Not Alone
She woke up tired having not slept well the night before. Again. She got up, woke the children, made breakfast, packed lunches, and got the children on the bus for school. She went upstairs to get ready for work. He was still sleeping. She went downstairs and poured her coffee. He’s up now, so she runs out the door to avoid an argument.
She works all day. She leaves, picks up the children from aftercare, and goes home. He’s on the couch playing video games in his pajamas. There are breakfast dishes in the sink. He asks what’s for dinner because he’s hungry. She asks him to help the children with their homework so she can do dishes and make dinner. He laughs.
She does the breakfast dishes, and cooks dinner. He complains that the chicken is dry and asks why she doesn’t make the things he likes more often. The children fight, he ignores them. She helps the children with homework and he watches TV. She argues with the children about bedtime and reminds them to brush their teeth. She sits down, finally, to relax. He asks why she hasn’t cleaned the dishes from the dinner table yet.
She does the dishes and cleans the kitchen. She goes upstairs to get ready for bed. She wonders how she got here and why she isn’t appreciated. She thinks about what could happen if she left him. She feels guilty because the children would be affected, and it’s not that bad anyway; she can handle it. She goes to bed feeling defeated and alone, wondering if things will ever be different.
She doesn’t know that there are many women in the same position. She doesn’t know that there is help and support available. She doesn’t know that she isn’t alone.
