Matilda walked out of the bathroom slowly. She heard justin gasp when he saw her. He reached his hand out to her. "Come here" he said. Matilda took his hand and he guided her to sit next to him. He seemed to be examining her ring finger. A small but noticeable scar ran across it.
~Flashback~
Matilda was minding her own business when she was shoved and pinned against the wall. That annoying redhead, tom, grabbed a knife and shoved it through her finger. He left her there. Her screams of agony were ignored
~end of flashback~
Tears came to Matildas blue eyes. She remembered that day. Justins eyes landed on the rows of scars that stretched from her cleavage to the top of her breasts. "Who gave you these" he asked. "Felicia" Matilda said. Justin shuddered at the thought of his dead wife. A soft sob from Matilda pulled him from his thoughts. "Matilda. They had no right to treat you that way. Someone as innocent as you should never have to go through that" justin said as he wiped her tears away. "Will you stay with me tonight?" Matilda asked. "Anything for you" justin said.
