This is a really really short flashback chapter. Here's a bit of a warning though as it does get really quite dark and contains sexual violence so if you aren't comfortable with that then stop reading now.

"You wanna take this upstairs?"

Carla crashes against the door as Robert holds her there as she returns his aggressive kisses.

As they open the door and enter the small hotel room, she tries desperately to forget any guilt she might be feeling. But, she can't.

She just can't.

She can't get Nick out of her head. What is she doing? He's been so good to her. She can't do this to him.

As Robert pulls away, she is about to say something, tell him to stop but instead she's forced onto the bed with him on top of her.

She pushes her hands against his chest, "wait Robert, this can't happen."

"Don't worry," he tries to reassure her which just leaves her unsettled as he continues to kiss her despite her reluctance.

"No, Robert. I mean it." She says but this time, he doesn't stop to let her talk.

"Robert," she practically shouts as he continues to claw at her clothes, leaving violent kisses over her face and neck.

"Robert, get off me now!" She continues to yell as she feels him tug at her trousers and pull at the buttons of her shirt.

She can't let this happen. Not again.

She tries, she pushes, she shouts but he doesn't stop.

"Please."

Tears streaming down her face, she realises there's no getting away. There's no Nick to come and save her.

There's no one.

She made sure of that.

And now she's paying the price.

She continues to cry, push, scream, shout but there's nothing she can do to stop him from putting her through the worst thing she has ever been forced to endure once again.

There's nothing she can do until she's lying on the bed in the small hotel room, her clothes scattered everywhere, her make up smudged, just lying.

Broken.
