Hi.
We had a visitor today from Venice; Ludovico. He's a cousin of mine, I like him. But...then Othello hit me. And I don't know what to do. I swear I didn't do anything wrong! I'm just trying to be a good wife and he goes and repays me by HITTING me. I didn't deserve that!! All I did was say I was happy about Cassio's new position. And then he freaking insulted me. I didn't know whether to stay or go! In front of Ludovico, too! Obviously, husbands are the masters of the household and can treat their wives how they see fit, but in private, not make a public spectacle of it!
I don't know if I'm more disappointed in myself or in Othello. I just wish he had berated me privately, for whatever I've done to displease him. I hate that he's angry with me. I don't know what to do and I still can't find the handkerchief. I feel as though that will solve all the problems but I just don't know where I put it...*sigh*. I just...don't know what I'm supposed to do now...Here's a picture of it, though, in case anyone sees it:
