"Lies, don't wanna know, don't wanna know oh.
I can't let you go, can't let you go oh."

"You know when mom and dad died, I made a promise to protect you." Mari started. She sat down in the chair next to my bed.

"I know." I whispered.

"Why did you move to Russia? Where I couldn't protect you from him. Did I do something?" She questioned. I looked at her face. Wrinkles around her eyes from worrying and not sleeping.

I did this to her.

"He wanted to be closer to his family." I replied.

Mari let out a chuckle, "That's the second step of a abusive relationship. Getting the victim alone. Yuuri I love you, but you need to pull your head out of your ass. Open your eyes! He almost blinded you!"

I nodded my head, "Yeah, I know. But he needs me."

"Needs to hit you! Yuuri, I'm begging you. Come home, come with me." Mari grabbed my hand. "Please."

I didn't want to look at her, because if I did, I would go with her. But, maybe she's right. Viktor is being questioned by the police. He's going to get mad. And I'll be the punching bag.

"Okay."
