Bail Money

When I got to my house Victor helped me inside. That short car ride still made me feel even more stiff. My muscles were screaming as I stepped down of the side of the truck. Victor was there to help support me. He reached across and grabbed my purse and my phone. Thankfully he remembered those things because they were not on my mind. When we got inside I let him know I was going to go shower. I stepped in the bathroom and really looked at myself now. I started crying, I was so dirty and bruised already. My eyes were so swollen I was surprised I could still open them . I know tomorrow it will be hard for me to. Everything was replaying in my head as I stood there starring and crying my eyes out. Victor knocked softly on the door after a few minutes and I reached over to open it up. I did not feel like talking. He stepped in and reached around my waist and pulled me tight to him from behind. We stood there, I sunk back into his embrace. After a few minutes He turned me around to him. “Let me help you” He told me.
I stepped back some to give him room. He turned the shower on then slowly helped me undress. He was extra careful pulling my shirt off over my head. Then he slowly unbuttoned my jeans and helped slide them down one leg at a time. He was so quiet and sweet. I braced myself on his broad shoulders as I stepped out of my jeans. Then he undressed. He got into the shower before me and reached a hand out to help me step in. He took his time doing slow circles with the wash cloth everywhere. Then when he was done washing my body he turned and started shampooing my hair nice and easy. He kept asking if he was hurting me. But he wasn’t it felt well. After I was cleaned he washed himself quickly and turned the shower off. I was just standing there and watching his every move. When he dried off and wrapped the towel around himself he turned to me and started to dry me off as well. I told him I had it but he stopped me and said he wanted to.
After a few minutes in the bathroom drying we went into the bedroom. I started to cry agan, not just because of the pain but because of this gentle sweet man in front of me. Caring for me without taking sex from me. He came over quickly and pulled me close apologizing again. I told him no, not to apologize I am so thankful for him and happy that he came to me. He said sorry because he felt like he pushed me to going back over there and by myself. After we got our pjs on we climbed into bed. I feel asleep almost instantly.
The next morning I woke up with a start, my phone was ringing off the hook. Victor reached over and answered it. He looked angry. He said “Shes busy” He put his hand over the phone and looked at me. “It’s your mom, form jail. She needs bail.” I rolled my eyes and took the phone.
“Please don’t hang up I am so over him, I am done. I hate that happened to you. I need bail please come get me out so I can get rid of his stuff.” She said quickly.
“Are you done? You are leaving him?” I asked
“Yes , yes, I cant keep him in my life.’’ She responded.
“Ok, I will be there soon.” I tell her.
I look at Victor when I hung up the phone and he sadly looked away. “I understand.” He said.
We got up and got dressed. It took me a few minutes extra because I was in so much pain everywhere. I felt like I was hit with a mac truck! When we got over to the county jail house I went in. It was $300 to bail her out. I had it but I did NOT have it if you know what I mean. I paid and she came out. She was crying and gave me a hug and thanked me so much for getting her out. I told her no problem and that it was $300.. She just said thank you again and left it alone. We did not talk on the ride to her house. Once we got there I walked in with her and tried to talk to her again about everything. She flipped and told me I needed to mind my business and she needs to go get him. His sister was bailing him but she had to go pikc him up. I told her no, you promised you were done. But she just told me that I could go I did what I needed to do and that was it.
I slammed the door as I walked out and got in my car to drive home. I should not of expected any more. I knew she would not be done. The guy paid for everything for her. She would not just leave him and be broke. She would never change I should have known. She is such a user! I called Victor who was already pulling out to complain and tell him everything. He just listened. I let him know that I was completely done with them all. And I was pressing charges and he agreed.
The next week went by rather slowly. I had to call out of work because I did not want anyone to see all my bruising and scratches going on everywhere. Near the end of the week my sister called me (The first contact since it all happened) She asked if I knew that the court date for everything was today. I told her no I had not heard anything. She said that mom left a few minutes ago with Paul to go handle it all. I was furious so I hurried and headed to the court house As I got there my mom and Paul were walking out of the judges chambers.
