One Day

Why are fathers such idiots? Why is my father the worst idiot of them all? He just needs to understand that I am going to do what I want, when I want to do it. He just doesn't seem to get it. That last thing he said to me as I ran out of the house was, "Fine! Go dishonor your family. Don't you get that's why no one in this family loves you?" See, idiot. Everyone in the family loves me, except him that is. From now on, I don't care what he says or thinks. Not that I really cared much before.

I won't take this anymore

Tonight I plan to meet a pretty young lady. We're going to have the time of our lives... in his bed. That'll rattle his chains. Show him how much I really don't care about him or his thoughts. I love it when the marvelous plans just pop into my head. Tonight will be a very good night.

One Day

I love drinking, obviously. This is my 5th mug of ale. What would my father think of that? Probably that I was just a disgraceful drunk, who brought dishonor of the family. He is always repeating his self. Idiot.

I'll be old enough

I wonder what Father was like when he was my age. I mean, could he really have been anything like me? Could I grow up to be just like him?!? Oh, God, I need more ale. I will always have a sense of fun, my father has and will always be a snob with no sense of fun. Period. No changing that.

To do what I want to

I should've stolen his money. That would have been great. Seducing a lass in his bed and spending all his silver on the lass and the ale. Oh I can just imagine what his face would look like. Oh well, seducing the woman will be as far as I can get tonight. One day though, I will steal is silver. That is, if he doesn't kick me out tonight.

I won't have to runaway

Now, it is time to find a woman. One that I don't have to pay would be best. Of course if I find one I don't have to pay the may fall in love and want commitment and such. No, that won't work. There is a blonde in the corner. She looks lovely and so elegantly dressed. Hell, she's going to need some money, but there is something about her. She is calling to me. She is the one.

And you won't be there

She is so beautiful. I need to know her name. I need to finish this last bit of ale. Then I'm going to talk to her. Then we are going to ruin my father together, even if she doesn't know it yet, she is mine for the night. Crap, she's leaving.

To say I'm not allowed to

Man, that last swallow of ale did not go down right. This woman better be as perfect as she seems to be. Now, where is sh... in the alley? "So I'd ask myself what's a lady of your station doing alone in an alley with the reputation that this one has?"

"Maybe she's lonely."

One day
