But he can’t help but love you, crave your comfort.
His mind is hard at work. What should he do?! He doesn’t want to get beaten, but he also doesn’t want to curl up on the cold floor, sad and alone. Despite your abuse, he craves your validation, your love. And he’s desperate, pathetically desperate for it.
