sound okay?” “That sounds wonderful. What about you
teaching me how to use a gun?”
“We will get to it as well, I promise baby girl.”
I’m getting impatient waiting for Marco. It feels like
the hours are dragging by. I’m ready to gain my control
back. I’m going to show all of those motherfuckers that I’m
not a weak or helpless bitch. That I’m one scary bitch.

2 hours later…
Marco finally shows up and he brings in some of his
gear. He’s got boxing gloves, punching bags,hand
wraps,mouth guard. Marco has swords,num-chucks, the whole nine yards. “Sorry I’m late. Sarah held me up,” he
says with a smirk. Vince laughs and shakes his head.
“You’re good, man!” I walk over to where they are
standing. “So Emma, are you ready?” as he claps his hands
together and rubs them together. “As ready as I’ll ever be.”
I sigh.
Marco claps his hand on my shoulder. “Well let’s get
at it then.” I get into position and I watch everything he
does. He shows me different moves and how to block and I
ask him to show me how to choke since that’s one of the
things Ian did to me. I just need to be in control if anything
ever happens.
” Alright Emma, the next thing we’re going to do is
practice some punches and kicks on the punching bag,”

Marco explains. I take a deep breath and start to practice
doing as he instructed.
