My Husband Doesn't Allow Me to Eat Christmas Turkey
On Christmas Day, eight months pregnant, I struggled through the kitchen,cooking for my husband and his secretary.
When I finally sat down, hoping to taste a piece of turkey I didn’t even get during Thanksgiving, my husband shoved me aside like I was nothing. He slid the turkey in front of his secretary instead.
“Alison,you’re already so fat. Stop eating. Let Daisy have it—she deserves to enjoy your cooking.”
Daisy,chewing on the turkey I had painstakingly prepared, had the audacity to mock me under the guise of playing truth or dare with my child.
“So, what do you think your mom looks like?”
“Mommy looks like a fat pig on a farm!”
“Her stretch marks? They’re like disgusting worms crawling all over her. Even Santa would run for his life!”
Their laughter erupted like daggers piercing me from all sides. Humiliation and rage burned through me as my dignity was stripped bare.
I demanded an apology from that vile woman, but my husband—my husband!—turned his cold, cruel face toward me and said, “Get out of here.”
Pregnant, exhausted, and humiliated, I stood there in shock. Then I snapped. I grabbed the Christmas cake and turkey and threw them in the trash.
I walked out without looking back.
This wretched family doesn’t deserve a second of my effort or a single ounce of my love!
