You do not have to be abused.
What 'z' is doing is against America's law and against God's law.
Take what you have left and call 911 and then sit on the curb and wait for them.
Do not stay there another hour.
it does not matter if you have no ID or there is an outstanding ticket.
You are a victim of abuse and are a 'battered woman'.
Even if you are an illegal immigrant, the United States will get you started in the right direction so don't worry about that.
You will be WAY better off inside the system of the United States than you are with 'z'.
When a woman is abused like you have been, it is hard for them to see what to do and this is called 'battered woman syndrome'.
Once again, take a bag of what you have left and call 911 and say this exactly:
'I am a battered woman and am escaping my abuser. I don't have much time, please come to (say your address) and get me before he kills me.'
Say it exactly like I have written and then go to the curb and wait for them. They will come and take you to a safe place where you will be fed and protected and 'z' will not be able to find you or contact you.
Don't worry about trying to get any money he owes you. That is over with and not worth your life.
Once you are safe inside a shelter you will have access to another computer and then you can contact us and let us know that you are ok. There are many many people on this site that are very worried about you and don't know how to help other than the above advice.
GET OUT NOW. THIS MINUTE. Make that call to 911.
