My right hand connected with his left cheek.
I heard a crunching sound.
The knife fell from his hand and he fell to the floor.
His cheek was busted open.
That didn’t stop him.
He tried to kick me.
That didn’t work.
I reached down and grabbed for him.
He took a shot at me, punching me in the ribs.
It hurt, but not much.
My left hand pulled at his shirt.
My right hand connected with his cheek again.
I pulled him up one more time.
That’s when April grabbed my right wrist and tugged.
“Seb, you have to stop,” she said.
I looked back at her.
Rage in my eyes.
Tears in her eyes.
“He hurt you,” I said. “And it wasn’t just today. He’s been hurting you. For how long?”
“Just let me call the police,” she said. “Okay? That’s how this ends. You saw what he did. He can go away now.”
“I can make him go away,” I said.
“No. Not like that. You can’t end up hurting yourself, Seb. You can’t ruin your life for me.”
Just hearing her say that…
I pulled my hand from April.
I hit the guy one more time and that was it.
I released my hold on him and backed away.
“Call the police, April,” I said. “Do what you need to do next here.”
The guy on the floor writhed in pain.
“I’m going to sue you! I’m going to make sure you go to jail!”
I stomped at him and he screamed and rolled across the kitchen floor.
