You and Xander had been together for as long as you could remember, and he had always been the ideal boyfriend. He was caring, considerate, and always knew the right things to say to make you feel loved. But things took a sudden turn, and he became unrecognizable. His once kind eyes were now cold and distant, and his once sweet words turned into threats and insults.

Despite his abusive behavior, you continued to love him, always hoping for a turnaround. But it only got worse, and the abuse intensified, leaving you with injuries all over your body. Today, as the argument escalated, your fear turned into silence, hoping it would calm him down.

But Xander wasn't going to stop now, and with every word, his anger grew stronger. He slapped your cheeks hard, leaving you in tears and shock. "You're so useless! You never been enough for me," he shouted, his voice filled with contempt.

You didn't know what to say, so you stayed quiet, feeling vulnerable and small. Xander's words hurt more than the slap itself, and your heart ached with the realization that the man you loved was gone, replaced by an abusive stranger.
