Frank Foster a man with everything, Charm, Good-Looks, Wit and Wealth, but one thing was missing a beautiful girlfriend. Frank had his fair share of girlfriends over the past few years but none of them compared to Carla Connor. Carla beautiful Carla she was Franks everything, her ravishing raven hair, gorgeous style, fiery personality but most of all her sharp tongue. Frank and Carla had previously dated for only 6 months but Frank was still madly in love with Carla even though she had left him for Peter Barlow. Carla and Peter have now been dating for 4 months and were extremely happy with each other much to Frank's envy, he still worked with Carla and owned 40% of the factory.
"I'm gonna go join the girls in the rovers, you coming Car?" Michelle asked Carla as she grabbed her designer handbag and threw it over her shoulder. "Erm... I'm gonna go home first and leave this paperwork there, I'll call you in about an hour 'Chelle" Carla replied as she unlocked the door of her car and got in, "Bye 'Chelle talk to you later" Carla said with a smile. "Yeah bye Car" Michelle replied smiling back at her best friend as she closed the door of her car and drove away. Driving down the street Carla passed the bookies and beeped the horn of her car three times and waved to Peter, As he waved back Carla's beautiful smile appeared across her face. She continued driving and as she made her way home she couldn't stop smiling, her life at this moment in time was practically perfect, she had the most amazing boyfriend, her own factory and wonderful friends, Carla was on the top of the world.
As Carla entered her flat she sat the large amount of paperwork on her kitchen table and went into the kitchen to put the kettle on, she sat down on her fabric sofa and started on some of her paperwork when she looked at her phone she realised she had missed a call from Peter but he had left her a voicemail so she put her stylish iphone to her ear and listened, "Hey Baby, I won't be home straight after work I'm gonna go to the rovers and sit with the lads a while but don't worry I'm just havin' an orange juice, and Si's in dads so he's taken care of, why don't you come join us if you like? Well bye baby see you later I love you" I love you too Carla mouthed with a smile as she heard Peters voicemail. She was about to lock her phone when she seen an unread message on it she thought it was Peter again but she was surprised to see that it was a message from Frank, Probably just something work related she thought as she clicked the open button to the message.
I was at the factory but you weren't there, are you at home? I really wanna talk with you Carla, if you're at home I'll be there soon, Frank x.
Why does he wanna talk with me? Why is he coming round? Why did he give me a kiss at the end of the text? A puzzled Carla wondered as her and Frank hadn't exactly seen eye to eye since the break up, before she had a chance to text back there was a knock at the door. Carla looked through the spy hole to see that it was Frank, "What the 'eck are you doing here? I see enough of you at that factory!" she said while laughing sarcastically. Her smile dropping as she seen Franks face "Well what's the matter with you eh?" she said as she shut the door. "Carla I know we've talked about this before but I love you, you don't understand I can't live without you Car!" Frank said.
"Frank please we've gone over this before, I'm sorry I just don't love you, I love Peter! You know I love Peter, I loved him the whole time I was with you, Frank you know I never really loved you I'm sorry!" Carla said with a sympathetic look on her face as she puffed up her Raven locks. Frank stared at Carla, her hair was perfect, her makeup was perfect, and her style was perfect, she was perfect. They stood facing each other Frank was distraught, his eyes started to water as he said "Carla I love you, don't do this to me!" Carla felt bad, this man in front of her had been so kind to her and she was breaking his heart but she couldn't be with him when she didn't love him so she figured she had to be cruel to be kind, "Frank for god's sake I've told you a million times I don't love you get it into your head I don't love you I LOVE PETER!" Frank's facial expression changed from misery to rage, "Perfect Peter the alcoholic, yeah he's so perfect isn't he Carla, Nearly killing his son in a fire that he caused by falling asleep drunk" He spat.
"Don't you dare Frank that's in the past don't talk about my Peter like that how dare you, get out!" Carla roared. "Your Peter, YOUR PETER! He should have died in that tram crash" Frank laughed wickedly. "HOW FUCKING DARE YOU GET OUT OF MY FLAT NOW" Carla hissed as she walked to the door and tried to open it, but she didn't get a chance as Frank grabbed her two wrist's and pinned her against the door. Carla had never seen Frank this angry, his eyes were blank, and he had absolutely no emotion behind them she was terrified, "Get off me, get off me your hurting me" Carla winced. Frank didn't reply as he threw her on the floor and held her down she wriggled beneath him trying to push him off her. She froze as she saw him unbuckling his belt, she tried to crawl away but he held her. She screamed and cried as he ripped open her top and pulled down her silky black leggings, she was panicking she was struggling to breathe as he took away her dignity with every thrust.
"You made me do this, it's your fault" "Carla" Frank said as he stood up, the sound of his voice made Carla wretch, she didn't answer him she just lay there. Frank - not getting a reply from the woman he had just raped he ran out the door slamming it behind him. The bang made Carla jump, she was shaking, she sat up against the wall, brought her knees up to her chest and cried, she sat and cried for about an hour before her phone started ringing loudly. Carla jumped as she lifted her head and wiped away the tears cascading down her cheeks, her mascara was smudged all around her eyes. She slowly crawled over to the sofa to get her phone she lifted it and saw it was Michelle but she let it ring. She sat against the sofa and looked across the room where she had previously been. There was a pool of blood on the floor and her legs and wrists were black and purple with, her clothes were in tatters, she felt dirty, she could feel him touching her, she could hear his words over and over "you love it Carla, you want it" "It's your fault, you made me do this" Her stomach started to churn.
Thoughts were running through her mind, should she ring the police? She knew she should but she thought no-one would believe her, so she got up slowly and went into the bathroom, locked the door and turned on the shower, she removed what was left of her clothes and stepped in. She scrubbed and scrubbed her skin as much as she possibly could, she wanted him off her. When she got out of the shower she dried herself and put on her robe, and walked back into the living room and curled up on the sofa. She looked at her wrists, the bruises were visibly clear, they were black with bruises. Carla's body ached in pain, she didn't know what to do, what has he reduced me to? She thought – tears gathering in her eyes, escaping down her delicate cheeks.
Carla's phone rang again she jumped startled by the increasingly loud ringtone, she let it ring three more times before she answered it, she tried to put on the calmest voice she could but her body was still convulsing with shakes. "Erm… hhello" Carla said shakily, "Oi Car you said you would call me and you didn't, I've rang you five times now, anyway where the 'eck are you?"Michelle said laughing not realising the physical and mental pain her best friend was going through. "Ssorry 'Chelle I… I just" Carla stopped she couldn't think of anything to say her mind was blank, "Car is everything okay, what's the matter?" Michelle said concerned. "Nothing 'Chelle I'm just a… a little sick that's all, erm… talk tomorrow" she said before quickly before hanging up and bursting out in tears again, she couldn't help it, she couldn't stop herself this time, he had taken everything from her.
