I had been waiting my chance. The handcuffs weren’t too tight and I’d been clenching and unclenching my fist to make sure that my circulation wasn’t impaired. It wasn’t and if I had listened to the conversation between the three women, I’d been burning with shame and humiliation. I HAD to reaffirm my dominance over those sniggering females. I must admit that I’ve never been into physical violence – but they had just gone TOO far!
Barbara had turned her back on me and I must admit that what I did was cowardly, but face it - I was a little scared of her. Wanted her weak from the first minute. Swung a hard fist at the back of her head - didn't care if I burst my hand. Had to knock the fight out of her immediately.
But it was as if she could actually see my move. Suddenly she wasn't there - and my fist was swinging through nothing but air! Then her smiling face was in front of me.
"Tut tut!" she giggled. "And I thought that you would be as good as gold!" With that she stepped into me - and simply laid a forefinger on my left forearm!
The pain didn't last for more than a second or two - but it was excruciating. Them my whole arm went numb. I stared at her - then to my own horror, knew that I was starting to weep!
