Forget Regret
Chapter One
Mimi sat in the corner of her bathroom staring at her crimson blood glistening in the light. She watched as it seeped from her veins, onto her arm, and dripped onto the wet tiles. She listened to the high pitched noise of the shower and the pitter-patter of the water as it hit the bloodstained floor.
She sat sobbing, wet, and shivering with only a small towel wrapped around her. She stared at the piece of artwork she had created on her arm. She hated herself. She hated herself for letting all this happen to her, she hated herself for doing things she swore she would never do, she hated feeling like she had no control over anything. But most of all she hated the person she had become.
It all started one night when she was walking home from the Cat Scratch. She had been in a very good mood as she had done very well that night and had made a lot of tips. She happily walked down the alley in the late summer heat when she was stopped by someone who had been at the club that night. She flashed him a quick smile and tried to keep walking but he stepped in front of her.
"You did a great job tonight," he said staring her down.
"Glad you think so. Thanks for the tips," Mimi replied quietly. She recognized this man to be the one that had thrown a few twenties at her.
"You deserved it. But you know I think I deserve something as well. What do you say I slip you a hundred for a little something in exchange?"
"Uh, no thanks," Mimi said. She tried to get by him but he grabbed her hand. He pulled her close to him and started to caress her cheek.
"Come on," he said.
"Let go of me!" Mimi said. Her voice was shaky and a tear ran down her cheek but she pushed him away and he let go. She started to run away, but he was faster. He grabbed her and held a knife to her throat.
"It won't be bad. I promise you'll like it." While he said this he pressed the knife into her throat. It broke the skin and a trickle of blood slid down her neck. She tried to yell for help but the only sound she could muster was a small pitiful squeal. He took the knife away and whipped her around. She sobbed while he ripped off her clothes and ran his hands up and down her body.
He through her on the ground causing her to hit her head on the concrete and bleed. She layed there helpless as he violated her. She layed there sobbing un able to control anything that was happening and her whole life changed that night that she was brutally raped.
