Brittney Drake fished her keys out of her purse. She took a deep breath, preparing herself in case her lazy husband had done nothing all day.
Brittany understood government lab jobs were hard to come by but it had been almost 4 months by now.
Brittney Drake was 36 years old, five food six inches and 115lbs. She wore her dark red hair parted in the center and held back from her face in a messy bun. She wore a button up shirt, a blazer, slacks, and a pair of flats that were killing her feet.
Brittney had taken the office job until her husband Arthur found a new job.
"Hi honey, any luck with on the job search?" She asked out loud as she entered the apartment.
No answer. "Where was he?" She grumbled to herself.
In the den he was sitting on the couch with his headphones on and was playing the newest Duty Calls. He yelled calls to a Goose? or someone named Mouse. Fuck it she didn't care she had enough.
She stomped over and yanked the power cord out stopping his game.
"This? This is what you have been doing?" She yelled as Arthur turned to see her. Arthur looked at her confused. "just taking a break, job searches take a lot out of a guy," he said shrugging.
"I just can't anymore, do something useful and make dinner while I shower!" she said as she slammed the door.
Arthur stood up and sighed. She didn't understand. If you work for a secret government lab you can't put it on your resume.
A lot of place won't hire you if there is a five year gap in your job history.
Arthur tried to explain this to Brittney, but it just fell on deaf ears. She refused to understand. And Arthur was tired of trying to make her see.
His lab, the lab he used to work was making a special pill for the government.
