"Bye!" Jack waved his hand enthusiastically, then sat down on the couch with a long huff. A smile could not leave his face because tonight he had a very pleasant entertainment.

He sat in the middle of the couch and spread his arms, his hands resting casually on both arms of the couch.

Jack smiled broadly when he saw Elsa return to the living room after escorting the new neighbors who wanted to end their visit because apparently Kristoff's mood suddenly changed. Kristoff and Anna had a little argument before finally deciding to go home.

"That was fun, Elsa. You were right, who would have thought inviting neighbors to the house could be so much fun. We have to do it often." Jack grinned wildly. His neat teeth shone like pearls from the south, too.

"Weird, huh? New bride. At first, intimate. Now? They fight." Elsa said counting on her fingers.

"I already guessed." Jack waved his hand dismissively. Made Elsa frown.

"Guessed what?"

"You know, at that time we talked."

"Talked what?"

"Yeah, I just said, 'Marriage is no fun. Marriage is hard work. Like working in an office. There's an employer, and there's an employee." Jack explained casually.

Hearing Jack's words, Elsa folded her arms across her chest. She raised her both perfectly shaped eyebrows, staring straight at Jack.

"Is that so?" Elsa paused, she titled her head. "So, Jack. Tell me. In our family, who is the employer and who is the employee?" She asked in a voice that could make goosebumps. Jack's face turned pale and his body seemed to shrink. His hands were glued on both sides of his body.

"Yes of course you are the employer. I'm the employee. You often tell me to do something. Right?" Jack answered softly. There was a hint of fear in his voice.

Now, Jack could see fire in Elsa's eyes. Her hands lowered to her waist and her shoulders tightened. This time the colour drained from his face. His face looked even whiter than his teeth.

"You know, right? Ninety percent of our family income comes from me. I cook, I wash dishes, I wash clothes, I clean up the house." Elsa dropped her hand and pointed at jack.

"Take your words back!" With that, Elsa hurried to her room upstairs and left Jack.

Uh, what I have done? Jack swallowed hard and stared blankly at something in front of him.

Kristoff was coming down the stairs when he heard the bell ring. He speed up his pace and immediately opened the door.

He was just about to see who had come to visit, when someone in a black shirt walked in. Even before the door opened completely.

"You're lousy, Kristoff." Said a voice, and turned out to be Jack's. He looked nervous about something. His hands on his hips and his eyes facing the floor.

"Because of you I fought with my wife." Jack added. His eyes squinted at Kristoff dangerously.

Kristoff's brows furrowed. "Me? How come? What are you guys fighting about?"

Jack sighed heavily and looked back at the floor. "My fate is just like you. Do you remember, yesterday when you fought with your wife at my house?" He waited for Kristoff to nod his head before finally continuing. "Turns out it's contagious." He said with confident. Seriously confident.

Unexpectedly, Kristoff laughed. He patted Jack on the shoulder until he finally finished laughing.

"Don't be silly, Jack. And don't you equalize my fate with yours. Just so you know, Me and Anna are fine. We don't fight anymore." Kristoff said, grinning proudly.
