Troubles of Couples-by Aphrodite
Hera steals Zeus's lightning bolt!
Zeus: WHAT?! WHO HAD THE NERVE TO COMMIT SUCH A SACRILIGEOUS ACT!
Apollo: Oh, only your lovely wife, Hera.
(Hera is glaring but looking satisfied at the same time)
Zeus: Ohhhh….I mean, my dear, why would you do such a thing to your faith…ah, lovely husband?
Hera: HAAH! It will teach you a lesson, oh lovely one. I'm not returning it until I receive your promise to be faithful-ETERNALLY.
Zeus: Uhhhh…but I am faithful, my dear! How do you think I could ever develop a passion for someone else other than YOU, my sweetest bride? Oh, you've just broken my heart! So deeply I am shocked to ponder over the…..
Hera: Don't give me that rubbish, Zeus.
Poseidon(goes crazy): Hahahahahahahahahahahah! THAT WAS THE FUNNIEST ACT I'VE EVER SEEN!
Zeus: Shut up, Poseidon! I'm being serious.
Athena: (sighs) I don't think you're convincing anybody here, Father.
Poseidon: Hah! Mistress Owly agrees with me on behalf of her wisdom-
Athena: That's not even a proper sentence, Poseidon. Besides, I am only pointing out a logical fact.
Poseidon: Either way, you-
Zeus: SILENCE, you fools! You're diverting us from the main matter! Hera, I want my lightning bolt back.
Hermes: How did you even steal it? Gods can't steal directly. I'll have to learn a few tips from you.
Zeus and Hera: THIS IS SERIOUS!
Hera: I stole it and it does not regard you people how. Besides, I did it to make Zeus GIVE ME VALUE!
Zeus: I'll give you value…..I mean, I do give you value! PLEASE give it back, Hera! The Thunder Wonder show is on tonight, and I can't watch it without the master bolt.
Hera: serves you right.
Zeus: Bwaaaaaaa! NOOOOO(SOBBING)! Please! It's my favorite show!
Poseidon(smirking): excellent article, Aphrodite!
