He walks into his room with a grin on his face Is it because of my new dress? Surely, that’s not the case He should’ve noticed by now that I rearranged this place The bed was over here when it should’ve been next to the vase I look beautiful in this white dress, don’t you agree? You look surprised, aren’t you happy to see me? What’s with tonight? Darling, it’s our anniversary Oh, did you forget? It’s okay, I know you’re sorry Is that blood on my dress? Yes darling, but the stain is quite old Don’t worry, don’t be so frightened, its tale I won’t withhold You see, there was a man who betrayed me, Oh, he was so bold! You know what I did? I met him calmly at the threshold. He was standing right there, right where you are Oh, the man? Haha, He didn’t really get that far.
