The Making of The Huntress
involuntarily had an
orgasm. Although I knew it was merely a physiological response I
was very upset with myself for having an orgasm. Finally Matt came
and then he lay down beside me and started to fall asleep but he
wouldn’t let go of my hand. I’m lying there trying to think how was
I going to get out of there when I finally heard him start snoring.
Slowly, I slipped my hand out of his, put on my clothes and quietly
got out of the house. I drove straight to the police station and
followed them back to my house where they arrested Matt’s crazy
ass. I can’t believe he was still there, sleeping nonetheless.
    Despite a restraining order against him,
when Matt was released on bail he promptly began to stalk me. I
ended up moving out of that apartment due to what happened there
and now lived closer to some of my relatives just in case I had
more problems with Matt and I certainly did. I had gotten a new job
where I didn’t get home until around 12am and when I arrived Matt
would come walking out of the bushes begging me to take him back.
The situation was made worse due to the fact that Matt and I had
found out we were having a baby about a week before he attacked me.
Eventually, Matt was arrested again for violating the restraining
order since he wouldn’t stop showing up at my place he ended up
going to jail for a year. While in jail he still tried to reach out
to me through other people. I made the decision to terminate my
pregnancy because I didn’t want any ties to Matt that would mean
having to deal with him after he got out of jail. That was my first
pregnancy and the decision I made was a hard one but I never
regretted it since I didn’t want a child born into that turmoil and
I couldn’t imagine how I would raise this child while having to
deal with such a horrible father. Relationship number 3 was now
officially over and although it was my shortest relationship it
definitely had had the most negative and long term impact on
me.

5 One True Love?

     
    Who would have ever imagined that a mere
seven months after my boyfriend tried to kill me I would embark on
the happiest relationship of my life. It started with a chance
encounter with an old friend that made me question whether we truly
get second chances in this life. You see during school I had never
admitted any interest in Mark despite the fact that he made me feel
as special as I had been raised to believe I was. In high school
Mark had entirely too many options, so during the one or two times
he flirted with me I had simply ignored him. With more than half
the female population of the high school after him, Mark had
unlimited options when it came to having a girlfriend. Basically, I
cheated myself because although Mark had many options, I may have
been his choice but I never even gave Mark the choice to make.
Despite his numerous attempts at flirting with me, I would decide
he was just playing and act completely uninterested. There was no
pretending to be uninterested that day in the store because I lit
up as soon as he flashed me that gorgeous smile. I knew I’d made
the wrong decision 10 years ago by selling myself short. Well
there’s nothing like life to correct bad decisions. My theory is
that if you have life you have the opportunity to make good
decisions that will make up for prior bad ones and so here we are,
me and Mr. Mark Faison. That day at the store Mark asked me if he
could get my number and if maybe we can hang out sometime. Of
course I eagerly said yes and gave him my number. We discussed our
classmates and how a lot of them weren’t looking so hot to only be
between the age of 24 and 26. Finally, we stopped talking and
realized about an hour had passed by. That hour had gone by quickly
since both Mark and I were big talkers especially when talking to
each other. We both somehow managed to drag ourselves away from the
store but just like he said he would Mark called me that night and
we talked
