Wait till your Father gets Home
Caption #571
Jean was fed up with her husband Ed. She was sick of him laying around watching music video's and spending countless hours on the phone to girlfriends talking about vacuous subjects like clothes. This has gone on long enough Jean thought. Ed needs to get off his backside and either knuckle down and find a job, or concentrate on getting better grades and graduating!
Ever since Ed changed from 40 something man with a job and a wife to a 15 year old girl life in their household had been turned upside down. Jean as a single mother now was forced to carry the household income alone when Ed was forced back to high school. Ed did nothing to help and was beginning to get on his wife's nerves. When she asked Ed to help with the jobs around the house he just smirked and refused. Jean never asked for an instant teenage daughter but for better or worse she now had one.
She thought Ed would have been more helpful and not like most teenage girls. Ed though seemed to revel in his new life, he spent so much time on his appearance and so litle time on helping out that Jean began to wonder if he even cared what happened. Ed was simply a unruly teenage girl with little regard for others.
Thats when Jean knew what she had to do.
Bill wasn't the love of Jean's life but she knew he'd long carried a flame for her. The wedding was small but elegant although Ed didn't find being a bridesmaid much fun, dancing with Bill's brother the bestman was yukky. Bad enough for Ed his wife had ditched him for another man but to have to live under the same roof as them was a killer! Listening to their lovemaking night after night got under Ed's skin.
Bill's mild ribbing of his wife's former husband caused Ed to lose it and spit out a vile burst of abuse. Ed's anger made him red in the face and he huffed and puffed with defiant fury. Bill was quiet for a moment.
As Ed felt Bill's hand repeatedly slap his rump hard he began to feel red somewhere else all together! The ensuing weeks of fatherly dicipline brought Edwina into line and she began to feel remorse for her behaviour.
After that Jean no longer found a need to raise her voice or warn her daughter about her behaviour. The question "do you want to deal with your father?" was enough to bring Edwina into line!
