Her Stash

He---Honey, are we out of peanut butter? She--I don’t know, sweetness, look behind the salt. He---Speak up, I can’t hear you when you mutter. She--Don’t get huffy, it’s not my fault. He–--Well, keeping food here is not a game. She–-And I suppose keeping money here is no joke. He---I’m not going to argue, I’m not to blame. She–-No, you don’t argue, you know we are broke. He---Are you saying you don’t have a stash? She– C’mon man, my BP is going through the roof. He---Well, I know full well you have cash. She–-Maybe so, but I know you have no proof. He---Well, it’s just not worth the mind clutter. She–-No, and not worth insults to half your name. He---Well, I’m sorry for all this over peanut butter. She–-Apology accepted, I will show no shame. © Jun 21 2010 For Paula's "Four Sentences" contest

No one can accept blame anymore, Charles. Very witty the way you presented this exchange between "He and She." Best wishes in the contest! Love, Carolyn
