9:11 am
including my passport. >> how did you get the strength to leave that situation? >> i guess there's a little click inside that just says enough is enough. and you can't do this anymore. and you didn't come here to be abused. you came here for love. and you wanted to start a family. and you just have to think what is good for you. if this is not good for you, leave. if this makes you feel pain and hurt, love shouldn't hurt. so it was just a click. you just have to do it. and there was this one man that see me in distress in front of the bank crying that actually gave me his wife's telephone number and said call her. she's going to help you. and she helped me. she worked for a nonprofit organization. she helped me. she got me to the abuse persons program. they helped me get food, shelter and everything.
