Ava p.o.vI am shell shock.What the hell did I do.Surprise at myself? YesDo I Regret doing it?

But that gave him no right to decide for me, I was trying to be the reasonable one and not calling out on his controlling persona. But I guess this was the last srew.His face is slightly cock to the side from the impact of the slap, I can see a frown on his face, but did that made me flinch?

Well that might be a lie, I mea
