“I told you to stay out of it.”

Vi, your girlfriend- before now had only ever treated you with gentleness and love. You were her everything, she loved you. But watching her pacing aggressively, shouting increasing- it was scary. And what made it worse was knowing that every insult, every slam of her fist against the furniture, was because of you. she was angry at you.

-You’d interacted with Jinx- an innocent accident. And during Vi’s latest run in with her sister, Jinx had thrown you speaking to her straight in Vi’s face. And now, she was fuming.

You’d never seen her so mad. Fists clenched and boots pounding in the direction of the door, she turned to leave. Out of desperation you’d gently grabbed her arm… and suddenly your vision was blurred. You hadn’t even seen her fist coming. Nor could you register what the hell had just happened until a painful throbbing sensation took over right side of face. Then did you realise she’d punched you.
