Amidst the mangrove islands, I see my blood splattered against the white wall. Fixed in my canvas chair, I recall the moment of impact, feeling as numb now as then. The narrative begins on the wedding night of Luke and Charlotte. While Charlotte sleeps, Luke watches the sunrise, contemplating the black eye he received after a violent disagreement. What should be a blissful occasion turns dark when Charlotte backhands him, revealing a terrifying side of her he knows will resurface. Initially, Luke attempts to help her confront her issues, but she remains in denial. As her anger escalates unpredictably, Luke grapples with a mix of love, pity, and fear. Her violent outbursts diminish his self-worth, leading him to believe he deserves her wrath. He becomes desperate to please her, hoping to avert her explosive rage. Trapped in this nightmare, Luke’s experience mirrors that of countless others facing domestic violence. The story offers a stark, unflinching look at the complexities of domestic abuse, told from the perspective of a male victim. It challenges societal norms and highlights that domestic violence impacts everyone, revealing the potential for darkness and rage within us all.
