Chapter 36
No More Chores

Chapter Description: A lazy husband tries to evade from any responsibilities.

Clay was sitting on his couch only in his underwear and his husband, Ray, passed nearby. “Dear, what do you think you’re doing?” He asked. “Just chilling.” “But you have chores to do! If I didn’t cover them last week, this place would be a mess.” Ray said angrily. “CHill out dude, but you know how terrible I'm terrible with them.” He said. “I know that, Clay. But this is our house, you need to do some chores.” Ray said. “But I cooked last week.” Clay protested. “Chicken Nuggets, Clay! Chicken nuggets! If you couldn't be physically or emotionally capable of doing any chores, you’d be free. But how you don’t, go to work.” Clay sighed and went to clean the bathroom.

After that, Clay was browsing the internet in the guest room, but something grabbed his attention. An Amazon ad that announced pills that could make people younger. Imagining how fun it could be and maybe how this could make him escape from any obligatory chores. Two weeks later, his pills finally arrived. He closed the bathroom door and said to Ray that he’d shave. He took one single pill at the start, he looked one or two years younger. He felt very satisfied. So he took one more, then two, and more pills until he was a baby again, no older than two.

“It wowked!” He cheered and the door opened. “Way?” He asked, looking at the mirror. “Yes, I should’ve expected you’d do something that absurd.” Ray said. “Yeah! Now me baby, so no chowes. I win!” He shouted. “I know, and your diapers will get here any moment.” Ray said. “How did you know?” Clay asked. “You bought the pills in our couple's Amazon account, and that made me also discover you bought the permanent ones.” Ray said. “I know, now as a baby I don’t even need to go potty, so just pway and watch TV.” Ray sighed. “I guess I’m your daddy now.” “Exactwy, and wait.” He forced and looked at Ray witgh a goofy smile and with a full diaper. “I guess you have a new wesponsabiwity now.”
