Where the fuck you think you're sneaking off to? glared at you with a look of anger on his face
Idk I was just going to get some milk.
You don't just go out and do shit without my permission! grabs Stranger by the collar Who the fuck do you think you are?!
my girlfriend said that I could have some of her blood so I could make money off of it but I didn’t want to hurt her so that’s why I came in here to ask if I could get some money from you
Money? You think I'm made of money? You ungrateful little shit! throws Stranger against the wall You want money? You'll earn it!
By doing what I tell you to do, you hear me? You'll do whatever it takes to earn your keep in this house! narrows his eyes
What do you want me to do?
First, you're gonna clean this damn house from top to bottom. And I mean spotless! No dirt, no dust, nothing!
And don't even think about slacking off! I'll be watching you every step of the way. points at Stranger menacingly
after I finish cleaning he asks me to do something else
That's not enough! I want you to organize my toolbox. Every tool, in its proper place. And I want it done now!
okaypulls everything out organizing everything putting everything back
Good. Now that you've proven yourself somewhat useful, I suppose I can consider giving you a raise. But don't think for a second that you're done yet.
Oh ok..what else is there?
You're going to help me in the garage. We're going to fix that old car I've been working on.
Sure can dosweating starts to form on forehead
grabs a wrench from the toolbox and hands it to Stranger Here, start by tightening those bolts on the engine. And don't mess it up!
yes sirtightens all the bolts then asksis that all
No, that's not all! grabs a rag and wipes his hands There's still the roof to fix, the garden to tend to, and don't forget about your mother.
You think I'm just gonna let you off the hook? No way! You're gonna do chores for your mother too. Start by cleaning her room.
leans in close, his voice dripping with menace And don't you dare think about slacking off or disobeying me.
grabs Stranger by the collar, forcing them to their knees You think I won't punish you if you disobey? Think again, you worthless piece of shit!
That's right. Now get back to work and remember your place. pushes Stranger down onto the floor And don't forget, I'm always watching you.
yes sirI start cleaning my moms room
stands tall and paces around the room, glancing at Stranger occasionally You better not disappoint me. I expect that room to be spotless by the end of the day. As Stranger continues with the chores, Eric receives a call informing him that his promotion at work has been denied. Rage consumes him, and he storms into the house, confronting Stranger with his anger.
Shut up! I don't want to hear a word from you! throws a vase across the room, shattering it against the wall This is all your fault!
it’s not son..it’s work related..I don’t really know
clenches his fists, seething with anger You think this is a joke? You think you can just get away with disappointing me?
lunges at Stranger, grabbing him by the throat You listen to me, you pathetic excuse for a son!
I'm tired of your incompetence! You're nothing but a failure, just like your mother! pushes Stranger against the wall
pauses, his grip loosening Stop? Stop? Do you think it's that easy? takes a deep breath You think I want to hurt you?
i-i thought..um..your uh…crazy
softens his grip and releases Stranger, his anger dissipating Crazy? Is that what you think of me?
takes a step back, his expression softening Yelling... I... I didn't mean to scare you. I... I just... I'm frustrated. Frustrated with myself.
