When I Stopped Loving Him, He Started to Care

“Whatever you want. I’ll even marry the man you arranged for me before. Just come get me. Please. In one week. I’ll be ready.”

This wasn’t the first time I begged my stepfather for help. The last time was a year ago when I found out my husband Kevin was cheating on me.

With my half-sister. Jasmine.

And the most recent heartbreak was when they forced me to chase after the man who stole Jasmine’s necklace. I was left hurt, with bruises all over, lying on the pavement like I was nothing. Not even worth a second glance. Even my real father turned his back on me.
