An hour later, the last patron had straggled out of the bar leaving me to clean up. Eyra was sitting there nursing a tankard of ale when I shoved a broom at her.

“I’m a paying customer!” she said in outrage.

“If you sweep the floor and do a good job, I’ll let you help Gravelbeard clean up the kitchen.”

Her gaze went feral. “Done.” Eyra stood up and swept that floor like a surgeon during a twelve hour heart surgery.

“Noooo,” Gravelbeard cried from the kitchen. “I’ll do anything, Freya!”

“You insulted my mother,” I called back.

“Your mother was a beautiful and delicate lady who when she walked spread flowers and joy!”

“Too late, Gravelbeard.” I held my hand out for the broom and with the other shoved a key at Eyra. “Neither one of you leaves until the place is spotless. After that, make sure you lock the door behind you. I don’t want to know what happens next as long as it doesn’t happen here.”

Eyra waggled her eyebrows, shoved the broom at me, and took the key. “You got it, boss.”

“FREYA!! A CURSE UPON YOUR HOUSE. I HOPE YOUR CHILDREN HAVE THREE HEADS AND TENTACLES FOR HANDS!” came the strangled cry from the kitchen.

I chuckled all the way out the door and all the way to my house.
