Divine intervention or some psychedelic shit

Every step caused my back to scream in agony. Blood stuck my blouse to my flesh and flowed down the waistband of my skirt. I even smelled the metallic flavor oozing from the cut on my cheek.

RJ marched me forward in silence. I mourned the loss of Chris by my side. Knew I would never see him again if I was kept gagged. RJ hadn’t just cut into my back, he had cut off the only ray of light, my only source of sanity I had left by taking Chris from me yet again.

We walked until the walls became lined with curtains hanging over the entrance of little alcoves in the walls. We stopped at two doors, both beat to hell— dents, scrapes, and gouges in the peeling paint surface.

“I’m going to untie you and remove your gag. One word or attempt to get free and I start cutting on parts of the body that you can’t hide so easily.” He removed my leash and yanked the tape from my mouth. “Clean up and piss.”

Rushing through the door, I welcomed a few moments to lose my shit in peace, without any witnesses to see me crumble into a heap on the floor. The door banged shut behind me, and I tucked myself behind the sink hanging on the wall. A tiny crevice that allowed me to shield myself, careful not to rub my fresh wounds on anything.

The cold earth of the tunnel rubbed against the new cuts on my back, and I dug my nails into my thigh, hoping to hold back the scream that clawed at my vocal cords. My breath came out in ragged little bursts. Heart pounded against my ribs. Back screamed in agony. Salty tears made the cut on my cheek sting.

“FUCK.” I kept my voice low to keep RJ from barging through the door and witnessing how scared he truly made me.

I wanted Chris, needed him by my side. I sang, the words coming out shaky and unsure, not normal and strong.

The ever-present light that announced his arrival lit up the room, he rushed to my side, knelt down next to me, put his arms around me, careful to avoid the new horror on my back, and that’s when I lost it. Completely lost it.

I didn’t say a word, just sobbed, ugly sobs into his shoulder. Once my hiccups and hysterics slowed to a quiet bubble of snot from my nose, Chris pushed me back so I could look into his eyes. “Gia, I am sorry.”

“You didn’t do anything, it was all RJ.”

“But I promised the last time this happened, I would never let him touch you again. I’ve failed.” Both of us remembering the tragedy of that day, the glue that had stuck Chris and I together. He swiped at my tears.

“Is it true. Are you half-brothers?”

Chris dropped his chin, looked at the ground, but then nodded his head.

I suppose I should have been furious over my husband’s lies
