Abuse and don’t know what to do

Kyla

My friend has been in a relationship for a little over a year now and like all relationships, they have their highs and their lows.

I’ve told her a few times after they’ve argued to be carful because he’s quite good and manipulating. Not only her but he’s our boss and I see it there too.

Usually this is all and they make up.

However tonight he’s left a mark on her arms pushing her away. And she’s called me sobbing to the point I thought she was gonna pass out.

She doesn’t know what to do.

I told her she’s gotta leave him. And she knows she should. But with everyone currently being on furlough, our jobs not being in our home countries and her country making everyone stay in and pay for quarantine hotels, she feels trapped. What’s more is, from next week I’m physically not here because of a new job in a different country.

I have no idea how to help her, I’m her only support out here now. I’m really worried things will escalate with him and next time it be worse than a few scratches on her arms. He has gone to punch her before but punched the wall just to scare her.

I don’t want to leave her like this.

Searching for any advice, numbers to call etc. If it helps we’re in the Canary Islands and speak very little Spanish.
