Dom was in custody for 3 days.. that’s 3 days for me to get head around what happened, But I was finding it hard.. my girl was sleeping peacefully and lost in my own thoughts I didn’t hear the door go..
I was brought back to reality..
“What the f**k is going on?”
“Your son! That’s what’s going on.. thinking he’s an hard man”
“You wouldn’t be saying that if he was here”
“ you wanna bet.. “ I said as I walked away into the kitchen. She didn’t reply so I changed the subject..
“You want a coffee?”
“Might as well”
Silence filled the room and I knew she was itching to say something else so I waited but she never did. Then all of a sudden
“You won’t change him”
I looked raising an eye brow
“Why dose he do the things he does.. I don’t understand what he gets out of it apart from looking like a twat.. I mean come on right fair what did he gain from hitting me??”
“Well.. nothing”
“Exactly.. f**king nothing”
Just before she could reply my girl started to cry..
“Can I?”
“Pardon?”
“Can I hold her?”
“Don’t push boat out will ya.. normally you just take her” I said but then I gave a reassuring nod and she smiled I instantly thought f**k me the old dragon smiles and chuckled to myself.
She might of been an old dragon but I could tell how much she loved my girl.
“ so come on then.. how come your really here?”
“Well I’d come to see if He is back”
“Well as you can see he isn’t”
“I no he’s my son and I love him dearly but..”
“But?”
“Just please be careful. I don’t want you getting seriously hurt. He’s unpredictable”
“I gathered that” i said.. I told her I will be fine and she nodded..
“Rain, Rain”
“In here with your mam”
“How’s my girl?”
“She’s okay.. so erm.. where ya been?”
“Out”
“Yh.. where?”
“None of ya business”
“Aww you no what ya pathetic.. you can’t even answer a simple question”
His mam was looking at me sort of shaking her head as if to say leave it.. but I couldn’t make her out one minute she’s an horrible dragon and the next she is trying to help.. I just didn’t understand.. so I just left him too it..
A few hours went by and his mam was finally leaving..
“Remember what I said Rain”
And off she went.
I was getting my girl settled while the d**khead was in the shower..
I put her down as she was sleeping and off I went to have a tidy round downstairs.
I didn’t hear him come down but I could feel his warm breath on my neck from behind me.. then suddenly he grabbed my hair pulling my head back
“What you think your doing? Get off me your hurting me” I said as tiers fulled my eyes
“Who’s pathetic now you s**g?”
“Please let go.. your hurting me”
He tightened his grip on my hair
“Shut the f**k up! You dirty little slag”
“Stop calling me that.. I’m not a slag I’m your baby mama! You can’t treat me like this”
“I will treat you how I want you slag”
I was full on crying.. I couldn’t believe how horrible he was being knowing our daughter was upstairs sleeping
“Shut the f**k up or il give you something to cry for”
I tried to stop the tiers but I just couldn’t
“I said shut the f**k up”
He pulled me hard backwards and I fell onto the floor and before he walked away he booted me in the side.
“You can sleep down here tonight.. I don’t want you near my baby.. you discuss me”
I went to the kitchen and splashed water on my face and took a couple of paracetamol as I lay on the couch I heard him shout
“Get the f**k up here now or you will get another”
I didn’t complain or answer back as I didn’t have the energy.. we stayed in silence for about an hour when he turned to me
“I do love you and I’m so so sorry.. I didn’t mean it.. I didn’t mean to hurt you”
He had tiers in his eyes
“How am I meant to believe you, you said it wouldn’t happen again before”
“I swear it won’t.. baby I love you I will get help”
I knew I should run for the hills but seeing him in a state hurt my heart.. Why did I still love him so much when he hadn’t treated me right
“If you promise you will get help I will support you but I’m telling you now one more outburst or you even raise a finger to me.. your out”
“Aww baby thank you.. thank you” I just smiled and tried to get some sleep.
A few week had passed and Dom had kept his word.. well he kept his hands to himself but never tried getting any help..
“When do you have court babe?”
“Tomorrow morning at 10.. are you coming?”
“If you want me too”
“Well Yh if I’m going to get sent down.. I’d at least like to say bye to my daughter”
“Do you really think your gonna be sent down?”
“Tbh Yh I do”
Later that night we was sat watching a film having some munch.. I couldn’t of asked for a better night.. no shouting no insults nothing.. just me and him at that moment it was perfect.
