"Honey I got the job and I start tomorrow." Frank yelled, "I leave at 6:30 and I'll be home but 5."
"Sounds good now let's get some sleep remember I got a promotion so I need sleep too."
The next morning Frank was shocked that Barbara was awake at 5. "Barbara what are you doing awake?"
"I'm getting ready for work. Oh and when you get home is when I'll get home so we may not eat till 6:30."
"Barbara I'm sorry but I expect 2 things from my wife, 1. She cleans the house 2. She cooks my meals, nothing else that's it. Do you understand?"
Both Frank and Barbara sit up, "Frank I'm am not going to be a housewife who hangs out with other housewives gossiping about other people. I am making money to help provide for both of us and if you don't like that you can leave, but I am not going to be some housewife. I'm going to be a somebody. Now do you understand?" Frank raises his hand almost slapping her until he realised what he was doing. "Frank I'm going to go to work so I'll see you later."
"What about my kiss and I love you?"
"Well Frank you should've thought of that before you spoke and raised your hand at me." Barbara stormed out and slammed the door behind her. A few minutes later Frank leaves to go to work.
