After months of bottling up choice words meant for her brother, Shana was finally about to errupt. When she arrived home from work, he was crashed out on the sofa, for the umpteenth time and she knew he had no intentions of finding work again today.
She chunked her keys right at his backside, when he juped, he hit the wooden arm of the old wood-braced couch and muttered a few obscenities under his breath.
Ryan knew he was on a short leash with her, after all she'd been footing the bills for three months now and was complaining about over-grown eyebrows and disfigured nails. Yadi-yadi-yada...
"Get your butt up and go take a shower, I smelled you in the hallway!" Shana proclaimed rather loudly.
His head spinning from the bump combined with his bad habit, he slowly rose up and stumbled towards their bright yellow bathroom. He often times stared at those walls and wondered if Shana had painted them yellow to drive him insane. Not light yellow, not even antique yellow, no, this was the brightest neon yellow ever seen without a welder's mask!
While Ryan cleaned up, Shana ironed Ryan a fresh blue button down shirt and a pair of khaki slacks, hoping to convince him to find a job tonight. She had sacrificed a lot in the past few months just to make ends meet. By the end of the week, she didn't even have enough left for gum.
Ryan asked for gas money at least twice a week, supposedly for his mileage while searching for a job. Unfortunately she feared that he was out tomming about somewhere, or out roading with his loser friends.
If he didn't get a job by tomorrow night, Shana was going to have to teach him a hard lesson...stay tuned for part two...coming soon to a USM page near you!!
