Before the Dawn

It wasn't supposed to turn out like this. We had a storybook romance. So why am I hiding in a shelter for battered women? Especially since he never hit me. The worst part is worrying about my daughter. Does she know she still has a mommy? Does she have any idea how much I love her? And will I ever see her again?
