The girlfriend of a hooligan.
1. Introduction.
'Two years. That's how long ago I met Adam, my boyfriend. Well…. Almost ex-boyfriend. I just need to find the courage to leave him.
Why, you ask? Well, Adam isn't the kind of boyfriend girls like to brag about.
He isn't sweet, caring and gentle like other boyfriends are to their girlfriends.
Well… Adam likes to get physical and I don't mean like kissing or holding hands and stuff like that.
No, he likes to beat the crap out of everyone and everything, namely me.
For the last two years I have had 2 broken arms, one broken leg and black eyes of course. Like the one I have right now. Why I am still with him??
Well for one reason: fear.
Fear and the lack of courage are enough to hold me back from leaving him.
But it wasn't always like this. In the beginning of our relationship Adam was really nice and sweet. He took me out on dates or told me how beautiful I was but now I am just happy if he leaves me alone.
Anyway enough of Adam and lets talk about my old happy days when I still had friends and family. But to keep everything short, I lost both my parents, not at the same time of course.
My dad was the first one to go. He died in a car crash when I was four . I don't remember much but what my mom told me a drunken driver had crashed into his car when he was driving home from work. It killed both my dad and the drunken driver.
I still miss him even if I don't remember much about him.
But I still remember that he had those big funny glasses and that he always made me laugh by pulling a funny face. Mmm, yeah. He was a good man but lets talk about my mom.
We were always close because it was always just the two of us. I was always by myself because I didn't had any siblings but I didn't mind. I had my mom.
But the worst day of my life was when I discovered that mom had cancer. I cried and cried but mom hugged me and told me everything was going to be alright, with a smile on her face.
That was the last time I talked to her because the next day I went to the hospital…. she was gone forever.
A couple of months later I met Adam and you know how that went.
Anyway I kept talking and talking but I haven't introduced myself haven't I?
Well, I am Emma , 20 years old and this is my story how I became a girlfriend of a hooligan.'
