SHARON???
“Didn’t want to leave. No real choice.”
“I hate you. I never want to see you again.”
“I don’t know if she meant those words or not. But once words are released, they’re hard to get back. She didn’t even try to get them back.”
“I’m going for a drive. When I get back, I don’t want you here!” SLAM!!!
“The conclusion was pretty easy to understand? I packed. Get out. Don’t bother looking back.”
“I was lucky to get the ticket. Good thing the final fight was payday.”
HONK! HONK!! HONK!!!
“Sharon?? What the devil does she want now?”

I get the feeling Sharon does want him to leave after all. Great take.

I think Sharon’s opening up the whole can of worms, again. Good job Roger.

Sounds pretty normal.
Did he really say “What the devil”? No wonder she’s pissed off.

Dear Roger,
I’d say Sharon’s pretty clear. Although maybe her honking is second thought?
Shalom,

I think Sharon had forgotten it was his payday. There’s no way she could let him leave with a full check.

Agreed? I hadn’t thought of that as the reason for a quick reconciliation!

I have a feeling, it’s Sharon who has to make a choice this time…. I have a feeling the narrator might stand his ground this time

He should get on the bus anyway. She’ll send him crazy – and he’s already invested in the ticket. Fun story.

He must forgotten to put the toilet seat up?? LOL – some people want to be take seriously but ask not to take anything they say (in anger) seriously…Sharon must be one of those.
Nice story.

He really should get on the bus. Even if she wants him back, there’s a bit more to do than honking after these outbursts.

After reading the comments, Roger, I gues the pay check may have had something to do with her changing her mind. Well done. 🙂 — Suzanne
