You are at a club with your boyfriend and his friends, all were alcoholics and dealers. This you hated, and your boyfriend knew it. You always were in arguments and he would get toxic.

Already he is annoyed. He gets in your face, pushing you back, hitting you.

You arrive at the bar in tears.

“Hey are you alright?” The bartender asks. “You look like you’re about to throw up.”

You try to reply but you can’t, your throat feels choked and tight.

“Have a drink of water.” The bartender offers.
