Confessions of a Video Vixen p.41-80

SUMMARY
Karrine is now away from her mother and is living with her father in Arizona. Her life is now getting much better and she is no longer being abused. She lives with her father until she turns 17 and her life starts to go downhill again. She needs to make money so she can do for herself and the only way that she can do that is to become a stripper. She starts to work at a local Arizona strip club and meets a man named Kool G Rap, who was a big rap artist in the late 80s and early 90s. Not knowing that she was only 17, he takes her back to los angeles to live with him and she becomes his unofficial "wife". Soon after she moves in with him, he begins to beat her and cheat on her with no regard for her feelings. About a year into the relationship Karrine is pregnant and the abuse is getting worse as well as Kool G's health. She has contemplated leaving him many times but his verbal and physical abuse has wore her down.

REACTION
Karrine would have to put up with things like this being said to her. Their relationship was very destructive for her and Kool G at the same time. Kool G was so destructive to Karrine and himself because he would hit her and then she would call the police and he would get arrested. Kool G already knew what he was doing to Karrine because he clearly said "You'll just have to suffer". He wanted Karrine to need him because he wanted to have all the power in their relationship.
