>Your eyes stare into the mirror above the sink, as you brace yourself for what you’re about to do. >Your rainbow mane is ruffled. >Your cyan coat has traces of snot and dried up tries. >But worse of all. >Your left wing is limp against your body. >Forced to flex, as it hangs lifelessly from it's socket. >No matter how long you stare at it, it doesn't make the task at hand any easier. >You fill your lungs with air, and hold it in. >Grabbing your wing between your hooves, you push with all your might. >A loud pop echos around the room, and the breath you held comes rushing out as a scream. >Fresh tears stream down your face. >The pain that followed such an act was beyond describable, but at least you can somewhat feel your wing now. >You are thankful that flyer school had taught you how to mend a broken wing in the field. >Your breath comes out ragged, your body is trembling, and vision is a word your mind can barely comprehend. >What feels like hours is actually mere moments. >You slowly open the cabinet, and reach for some bandages >Tentatively wrapping your limp appendage. >All you can do is hope that’s all it will need to heal properly. >Even if it heals you could never forget the sound it made when it was pulled from its socket. >That disgustingly loud pop that you are sure only your ears could hear. >The experience was made worst when the paralyzing pain that surged through your body afterwards. >All you could do was cradle yourself till the pain subsides, and that took hours before it even numbed a little bit. >Your mind started going over the past events, and the more you thought of it, the more you thought you deserved it. >Anon had every right to break your wing, to remind you not to make him angry. >You shouldn’t have dropped that plate while making dinner. >You shouldn’t have yelled back when he called you a clumsy, useless cunt. >Today at work made you forget your place. >A co-worker bailed making you stay far longer than you would like. >You were still agitated when you returned home, and you needed to vent >Fury consumed your thoughts. >Maybe some cloud glue on their route next time will show them. >You should of paid attention to how hot the plate was. >But you didn't. >The pain from holding a hot plate in your hooves caused you to drop it. >Spilling Anon's food all over the floor. >Anon looks up from his newspaper. >And the first thing he does is to insult you. >You were in no mood for that, so you insult him right back. >That caused him to raise from his seat, while he shouted more insults towards you. >Not backing down, you continued to shout back. >Apparently Anon had enough, as he started to walk towards you. >His hands balled into fists. >There was so many things you could have done in that instance. >But you weren't thinking straight, as you press your back against the oven, shouting at him for getting closer to you. >You waited to late to move out of the way. >Anon rushed you down, and maneuvered his body on top of yours. >His hands wrapped tightly against your wing, and then. >You shake your head, but it doesn't stop the sounds, nor the quick jolt of pain that runs through your wing. >Anon left you afterwards. >Saying that he was going to cool off somewhere. >Raising you head to look in the mirror. >Looking worse than when you walked in somehow. >You need to clean up. >You need to fix Anon a proper dinner. >You need to apologize to him, and beg for forgiveness. >Anon is a wonderful husband. >He provides for you, takes care of you, and even makes enough money so you don’t have to work full time anymore. >So long as you don’t make him mad your marriage was nothing but sunshine and rainbows. >With you wing fully wrapped in bandage, you give it a gentle flex, relived to see it moved slightly. >Now all you need to do is come up with lie that would appease your friends. >Hopefully they buy it just one more time.
