Cynthia is feeling absolutely exhausted, having just finished an 18-hour shift at the hospital, she is dying to go home and fall into bed, without even jumping into the shower first to wash off the filth, the smell of blood, and illness from her body, she can deal with that later. Beside, she has a temporarily unemployed man-servant aka her husband to clean up after her while she works hard to bring home the bacon.

What are man-servants for, she smirks at the thought as she unlocks the front door.

“Hey honey,” her husband, Steve, says cheerfully as she walks past without noticing him wearing an apron that read, “Surprise, we adopted a cat,” in front of it, “I…”

Yawning, she walks past him toward the bedroom to do what she had wanted to do since she clocked out 15 minutes prior but the moment her body and the bed makes contact, she’s bounced back into a standing position, shrieking, “Steve!” Steve runs into the bedroom and sees his wife now wide awake pointing to the black and white creature on the bed, he points at the apron, “Surprise?”

Written for Six Sentence Story. The prompt is “Bed”.
