Chapter 2

However, shortly after starting to eat, Christina did not realize that Mrs. Evans was looking at her with a rather serious and threatening look from the position of her chair in the dining room. Roberta had brought her a freshly brewed cup of coffee when she ordered it a couple of minutes ago, just as she finished taking care of the dishes, and when Roberta brought her the coffee cup, Mrs. Evans exploded with rage, throwing the He aired the card game he had in his hand because the game was about to end. She was winning that game, and that did not matter to her only enough to make that scandal, everyone at the table fell silent immediately, and looked at her with terror, because when Mrs. Evans got angry it was as if the world around her he was forced to stop doing everything he did so that she had his attention. Instead of being a person who, when she got angry, liked her privacy, she was the type of person who, when she got angry, liked that everyone look at her and fear and respect her. Mrs. Evans got up from her chair, yelled at Roberta to look for the umbrella, Roberta listened to her, took the umbrella that she had kept in the kitchen, opened it, and put it on top of her employer's head so that she not get wet when leaving the dining room to the patio going to where Christina was "What are you doing Christine?" says Mrs. Evans to Christina walking up to her "I'm having lunch, isn't she watching?" Christina responds, still chewing on her salad. That people had the nerve to respond to her bothered her too much, and even more so when it came to Christina, the only daughter-in-law that her only son had given her and the only one she didn't want. Reacting to her response, Mrs. Evans grabbed the plate that Chridtina had on the table that was still full of food, and she forcefully threw it to the ground on top of a puddle of mud that was there around two o'clock. "Stop and eat from there!" Mrs. Evans yells at Christina. "What the fuck did you do!?" Christina yells furiously at her mother-in-law badly from her. "What was it that I did? I threw your food on the ground so you can eat from there" the lady replies angrily. Christina still didn't understand why her mother-in-law hated her so much since their marriage, when she and James were dating, there were hardly any words between them, now, those few words had turned into abuse that Christina wouldn't be sure if she could put up with. "What do you eat from the ground I have told you ungrateful!" her mother-in-law yells at him. It was obvious that Christina was not going to commit such humiliation, she remained seated in her chair, but her mother-in-law was more agile, and she grabbed her hair so hard that with a single jerk she caused Christina to fall to her knees, dirtying her jeans. mud and wet grass. After Christina fell to her knees, Mrs. Evans made Christina start eating the food on the floor. Everyone in the dining room saw him, there were many whispers, laughter, Michael looked at everyone, he felt the humiliation, he wanted to run away from there because from that moment on, he had fallen on everyone's lips. Roberta saw everything very closely, she felt the water falling down her body because the umbrella was only covering her employer, because if Roberta got under the umbrella next to Mrs. Evans without an order from her, she was capable of she touched him something worse than what Christina was experiencing. "That's right, eat the food on the floor like what you are, a ***" says Mrs. Evans with a voice of pride at what she was doing. A short time later, Mrs. Evans got bored of seeing Christina eat the food thrown in the mud and returned to the dining room to continue with the power game as if nothing had happened. Her family fell over the instant the woman entered the room and sat down. Michael was looking at Christina from his seat, Christina was looking at Michael, she was crying, she was crying uncontrollably, she was getting wet from the rain that kept falling without wanting to stop, and her clothes, her arms and her face were smeared with mud. She could not believe that her husband, the man she loved, had been able to remain silent seeing that her mother was committing such humiliation with the woman that she was her wife and mother of her children. . Christina couldn't stand it, she stood up and ignoring the looks of the servants as she passed through the kitchen, she ran out of the house without saying anything to anyone. Without notifying her husband where she would go because she had no direction. She just wanted to be as far away from that family as possible. The afternoon sky was covered by a layer of gray clouds, there were no cars passing on the street, she Christina began to walk as if she were a zombie that had no sense of direction. She wouldn't stop crying, who knows for how long she would, but she didn't care, crying was the only remedy and consolation she had for her life so dramatic, she didn't understand it, she didn't understand why James's family behaved like that with she; her treating him like a servant when she wasn't. Then her mind went blank as she kept walking in the middle of the street, until she didn't see it coming, but a car was coming speeding down the street with no lights on, and no way to stop. The last thing Christina remembered was hearing the sound of a loud bang and seeing how everything around her went black.
