The green eyed monster

This thing called envy, eh. Hmm. It doesn’t always announce itself. It doesn’t wear a neon sign that says “Jealous person approaching!” Nor does it put on a yellow face cap with bright red prints that say, ‘avoid me, I am jealous’ On the contrary, most times, it smiles sweetly,

Yesterday, I had a funny experience. It was avoidable. But, it happened, anyway. I watched a reel I shouldn’t have. The disclaimer was there. The author let us know it was about domestic violence of some sort. But, I got curious. How bad can it even be? I expected to
