Fiance's lies/betrayal

Re: Fiance's lies/betrayal

^ I know. You can see it in slow motion in your head...as if watching a video. You're standing only a few feet away from mom. She's mad at you. Then her anger level goes up a notch, manifesting itself in uncontrollable stinging verbal outbursts. Then everything goes quiet for a few seconds. You think she has calmed down. You wonder why she has stopped yelling. You wonder why she's bending down. You wonder what she's looking for. Then you spot that dreaded shoe **BEFORE **she does.

You turn around and give yourself a head start by running BEFORE she even has the chance to raise the shoe. You look at your destination.........THE OPEN DOOR. You tell yourself "I can make it. I can make it through the door." You run faster than a marathon contestant. But sadly, you lose the race against the shoe.....which was hurled moments AFTER you began running. With the throwing of the shoe.....her anger miraculously disappears. And you see her slump in sofa, calmly reading the newspaper.
