Brier Maiden

After we returned from the school's Founder's Day, I hired a private detective to keep an eye on the meddler.
It was easy to get something on the meddler.
He wasn't faithful in his marriage.
He did love his wife, but he was also a thrill seeker.
I had pictures taken and sent to his wife.
How could he deserve to have a happy family?
I was so vicious.
I rented an apartment next door to his to listen to their quarrels.
The screaming of the children, the bickering of the couple, and the sound of dishes being thrown was music to my ears.
And I started playing the Hungarian Rhapsody next door.
The meddler punched the wall and shouted, "Stop playing the fucking piano!"
Everything became silent.
I enjoyed the moment.
Soon, they started quarrelling again.
I hummed to myself as I went downstairs and went back to the apartment I shared with Fredrick.
The moment I switched on the light, Fredrick put his arm around me from behind.
