PROLOGUE: "THE CHANGE IN ME"
"Mariah you got to leave him!"  my best friend Charli said, as she held up the frozen broccoli against my now swollen cheek. "He said he would change."  I say as my hot tears streamed down my face.  "He's never going to change! Look at your face Mariah! How many times did he say he was going too?!" Charli exclaimed, pointing to the mirror. She hated seeing me like this. Always have.  I take up for him. Why? Because he's my first love, my first everything. We have been together for three years. I was drained. I wanted him to love me. But his fist loves me more than himself. What am I suppose to do? I'm nothing without him.  "Too many times." I muttered to Charli. "You have to run." She said. I turned around facing her. "What?" I asked hoarsely. "You have to run away Mariah. That's the only way." Charli advised me.  "Where? Where could I go? I have no money, no family-"  I cut myself off. Hearing keys rattling on the door. "Who the f**k you got in my house Mariah?"  Jamie opened the door, drunk stumbling.  "It's Charli. She came by to see me."  I say, with a shaken voice, as I walked out of the bathroom, noticing him standing by the door. "I'll go.. Call me." Charli said as she walked away from behind me. She gave me a look before she walked out of the door.  "You bet not of been running yo' mouth. You know what happens after that." Jamie slurred. "I wasn't doing anything-" I cut myself off, gasping because he grabbed my neck.  "Don't lie." He said, gripping my neck with his one hand. I looked in his eyes. They were black and his breath reeked of alcohol. "I swear Jamie! I wasn't doing anything!" He let go of my neck and laughed after. I rubbed my neck as he stumbled to the couch. He passed out on the couch, not letting go of the liquor bottle in his hand. I stood right there watching him. Was it my chance to leave? Or should I wait?  My heart thumped out of my chest, pounding fast. I guess I overthought about it. Because J's phone vibrated, knocking me out of it.  I was about to walk to him until he shifted in his sleep. His jacket pocket hung over the couch as he laid close enough to the edge. It was an easy shot to take it out.  I walked slowly to the couch. I reached over slowly... carefully. And stuck my hand in his pocket. He moved once again. I snatched his phone out of his pocket and ran to the bathroom.  I saw a missed phone call from, Star. He had emojis by her name! But it doesn't have emojis for mine. I typed in my birthday for his passcode. It didn't work! I was livid. I can feel my blood boiling. Body heating up. It was hot.  This bastard changed his password. I thought of many ways of trying to c***k his code. The only way was to steal his thumbprint. I'll be taking a big risk if I do that. I walked back into the living room. I heard loud snores from him. He only snores loud unless he was in a deep sleep.  I walked to the couch and leaned down grabbing his hand softly. I held his thumb on his home button until it unlocked. I let go of his hand carefully. I ran back into the bathroom. I locked the door behind me.  I clicked on the "Star" contact. I scrolled through his phone, reading every text message they had. She sent him nudes, and I read her message when she was talking about me. "When you gonna' leave that wannabe pink-haired barbie b***h?"  He told her soon. He was going to leave my "broke-ass" soon. She also replied I have nothing on her when I clearly look better. You know how many times I tried to leave and this nigga begged me back? I blicked my eyes. I dropped his phone in the toilet and flushed it.  I shook my head. Got me looking stupid. I rushed out of the bathroom to pack my bags. I went to J and I room. I went straight to my wallet. I notice how it was nothing but $50 and some lint. I put the $50 in my bra and sat my wallet down. I grabbed my bag and started loading all my clothes inside. I was leaving my jewelry behind. I didn't care about anything else. I just had to get the f**k out of there before I either put my hands on him or kill him for all the pain and s**t he has ever done to me.  I heard footsteps. I brushed them off. I continued packing my clothes. I noticed my bag was full to the point where I couldn't zip it. I didn't care I just held my bag tight. I grabbed it and turned around seeing Jamie standing at the doorway.  "Mariah you seen my- Where the- Where the f**k you think you going?"  Jamie stuttered. I just stared in his face. No fear. I was no longer afraid of him anymore.  "ANSWER ME!" Jamie roared. "None of your f*****g business Jamie! Go the f**k to Star! Since I'm broke now! And since I don't have s**t on her! Well f**k you Jamie!"  I screamed at him.  "Who the f**k asked you to go through my s**t?! And you not leaving!" He charged at me, trying to take my bags out of my hands. I snatched my bags away from him. "You not going no f*****g where!" Jamie yelled, grabbing my neck, slamming me against the wall. "LET ME GO!" I screamed as I was fighting him with one hand, I wasn't letting my bag go at all. I was leaving tonight.  I almost gave up because his grip on my neck was tightening. But I ended up kicking him on the unexpected. He groaned in pain, letting his grip go. I c****d my fist back and punched him in his eye. He fell sideways, still holding his crotch. I tried to run out of the room until he grabbed my ankles, making me fall, and I let go of my bag. He held on to my ankle until he got on top of me, and started punching on my body. I was fighting him back but it was no use he was stronger than me. I saw a bottle under the bed, I grabbed it and hit him with it.  I grabbed my bag, that fell out of my hands, and ran out of our apartment. HIS apartment. I was on my own with nothing but $50. I'm in this situation alone. And if I want to escape the abuse I have to leave town for good.
