Trine Blackdragon woke up with a terrible headache. In one sudden flash, yesterday’s talk with her husband appeared before her eyes.
‘I’ve just had enough’ said the Husband with anger. ‘All husbands know where their wives are working, and what are they doing there’ – he said.
‘Hun, we talked about this so many times, please calm down…’
‘I can’t calm down, we’re having this conversation for 6 months now – that you should allow me to see your work’.
‘I just can’t, it’s not as simple as you think, you need very sophisticated electronic equipment for it…’
‘You just don’t want me to see it’ said the Husband sadly. ‘I care about you, I’m afraid that something can happen to you’ he added.
Trine sighed. What was she supposed to say to that? So she agreed. Little Shaggy stayed with her grandma at home. And Trine went with her husband to work.
‘Guys, I need some cover from you’ said Trine.
‘Hun, what’s going on?’ asked Jezz.
‘My husband badly needs to see how I work. I tried to explain, you know, that it is simply not possible – but he is very stubborn and won’t listen.’
‘Arrrr, that won’t be easy to do hun’ said Jest.
‘I know’ – replied Trine sadly – ‘but I really have to do it’.
‘You will need access key, you know that, don’t you?’ – asked Jim.
‘Yes, I know that’
‘Ok’ – said Jest. ‘There is only one person who can do it… and this person is me’ – she added modestly.
After a long and stressful wait, they saw Jester with an access key in her hand. She was pale and her hair was a complete mess.
‘Jest, what happened?’ asked David.
‘Don’t even ask’ replied Jest gloomily. ‘I needed to make minions from my heroes’.
‘Oh, I’m so sorry hun’ said Trine with sympathy.
‘It’s OK, I knew it won’t be easy’. Jester sighed and started to shake remains of Olias off her jacket.
Trine gave the access key to her husband.
‘Remember, this is a very important item. When we’re finished here, I need it back’ she said very slowly and clearly.
‘Ok hun, don’t worry I won’t lose it’ – he replied.
‘We will go to a very nice place, you will like it’.
‘Oh, this looks so beautiful’ – the Husband was clearly impressed. ‘All those nice lovely, sandy beaches, these tropical palm trees’ – he was obviously up to it.
‘Yes, as you can see, there is nothing really special in my work. I’m just trying to find sick bugs, insects and plants – and then to give them some cure.’
‘Not everything can survive such treatment, but as you can see, now it’s very nice around here, isn’t it?’ – asked Trine, kicking the last remaining termite in its leg.
‘Ok, now we can head back home’ – said Trine happily.
As soon as she saw the Husband’s face, she knew that something is wrong… terribly wrong.
‘OMG, you didn’t lose the access key, did you?’ – she asked very calmly.
‘Hun… You know that I love you so much’ – started the Husband, sounding a bit unsure. And then he just started running across the fields.
‘RAAAAAAAAAAAMMMMMMIIIIIIIIIIIRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEE EEEEEZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ’ – heard the last termite, hiding under the tree.
