Everyone that goes through trauma reacts to it differently....... others are so emotionally broken that they hide and self isolate while others may respond to it more violently.............. in this novel we see a little bit of both reactions.

Getting Even: The Road to Revenge

"I feel so sick." I complained to Buhle the second he walked into our room. 


He had just gotten back home from work. I still didn't have a job. I stayed home. Today I felt all types of sick, from nauseous to exhausted. I felt like I was nursing a hangover. 


"I bought you something." Buhle told me and Handed me a brown bag. 


I took the bag and looked inside it. "I'm not pregnant." I argued 


"I just wanted to make sure every possible explanation for your feeling sick was laid out on the table." 


" I'm not pregnant and I'm a testing for it." 


"Okay..... okay..... then let's go to the hospital and you can't say no." 


"............ they'll have me on more antibiotics and I hate medication." 


"Babe..... it's either antibiotics or you get worse..... come on, dress up. Let's go."
