This is all I got so far, π
"You do know when I first married you, I'd agreed in the hope that one day you'll change!" shouted Leanne, slamming the three parking ticket fines down on the table before her husband David; who was quite easily dodging her presence to get better view around her in attempt to not miss the big game on the telly.
"Yeah whatβ¦" his voice muttered in return. His way out of domestic arguments that had been trending in his home since the last few years was to do what every man would do - act like he was paying attention.
When they'd first got married everything was fine, the same things all couples hoped for were in easy reach, but then what changed?
Leanne remembered the first time she met David, he was literally running circles around her, she met him one rainy night at the local pub, and that was it, he was determined that she was the 'one' for him. Over the years, they lived - what one would call 'a happily married life', right up until the time of his surgery. David suffered severe injury to his back and had underwent surgery, which of course resulted him in taking complete bed rest. At first it was okay, things were bad, but Leanne knew she was obliged by duty of love to pay heed to whatever David needed, during his time of being practically invalid.
The kids were taken care of by her; bills were being paid; shopping trips were done alone, all the while David recovered.
It wasn't long before she realised that her husband had become so accustomed to this lifestyle that was made possible because of her, that he hadn't wanted things to change.
During this course of time he had become ignorant, and selfish, he only saw himself, and whenever she'd decided to talk with him about letting things return to how they once were, he would deter from the subject completely. This time had bought heavy change to their married life, when he finally agreed to shift his weight around household chores, he did so in such a manner, that he'd come back by making things worse.
Discussions had become horrifically disastrous to such extents, that the pair only narrowed down their conversations to when it required utmost attention from either party.
