The sun's hot rays nibbled lovingly at my face like an excited puppy. It’s warming glow shrinking the coldness within me. “Relax!” I urged my whirling mind, “let it go.” Her words refused to obey, banished for a second before charging back into my thoughts like that excited, untrained puppy refusing to ”Stay!” I watched the birds swooping and diving in the azure sky, but I did not take them in. I only saw her face, that face, as she said those words. The words tore through me, the puppy now snapping like a wolf. Those words, all I could hear, those words. "Stop leaving the ****** tea bags in the sink!"

Go Words
The sun's hot rays nibbled lovingly at my face like an excited puppy. It’s warming glow shrinking the coldness within me. “Relax!” I urged my whirling mind, “let it go.” Her words refused to obey, banished for a second before charging back into my thoughts like that excited, untrained puppy refusing to ”Stay!” I watched the birds swooping and diving in the azure sky, but I did not take them in. I only saw her face, that face, as she said those words. The words tore through me, the puppy now snapping like a wolf. Those words, all I could hear, those words. "Stop leaving the ****** tea bags in the sink!"
Surely can't be only me?
