Couples

Couples. The couple who sometimes clean my house came today, she has a new boyfriend now a nice looking man who work hard and obey her. I don´t know what happened to her first boyfriend he suddenly disappeared, rumours has it he was a bit violent, and my cleaner is not a woman who tolerates who tolerates that; I think she killed him if found out I will be a character witness in her defence. “My lord, this woman is harmless and have firm buttocks under her cleaning outfit.” It is astoundingly how little we know of people we meet on our daily life. I met a woman who had been married six times this was too much baggage for me to shoulder so I left. George Simenon married his housekeeper who had worked for him through his many marriages, knowing and just waiting, and she, a modest femme de ménage, ended up with the loot.
