“Do the dishes, you say, do the hoovering, do the washing, go shopping, take out the recycling, cook dinner.”
Betty ran her hands through her hair in stress and paced the kitchen.
“I’m so sick of it, sick of being told what to do, you’re always commanding, demanding. Do this, do that, wear this, don’t say that.”
She kicked the unconscious man at her feet.
“Well no more, you won’t tell me to do a single damn thing ever again.”
She brought the iron down in an arc, striking his already damaged skull.
“No, I won’t do your dishes.”
