You didn’t want to marry him.

Your family made you, and it didn’t get better after you married him.

You did every chore, laundry, the dishes, you cooked and baked everything, you name it. You took care of your three kids single-handedly. You took care of the whole house. And every time you asked him for help, he said he was tired from work or had another shitty excuse.

————————————————————————————————————

Today, you were especially tired from just everything. Yet when Bernhard came home from work, you still helped him take off his coat and shoes. The big dinner you had made was waiting at the table, the children already asleep.

“How was work today..?” You mumbled as you walked to the opposite end of the table where he was sitting, sitting down to a chair.
