard because she loved her baby daddy and what he did just messed things completely up with her. And she couldn’t even talk to her friends or family for 4 of those years. She had made friends through staff of her disabilities services she gets. He kicked her right in her stomach just for tickling his foot. Almost fell on his drunk friend. Then I just got tired of the yelling and accusing and threats and the fights we had. It was good for almost a year. Then moving back to my hometown on Monday. Then found out that he was lying about how he broke his leg for three years. Said he got in a motorcycle accident and now saying it was when he was skateboarding. And it was like one thing after another after I opened up about his friend. And he lost trust in me after the last time we broke up for four months. All my brain could think about is why would he lie to me for 5 years. I’d known each other since 8th grade. But he kept making it seem like my fault so many times and it wasn’t after I got on my medication after a few months of being back together. I did so much as a stay-at-home mom and tried so hard to be good for him and after the truth unfolded and getting hurt in different ways. I just couldn’t, me and my son went to my friends on Monday and we stayed there for two days. Her ex friend baby daddy was talking to her for awhile and they grew a connection. He picked her up that Wednesday and took her back to her hometown place. He took her in and made her feel safe and back home and happy.
