The Life They Deserved

Alley POV

"I think you should go!" Ethan gave me his sad blue eyes pleading with me to help as we crouched in the bath tub.

"No way! I already got fucking slapped by that beast. She is your wife you should take the beating, fucking coward." I whispered back to him.

"What is wrong with you two?" Greg moved the shower curtain standing next to us and we both jumped. He gave me that glare again like who are you?

I was done trying to be this perfect Amelia Black woman. If Greg and his family didn't like who I really was then I had to accept that. I couldn't live with myself acting as his perfect woman when I was a complete lie to myself.

"She is psycho Greg. Look! My cheek is still slightly bruised. I can't even hit her back because she is my best friend going through some major hormonal bullshit. You know what, I'm going to get ice cream!" I stood up announcing proud of my decision. Ice cream made everyone feel better, especially us women. Plus it gave me an excuse to leave that house.
