My Grandma’s Old House

“We’ve been married eleven years! Since when do we have separate money?”

“Since you spent three days telling me how stupid I was for spending mine.”

“My inheritance, Declan.”

“I’m being realistic.”

“Realistic?” I laughed. “You bought a boat.”

“That’s different.”

“You’ve used it twice.”

“I like having it.”

“And the Mustang?”

“That’s different.”

“I’m restoring it.”

“For six years! Every weekend, every spare dollar. And I never once called it a dump.”

“That’s a hobby!”

“And mine is a house.”

“Your hobby is a hole you throw money into!”

“Yours has an engine. Same thing.”

“Your hobby is a hole you throw money into!”

He opened his mouth. Closed it.
