When I arrived at my pregnant sister’s house, I never expected to find her husband treating her like a servant. But what I did next, with a watermelon and a crazy bet, changed everything.
What are you supposed to do when you visit your sister, who is nine months pregnant, and see her being treated like a maid?
This happened while I was traveling for work and stayed at my sister’s place.
The moment I stepped through the door, I knew something was wrong. Lily, my dear sister, was waddling around with a belly that looked ready to burst.
Her face was pale, and dark circles hung under her eyes. I could practically see the exhaustion radiating off her.
Meanwhile, her husband, let’s call him “Mark,” was sprawled on the couch, controller in hand, and eyes glued to the TV screen.
That’s when I realized the root of my sister’s exhaustion. Mark’s royal treatment was clear.
