His behavioral patterns, and hers, were entirely predictable during election season; but their public cheer was incongruous with his true intentions. She knew, oh so well, that he’d renege on his promises, including those to her…
But he’d certainly give her the chop if she didn’t play her part.

I’m feeling a dysfunctional “power couple” story here. Really good job putting something together w so many rules in place. But I wonder if an exercise like this provokes an idea for a story or poem that you’d never thought of but for the rigid rules.
Of course it does❣️
A difficult part to play, where you know that eventually it will turn on you.
