"MARVIN! I TOLD YOU TO REFILL THE GODDAMN BRITA!"
"Sorry dear!" Marvin called out from the bedroom into the kitchen. He wasn't sorry. Later Sue-Ann refilled the Brita.
The next day, Marvin got up and walked over to the fridge. He pulled the Brita jug out and poured himself a tall glass of water, emptying it.
He walked back to the living room. He saw that the red light was blinking on the answering machine. He pushed the button and drank all the water from the glass, very nearly spitting the last of it out when he heard Sue-Ann's angry voice coming from the machine.
"You didn't refill the goddamn Brita, did you Marvin? Did you? How goddamn hard is it to refill the goddamn Brita before you put it in the goddamn fridge? I've told you once, I've told you a thousand times!
"It's not just about the goddamn Brita, Marvin. It's not just about me opening the fridge door and finding that stupid empty jug staring me in the face and picturing your lazy ass putting it back in the fridge. It's everything. I can't take it anymore. I can't handle being around your lazy ass anymore. I can't handle listening to you bitch and complain all day and never do anything for anyone but yourself. I've had enough.
"I really hope you play this message, because I really want you to realize what you just drank. I really want you to learn your lesson before you die."
Marvin set the glass down on the table next to the answering machine. His stomach felt warm.
The warmth began spreading.
