~Avery~

I looked at Max with his pleading eyes.

What was he doing in my booth? Was he crazy?

He walked to where I was, and I stood up and punched him right between the eyes.

Now I see why I dreamt of him last night.

Everything he did to me came rushing back to me, and I slapped him.

He did not say anything; he just stared and me with tears rolling down his cheeks.

“What do you want, Max? You are trespassing,” I told him, and he went on his knees.

“Avery, I am sorry,” He said, and I wondered what had gotten into him. Why was he telling me sorry? There was no word to describe what he did to me, so there shouldn’t be a word to take it away.

“What do you want?” I asked him, and he bowed his head.

“I want you to come back to me, Avery,” he said, and I could not believe this guy.

“Are you sick or something? How the fuck do you think I will come back to you after all you did to me because of Michelle?” I said, and he stood up.

“I am sorry, Avery. I later found out that she was lying. She wasn’t pregnant, and you were not beating her. Doctor Alice said Michelle had never been pregnant in her life. All the miscarriages she claimed to have because you beat her were lies. I am sorry,” he said, and I was shocked.

I wasn’t shocked at what he said, but because he was stupid enough to not figure out she was lying about her pregnancy.

“I have scars to show for it, Max. Scars that would never heal on Mia’s body. My body. How do you think that would make me feel?” I asked him, and he bowed his head in shame.

“I do not know what came over me, Ave. I lost it. I lost my mind,” he said in tears, and I could not believe this psycho.

“You did it so much, Max. You did it every night. Every night you fought with Michelle, you came for me; whenever I refused to agree with your actions, you came for me. Whenever I did something you disagreed with, you came for me. I was your punching bag. Your rag. You maltreated me; anything is better than being with you,” I said and looked at him in disbelief. Had he lost his mind?

“How could you even expect that I will leave someone who loves me wholeheartedly and fixed my broken soul? What made you think I would return to you? ” I said, and he looked at me.

I knew he never expected it to come to this. He saw me as a commodity, an object. He even saw his fated like that, too. That was the only reason he requested a swap.

He thought it would be easy. He thought all men were like him and saw women as objects.

It was either that, or he had lost his mind completely.
