The Seven Deadly Sins: Sloth

... be put to bed. NOW.

"Mum, I'll be home as soon as I can. I'll get Peter to charter the jet back. I'm sorry for lying to you, I... I'm just sorry, okay? I thought if you knew Peter and I were sleeping together, you'd think I was moving on too fast. That you'd lose respect for me, that's all. When Dave moved out..."

"Before you're tempted to lie to me again, Jane, let me tell you that Dave and I had a good long chat today after I saw him in the park. We sat on a bench. He refused to come in for a coffee due to some restraining order or other. Know anything about that, Jane? Doesn't sound like the amicable split you described. My god, woman, the man is shattered. Care to depart from recent habit and tell me what really happened?"

"Um..."

"On second thoughts, I don't want to be here all day. Did David do anything to deserve being thrown out, never mind all the other stuff you did?"

"Um, not really. I think I just fell out of love with him. He was always at work or so tired that he just didn't have any time for me anymore."

"Well, we both know why he worked so hard, don't we, Jane? Then, I suppose this Peter guy came along with a flash car and offered to fly you to Thailand in a private jet no less. He must be loaded and swept you off your feet. Please tell me this isn't all about you upgrading to a better lifestyle."

"But, Mum, I'll... we'll never have to worry about money ever again. Peter has a huge house on the other side of town. I won't have to work, ...

... and he's already said that he'll pay for the kids to go to the best schools. I did it for them."

"Bullshit, Jane. In my day it was called gold-digging. Tell me, why did you have to ambush David like that? Having him served with no notice when he came back from a business trip."

"Peter's lawyers said it was best that way."

"I'll keep my opinions on that to myself for the moment, Jane. Why the restraining order?"

"Peter said that it would maximise my chance of getting primary custody if I stayed in the house. He refused to share the house with Dave, so the only way was to get an Apprehended Violence Order."

"And what grounds did you use to get one of those? I know for a fact they don't hand them out like candy."

"Um, well, I may have implied that Dave smacked the kids."

In the background, Jane heard her father snort in derision, making her realise her mother was using the speaker phone function.

Her mother's voice rose a couple of octaves in disapproval. "That's disgusting, Jane. I'm betting he never touched the kids like that, they were his reason to live."

"I know, I felt bad doing it, but it was Peter's idea. He's assured me it won't appear on Dave's record permanently. After the custody hearing, I'll let Dave see the kids whenever he wants, but right now, I can't risk the slightest chance of losing them. I need sole custody, not shared."

"I can't believe this. So, tell me, if this shithead, Peter, is so loaded, why cut your husband off without ...
