Domestic violence can be deadly.
She hears him laugh.  He hears her cry.
She sees the evil in his eyes.

He raises his arm. She screams again.
He gives her to the count of ten.

She says something. He yells at her.
His arm falls in a blur.

His arm falls again. Blood covers the floor.
She closes her eyes and cries no more.
