Realistic suspense
He missed.
by Taylor Silvers
The author has placed a warning on this post for violence.
He quickly followed me into the house, slapping and punching. I wasn't just going to sit here and take it this time. I matched his every swing. I made contact with his nose, it started to bleed slowly. I swung around catching him in a choke hold. He gasped and shook for breath, unable to keep my grip I let him drop to the ground. Facing torward him, now brought astonishment, when he stood, eye to eye, raising a 0.9mm to my forhead. I smiled with relief, as I leaned into to the cold muzzle, and threatened, " Don't miss."

Lots of people underestimate their own power, what they can do, once they let go of the fear of "what might happen". I hope this can be used as inspiration for other people in any abusive situation.
