"I said, let go of my arm before I scream," I repeated.
I yanked my hand from his grip and stepped away from him. He did not move an inch as I walked past him.
"Ready Ivy?"
"Yes," she said, walking past Dave.
He grabbed my arm and I stopped.
"We are not breaking up, Mila," he said.
"Believe what you want, Dave," I replied, "I am no longer your girlfriend. You do not deserve to be with me after all the shit you pulled."
He let go of my arm, and I walked away without turning back.
My heart was pounding hard against my chest. I could not believe that I had managed to stand up to him.
