They went through a messy divorce. They yelled and shouted until their voices were hoarse. They wanted to slap each other, of course.

The judge told them to shut up, but they kept yelling until sun up.

At the end of the day, they went to a bar, they drank themselves silly. They decided to have a three way with their new friend Billy.

They woke up the next day, Billy was still there. They said goodbye, then noticed something sticky in their hair.

“Billy liked us a lot! I’m no longer angry and sorry we fought. It’s his guidance we have sought,” he said.

“As long as Billy comes by once a week, we can rethink this divorce, this way life isn’t bleak and without remorse,” she said.

They shook hands and agreed, Billy was their savior because they drank wine and mead.
