Complaining

Complaining

If you complain, you, therefore, explain to yourself

The protagonist, a small, but demanding woman insists on speaking with the company's boss when she faces an odd situation that goes unresolved.

The protagonist, Mrs. Smith, had been married to Mr. Smith for 45 years and they have three children. Mr. Smith has been busy with his career and Mrs. Smith with her family so the two of them have not spoken much recently. One day, Mr. Smith greets her at the door in a suit with colorful flowers in one hand and a suitcase in the other. He greets her with "Hello Dear!" while Mrs. Smith says nothing and only looks at him disapprovingly. She goes into the bedroom to pack some clothes and he follows her in to try to explain what is going on, but she keeps ignoring him until he finally says "I'm going away on business next week." She goes back downstairs without saying anything and starts working on dinner without acknowledging him again for 45 minutes until Mr. Smith decides to go.
