You've known Don was abusing Evelyn for a long time, you promised not to say anything just for her. You brought her ice packs and hid the bruises away for her with annoyance in your eyes. It was obvious to Evelyn you wanted to do something to make him suffer back.

This time Evenly had a large bruise on her rib, it yellowish purple and disgusting. You told her you were gonna do something about this and she started to beg you not to.

"I love him! Sure he makes mistakes, many women get abused. Besides, Don doesn't hit me everyday."

Those were lies. She didn't love Don anymore, she did when he wasn't this Don. Now she loved you. But she needed Don, not you.
