John’s phone sits on his desk, surrounded by mugs, donut halves, tissue paper, and permanent marker pens. A photo of a smiling toddler is displayed as the wallpaper. John remarried last year and suddenly became a stepfather to a two-year-old boy.
John’s current wife, Sarah, also went through a divorce once. Their marriage is a union of two remarried people, and John is now a second father to Sarah’s son.
There are rumors that John divorced his first wife because of his violence. However, he was able to remarry soon after to another woman with a child.
Now, John is looking for a third wife.
Sarah is devastated. She thought she had found love again, but now she realizes that John is only interested in using her and her son. She knows that she needs to get out of the marriage, but she is afraid of what John will do if she tries to leave.
Sarah decides to reach out to a support group for women in abusive relationships. She meets other women who have been through similar experiences, and she begins to realize that she is not alone.
Sarah gathers her courage and files for divorce. John is furious. He threatens to hurt her and her son if she leaves him. Sarah is scared, but she knows that she has to do what is best for her and her child.
Sarah gets a restraining order against John. She and her son move to a safe place, and they start to rebuild their lives.
Sarah’s story is a reminder that domestic violence can happen to anyone, even in seemingly happy marriages. It is also a reminder that there is hope for victims of abuse. With the support of others, it is possible to break free from an abusive relationship and start a new life.
