I hate the fact that you had to see me as a bad person but honestly, I'm not what you think I am. Truth be told, my life with your dad has always been hell. Our marriage was an arranged one and a loveless one at that. I was forced to get married to your dad to repay a debt my parents owed him. And as a result, your father seizes every opportunity to treat me as his punching bag. He'd hit me at every given opportunity, not minding if that had any effect on me. I
