The woman tsked loudly. “No, the darn fool did it hisself.” Grabbing the man’s left hand by the wrist, she pulled it into view. A blood soaked paper towel covered his palm.
She yanked it off, revealing a deep gash that promptly sprouted fresh blood.
The man grimaced. “Dammit, woman! Look it, you got it bleedin’ again. Now I gotta start over with the paper towels.”

Poochie nodded vigorously. “Dat’s for sure.
