Journal # 3
The next night I walked in after a late day at work. I set my bag down a turned on the light. It was about 1 am, I couldn’t believe my supervisor had asked me to work overtime again then he has the nerve to tell that he’ll pay me half now and half later. What an asshole. It was the second time this week. I knew Jessica was probably in bed already and left my dinner in the microwave. As I went into the refrigerator and pulled a six pack from the fridge I heard a shuffling noise upstairs. I figured it was her moving around. I pulled my dinner out of the microwave and saw that it was still warm; she must have reheated it not long before I got in. I grab the food and the beer and plop down on the couch. I put the fork to my mouth and suddenly I feel a Sharpe blade near my throat. I shifted my eyes to see who it was and saw it was Jessica.
“Honey what are you doing" I said
"That’s exactly the same question I was about to ask you " she said in a rather calm voice
"I-I-Im eating" in a nervous voice
“Can you put the knife down I case you didn’t notice it’s near my throat?”
“No, don’t give me that sarcastic tone of voice, you think I wouldn’t know" she said in a menacing voice
“Know what?"
“Thomas don’t play dumb I know your cheating on me "she said
“Cheating Me never...”
"I don’t want to hear another word out of you for the rest of the night, and don’t even think your coming upstairs you’re sleeping down here" she yelled
I broke into a cold sweat wiping my head but no moister was on it.
My stomach was turning, and my mind was spinning, I can’t believe she just did that to me ...put a knife to my throat!?!?!
All the sudden everything turned black.
