Violence and facts

She spoke of his violence. Did she believe that he was violent? What was her purpose in bringing it up? Did she really believe that he was capable of hurting her? Was she comparing him to him? She said that she was just stating a fact, as if all facts needed to be stated. As if the pain caused by the voicing of a "fact" was inconsequential.

"You tell me what to do," she said. Another comparison. Another "fact".
