I went to drink in their house but they started drinking a lot and I couldn't stay any longer since I was working the next day and when I went to get my bag, he punched me”, Katherine told me.

Katherine was sent for emergency treatment, and she had some sewing on her face by the cruel attack of her friend's boyfriend.

On the Internet it's not everything that it looks like and I want people to be aware of it”, Catherine said. It took me two years to recover from what happened to me and I don't want anyone to make the same mistake”
