My Journey Through Two Unforgettable Incidents

Among the many small incidents there’s two big incidents that I’ll never forget. The first major incident was July 2nd, 2018 my ex and I were in an argument(I don’t remember what it was about) but he had a big, glass A&W mug with kool-aid in it & he threw the kool-aid all over me when I was sitting on our bed. Obviously that upset me so I grabbed the closest thing, which was a 3 inch tall container of Johnnys hunters blend seasoning, and threw it back towards him. I missed & hit the corner which broke the lid off and dusted him with seasoning. I knew he was going to be mad so I turned and started going through the door down a step into the laundry room. He yelled something “bitch” at me so with one foot down the step I turned back & was met with that heavy, A&W mug hitting me directly in the mouth. I fell to the ground crying & heard my ex say “stop being so dramatic” I remember thinking “I’ll show you ‘dramatic’” & stood up to face him with my mouth opened, blood pouring out. He had broken out one and a half of my top teeth & pushed my lower two center teeth back/out of place. A few hours later I was somehow comforting him…
The second big incident was when I was 19 weeks pregnant with my son (who he is the biological father of) & he had driven away instead of letting me in the car. I started walking the direction him & his friend with him had gone & found them parked at the end of a col-de-sac with some guy talking in the driver window. I walked up & said “I’m his gf & I’m pregnant he won’t let me in the car” the guy said “come on bro she’s pregnant”. Instead of opening the doors he pulled out from the cul-de-sac onto the Main Street for the neighborhood. I grabbed onto the spoiler of his car, he told me to let go & I said “not until you let me in the car”. Instead of letting me in he spooled the cars turbo & TOOK off, since I was holding onto the spoiler I went flying off the back of this car. Somehow I managed to twist myself in the air so the brunt of the impact was taken on my left upper thigh. I had super bad road rash for a while & my palms stung. I called my ex and said my left leg is covered in blood please come pick me up, he refused and hung up on me. A friend who overheard the conversation called and came to get me. In my weekly pregnancy progression photo I took that same night you can see on the bridge of my nose there’s some sort of injury but I don’t remember hitting my face. Luckily, my son was completely unharmed.
