What I was feeling--when Tom punched me in the face
How dared him!
He said he loves me more than he loves Daisy, but when I shouted her name, he became furious and hit me in my face. My face was twisted by his bones. I felt this heat running through my nose--it was my blood, and it dropped on the floor and left horrific marks on the carpet. The sudden pain hit me like a lightning, but my heart was aching even more. The pain in my nose could not even compare to the pain in my heart, he had never hit me before! I thought he loved me, but it is clear now that he doesn't care about me at all!

It is never easy to get him to talk about Daisy before, and if I am not drunk that day, I would never have the courage to speak those words out, the words that I have been wanting to shout to his face. My face was flushed with anger and disappointment. The truth is that he doesn’t need me at all, he takes me out only when he wanted to satisfy his desire. And the scarier thing is, I cannot live without him, and that’s exactly why he dared to pitch me in the face. I couldn't believe that I am laying down my dignity for this man!
Myrtle, I'm terribly sorry that Tom hit you, I would have stopped him if I could, but he is very unpredictable when he's mad, as I'm sure you've seen. I still can't believe he did that and I hope he doesn't treat Daisy like this, that would really break my heart. You didn't deserve to get hit in the face, but what were you thinking shouting Daisy's name, why were you shouting her name? I do think it was wrong of Tom to have an affair behind Daisy's back, but Tom should have treated you better than he did. XOXO Nick
ReplyDeleteMyrtle, Myrtle, I am sorry for what happened between us in the hotel room the other night, but you had to have seen it coming. We were both drunk, both tired, i was in no mood for an argument and wasn't thinking clearly. Daisy may be my wife but it doesn't mean i don't love you, its just that whenever i am reminded of my marriage i feel like less of a man for cheating. The reason i come to you when i need relief is because i love you more than i love Daisy, and you give me comfort that she just cant give. If you'll forgive me i would be quite happy, that punch has been looming over me for a time now, and i just haven't been able to clear my conscience.
