It was amazing what a little make-up could do, Sam thought as she caught a glimpse of her reflection in the window of the quaint little flower shop as she reached for the handle. She had never been a fan or a user of foundation and cover-up but it turned into a necessity lately - especially when Reece's violent streaks sent his fists towards her face. He was usually careful making sure his blows landed on her torso or upper legs where no one would see them if she dressed 'properly'. Last night though the alcohol had put him in a tailspin and the fact that she apparently burnt his dinner didn't help. She had thought she would never get the shiner on her right cheek covered up - it hurt to even run the small sponge over it but she had forced herself to do it. She had to get out of the house and with Reese at work it was her only chance.
For a moment Sam stared at her reflection wondering how it had come to this... when had her life altered so dramatically that she was impressed with her own hiding skills? Who was she becoming? They were questions that plagued her restless mind as she pulled open the door of the shop, the sweet aroma of the wide assortment of flowers greeting her as she stepped inside the soothing palace.
