*beep beep*

That annoying alarm clock sets off letting me know it's time to get started with my day.

I was about to get up but felt a huge weight on my back and I knew for sure it had to be none other than my 'loving' wife, Hannah.

She came home drunk last night after work and hanging out with her friends. I mean who seriously hangs out in the middle of the week, knowing they have work this morning.

"Hannah, get up" I said but she wouldn't budge.

"Get up" I said louder this time but she only mumbled and refused to get off my back and after a few more times of asking nicely, I rose up as she rolled off my back, landing straight on the floor and then and only then did she truly wake up.

"What is wrong with you!?" She shouted clearly upset.

"What do you mean what's wrong with me, what's wrong with you? I've been asking you nicely to get up because I have to get dressed for work" I explained.

"Yeah but you didn't have to push me off the bed" she said looking at me with a death stare.

"I didn't intend to throw you on the ground, just off my back" I explained.

"You know what, I'm not even going to bother arguing with you because you always think you're right" she said in disgust.

"Maybe because I am. Have you ever thought how stupid you can be sometimes? You argue for the slightest mishaps" I explained.

"Slightest mishaps? I could've damaged my head when I fell of this bed" she said in an angry tone.

"Ok. Now you're overreacting" I stated.

"What do you mean I'm overreacting?" She questioned.

"The ground isn't that far from the bed" I stated the obvious.

"Yeah but I could've gotten hurt regardless of how far the ground is from the bed. I mean have you seen my sweet,tender little head and have you seen how solid those tiles are?" She questioned.

"Your head is anything but sweet and tender" oops it accidentally slipped out of my mouth and by the look on her face it was too late to retract that statement no matter how true it was.

"Why you son of a....." she began but she stopped when she heard a little voice cry out.

"It's Madison. I'll get her" I said but she stopped me from getting to my baby girl.

"Wait! I don't trust you with our baby girl. You may throw her down on her head and act like it's no big deal. You're so inconsiderate" she said with disgust as she walked off to get our daughter and I just rolled my eyes since I was way too familiar with this Amazonian attitude she always had. I mean seriously it's like she was up for a verbal war or something. Anyone who argues with her must think she's a psychopath but I've gotten used to her which is why I can bare with her but I don't know for how much longer if she keeps being this annoying and immature.

I get out of bed, brush my teeth, take a shower, get dressed, comb my hair, put on my watch and wedding ring and then head to the kitchen where a 'hot' breakfast was waiting for me.

"You're kidding right?" I asked as I looked at both Hannah and the leftover pizza she placed on the table.

"Do I look like I'm kidding? I can't cook anything now, I'm busy with Madison" She asked as she glared at me with our baby girl in her hand. My baby girl kept making signs with her hands that she wanted me to take her away from that horrid creature she has to call a mother but Hannah was still being a bitch even though Madison began crying for me so I just  got a coffee mug, got some coffee and after I gulped it down, I kissed both Hannah and Madison before I left.

Madison's kiss was full of passion but Hannah's kiss was sort of bitter but still better than nothing. I'm actually surprised she still kissed me though after this morning's events. Not that I did anything wrong by getting her off me so that I can go to work and earn some money to take care of our family. I also left behind the leftover pizza because seriously I'm not in the mood. I'll just stop off at IHOP and get something on my way.

After a quick meal of pancakes and orange juice, I continue my journey to work. When I get to work, I go to my ofgice and sit all day just telling people what to do. It's not as fun as it looks because you get bored just sitting in an office with nothing to do but it's better than home because when I do return home, there's problems waiting for me as well and that basically sums up the life of me,

An Annoyed Man.
