Morning After ...
Jack wakes up with a huge hangover after attending his company's party.Jack
is not normally a drinker, but the
drinks didn't taste like alcohol at all. He didn't even remember how he got
home from the party. As bad as he was feeling, he wondered if he did
something wrong.
Jack had to force himself to open his eyes, and the first thing he sees is a
couple of aspirins next to a glass of water on the side table.
And, next to them, a single red rose. Jack sits up and
sees his clothing in front of him, all clean and pressed.
He looks around the room and sees that it is in perfect order,
spotlessly clean. So is the rest of the house.
He takes the aspirins, cringes when he sees a huge black eye
staring back at him in the bathroom mirror. Then
he notices a note hanging on the corner of the mirror written in red with
little hearts on it and a kiss mark from his wife in lipstick: 'Honey,
breakfast is on the stove. I left early to get groceries to make you your
favorite dinner tonight. I love you, darling! Love, Jillian.'
He stumbles to the kitchen and sure enough, there is a hot breakfast,
steaming hot coffee, and the morning
newspaper.
His 16 year old son is also at the table, eating.
Jack
asks, 'Son... what happened last night?'
'Well, you came home after 3
a.m., drunk and out of your mind. You fell over the coffee
table and broke
it, and then you puked in the hallway, and got
that black eye when you ran
into the door.'
Confused, he asked his son, 'So, why is everything in
such perfect order and so clean? I have a rose, and breakfast is on the table
waiting for me.'
His son replies, 'Oh, THAT... Mom dragged you to the
bedroom, and when she tried to take your pants off, you screamed, 'Leave me
alone, I'm married!'
