Abuse Reactions
Chapter 9: See Him The Way I See Him
Ronette's POV Letter format
Audrey,
I am so worried about you. Crystal and Chiffon are too. We can see how poorly Orin treats you and can't fathom why you'd stay in the relationship. Before you started to date him I warned about how weird he is and how he came from an abusive home life. At least you have that in common. Sadly, I think that's the only thing that you do have in common. I don't know what other common ground the two of you have found.
Do you see what I mean about how he seems to get a natural from high from other people's pain? He obviously loves to see you in pain and look so horrible the way you do all battered and bruised. All three of us are sick to our stomachs seeing how poorly he treats you. Hopefully you are beginning to see him for the sadistic monster he truly is.
We love you and want what is best for you. Please consider leaving Orin.
Love
Ronette
