He and She

She says life would be a tangled mess without him. He says life wouldn't be as adventurous without her..

• She says, "I want to grow my own produce. Let's plant a garden." He consents only to find himself doing the researching, the purchasing while she is away in the makeup aisle. A few hours later, she is tired of having to dig and plant the tiny seeds. She gives up and goes in. He collects the remaining seeds, plants them, and goes back inside to cheer her up. Days later, she's forgotten about the seeds as they take weeks to show themselves. Weeks later, she sees green specks! She then announces gardening was the best idea and informs him they'll never have to buy produce again. She soon forgets and neglects. Months later, he quietly discards her dead garden before she'll notice. 

• She says, "I want to do all my baking. Let's go shopping." He consents only to find her dissolve in tears because none of the baking goodies made it through. She's exhausted so along she goes to rest. He patiently wipes, cleans, organizes, and then bakes a batch of baking goodies with the remaining ingredients.

• She says, "Let's decorate our house!" He consents and gives her his credit card only to find that the purchases she made didn't quite fit their needs. Wrong nails for the pictures, wrong size of battery for the clock, wrong size of candles for the candle holders. Frustrated, she gives up and reads. Hours later, she comes out to see that he has once again worked his magic.

She dreams schemes. She says her ideas come from inspiration, but truth be told, all she's been good at is starting the sparks that create wild fires. Good thing she found him. He's gifted when it comes to putting out her fires.

"What would your life be like without me?" she asks. 

"Boring. You make it adventurous. Exciting," says he. "How about you?" he asks.  

She thinks for a moment. Replies, "A huge mess. I'm glad we found each other," says she.
