Freedom

by E. Nigma

Struggling model Tanisha is on her last leg pondering suicide after having one of the worst nights in her life. Searching to find any reason to live, Tanisha looks back on her traumatic life, which includes her abusive father, who spent years taking out his frustrations on her mother… and eventually her. It’s something that has always haunted her since becoming aware of it at the age of five. As she grows older, she struggles to maintain a meaningful relationship until she meets and falls in love with Marcus, a wealthy stockbroker. When their relationship hits hard times, Tanisha finds herself in the same situation her mother was in after vowing never to stay with a man who abuses her. Things continue to escalate between the couple. When Tanisha witnesses her now five-year-old-daughter being traumatized as she once was at that age, she decides she can’t pass this monster on to her daughter as it was passed to her. It’s one woman’s story of abuse and the struggle she faces to remove both her and her daughter from the traumatic life she’s had to endure.

This was a very well written story but such a tragedy! I did not expect things to end the way they did. I love how the author brought the issue of domestic violence to light. It is an issue that truly does not get enough attention until it is too late.This story shows how the cycle can go on from one generation to the next. I just hate that Tanisha, the main character felt she had no other way to break the cycle. Despite what is going on, no one deserves to be abused, physically or mentally. Great job by the author. Fairly new to his works but he never disappoints.

Very good read. I know personally how domestic violence can be a vicious cycle. I wish it would have had more positive outcomes though.
