Woman's Perogative

You noticed someone fumbling with the door handle and barely notice your own retort. “So what if Ashley Jones moved to her father’s house?”

Embarrassing Rachel Mik Tyr by illuminating her own failure to consider her husband’s wishes failed to have the desired effect. However, that would have been expected if you had actually thought about what you wanted to say beforehand.

Thankfully Ashley comes to your rescue carting three large suitcases. You grab two for her, and she pointedly kisses you passionately in front of her mother. “Thank you my love.”

“I am living with my fiancée now and that solves the problem of living under ‘your’ roof mother.”

You are surprised that Ashley heard your creative storytelling. However, abundantly thankful you are, as Rachel now seems to take that as proof that you did speak truly. She is stunned speechless as she gathers her wits.

Instead of waiting, Ashley and you load her luggage into the trunk of your prehistoric bug of a car. You did own a much nicer one that you drove around normally but while delivering Pizza you preferred something that used less fuel and/or cheaper fuel more efficiently than your Porsche 911.

You opened the passenger door but as Ashley stepped in Rachel strode up tentatively and abundantly contrite. Her whole demeanor is completely different now than it was before.

“Please Ashley, dear get your fiancée to take the luggage back out and come back inside. Think of what your father would want.” Rachel tries desperately to persuade her daughter away from your evil male clutches.

If only Rachel knew how evil my clutches had truly been you smirk.

The chagrin humiliating look on Rachel's face is priceless and instantly puts you in an even better mood.

Rachel may have gotten somewhere other than spinning her wheels on dry pavement if the truth was illuminated. The materia being such as it is, Ashley smirks at her mother and shuts her door resoundingly. “Father absolutely approved of me escaping your corrupting demonic influence.”

You move over to your side of the car and get in to start the car.
