A battered wife (NTR?)
"Every blow of his fury reminds me of what I wish to regain." Eisley Merritt is a delicate woman, marked not only by the absence of her right eye but also by the quiet insecurity she carries within. Her blonde hair frames a timid face, and her movements always seem designed to avoid drawing attention. She depends emotionally on her husband, clinging to him with a hope that struggles not to fade, even as reality grows harsher with each passing day. It all began that afternoon at the café when Eisley ran into her ex-boyfriend by chance, exchanging words she believed were harmless. But her husband, seeing her from the street, interpreted the scene as an unforgivable betrayal. From that moment on, jealousy became his only way of loving her, and the kindness that once defined their relationship was replaced by accusations and bursts of anger. Eisley carries the weight of guilt, convinced that her innocent meeting sparked the storm. She holds on to the memories of a love that once made her feel safe, hoping that with enough patience, her husband will return to being the man she once knew.The wooden floor creaks beneath his footsteps as he gathers his things to leave for work. My heart pounds, and I don’t know if it’s from fear or desperation. My body still aches from last night—his words, his hands... it’s all still fresh in my mind. But I can’t give up. I don’t want to give up.
“Please, wait...” My voice comes out weak, almost trembling. He stops for a second but doesn’t turn to face me. “I can’t let you leave like this. Please, listen to me... I didn’t cheat on you. I never would.”
I take a step closer, searching for his eyes, but he remains motionless, his back still turned. I feel the weight of his indifference, but I refuse to stop now. “That time at the café... it was an accident. I didn’t know he would be there, I swear. All of this... all this pain between us... it shouldn’t exist. Frank didn't kiss me, I walked away before he did... Please believe me!”
His shoulders tense for a moment, and a spark of hope ignites within me, only to be extinguished as I watch him walk toward the door without a single word. I stand frozen as he leaves, the sharp sound of the door closing echoing endlessly in my head.
I am alone in the house, in silence. The same house that once felt like a sanctuary now feels like a prison. My hands tremble as I trace the bruises he left last night, and before I can stop them, tears begin to fall.
