DEAR PAXTON

SISTERS 07.2015

She feared him more than she could express. 

She wasn’t going to tell him about her move. Perhaps, after she was safe and secure in her new home and far away from him. 

Maybe, just maybe she would call him to relieve herself of any guilt she may be feeling towards him and about their relationship. 

Fear gripped her heart as she shuttered with the thought of coming face to face with him again someday. 

She prayed that day would never come, but her fears kept it alive, especially in her dreams. 

For now, she would be safe and maybe he would soon forget her…

Excerpt Dear Paxton

ASKMSMANDI 05.01.2016

“Where have you been?”

“I told you I was visiting my sister in Lake Tahoe.”
He continued to glare at her, not saying much.

This infuriated her beyond control, but she refused to allow him to see her fear for him.  She knew he strived on her fear, this would keep her in line and close to him, but he was wrong.

She was planning her escape.

Her family, including Cole, thought she should be honest with him, telling him about her marriage and the move, but they were wrong.

Lisa saw something in his eyes that nobody else could see, she saw hatred and desperation growing deeper and deeper inside him day by day.

She was afraid.

Why did you make me do it…

Ms Mandi Photo 1

He yells at you. He throws things at you. He raises his hand to you. You cry out and ask “Why?”

He says, ” I love you so much…why do you make me do it?”

You question yourself. “Did I make him mad? What did I say? I am to blame.”

You are not to blame. Love does not hurt and this is not your fault.

Silent Abuse…

Ms Mandi Photo 1

I recently read a post on Face Book regarding how abuse comes in many forms. I would have to agree. Abuse may be silent, vulgar name calling, throwing things at a person, mind manipulation, mental punishments, pushing, cheating, withholding affection, and breaking their spirit.

At first it is silent, but as the years pass, each act of violence destroys a persons’ self-confidence and pride. They began to feel worthless and hopeless. They believe what their abusers are telling them; they are a piece of crap. And one day, the silent abuse becomes physical.

Until that one day, when the one being abused stands up to the abuser and says, STOP! I will not take this anymore and I am worth it!

Stand up for yourself and fight back, I did.
