After He Threw Wine In My Face, The Judge Finally Saw The Truth-Kamy
My husband threw red wine in my face in a room full of his coworkers. I got in the car without a word. By Friday, the police report had his name on a restraining order.
It happened at his coworker's birthday party, beside a snack table covered in paper plates and bowls of chips. I was talking to a woman I had just met when one of his friends stepped close to grab a chip. I looked up for maybe two seconds, the way anyone looks up when another person enters their space. That was all it took.
My husband crossed the room with a glass of red wine in his hand. He did not ask me what I was doing. He did not pull me aside. He just stopped in front of me and threw the whole drink into my face.
Wine burned my eyes, ran up my nose, and soaked through my white blouse. The room went silent in that awful way a room goes silent when everyone knows they just watched something unforgivable, but nobody wants to be the first person to say it. Then he looked around and said, "That's what she gets for looking at other men."
