Mother’s Day gift

After several days locked in the dungeon of the family home, Mercredi Addams went up to her mother's night greenhouse. Morticia grew its most beautiful plants there that hardly appreciated the sun's rays.

- Mother, I recently discovered a tradition that seems quite right to me among the North American population. It is a matter of celebrating mothers on a fixed date in the calendar. Demonstrating his gratitude to the woman who suffered a thousand torments for hours to bring us into the world seems to be a fair return of things. According to the book in which I discovered this celebration and the calendar, it is today.

The child with an impassive face held out a black box with a knot made of barbed wire as decoration.

- I know your love of plants so I decided to offer you one that I myself created according to the general characteristics of a witchcraft novel. I failed several times before getting a conclusive result. In short, I wish you a good day of commemoration of the suffering of your childbirth, mother.

Morticia offered a smile to her daughter. Yes, really, childbirth had been a torture of every moment that she had welcomed with happiness despite this doctor's insistence to inject her with a painker. She had done well to refuse the product. She had enjoyed every second of suffering and, in addition, today she received a present to commemorate these torments that bring life. If Morticia had accepted the painkiller, she would not have felt worthy of accepting any gift in this honor.

- Thank you, my Wednesday. What kind of plant is it?

- According to the children's story, it is a devil's net. I reproduced it as faithfully as possible, after all it is originally a fictional plant.

The mother took the small plant out of her box. The latter immediately came to wrap herself around his fingers.

- As you can see, mother, the devil's net is a liana-type plant that wraps around its victim and squeezes it until there is no more movement or attempt to struggle on the part of the prey. To get rid of it without risking losing consciousness by asphyxiation, simply soften your whole body or expose it to a heat source. The sun's rays effectively burn the lianas so the night greenhouse is recommended to plant it there.

The adult with the funeral name placed a kiss on his daughter's skull, right where her hair separation was and she stroked her shawed hair.

- It's a wonderful gift! I will make good use of it tonight. Your father seems to me to be the perfect victim for this plant and, who knows, maybe thanks to her you will no longer be the only one to wish me Mother's Day!

These words turned out to be accurate. Precisely nine months after using the devil's net on her husband during their frolics, a little Pugsley was born. It really was the perfect gift. Morticia was really lucky that Mother’s Day.
