My parents recently had a bet. If my mom won, she wanted my dad to not talk in the car for a week. If my dad won, he wanted a sexual favor.
This does not paint a favorable picture of marriage for me. Instead of conversing with your soulmate, you would rather have them mute. And instead of a voluntary act of expressing love, sex is a forced act, the tragic result of losing a bet
My dad ended up winning the bet and said he wanted "the usual." I exited the room mortified so I don't know (nor do I ever want to know) what that entails.
This would be funny if it wasn't about me. Good writing though. Very succinct.
