She Can't Keep Up (A Comic Strip)

[A comic strip in four panels]

First panel: I just can't manage fixing the food anymore. I'm worn out — that's plain to see.

Second panel: And like all the girls her age, she is working with all her strength. It has to be grilled! Give me fried mouloukhiyeh!

Suzanne's condition has changed a great deal.

Fourth panel: Take this milk, Suzanne — it increases your energy, and you'll succeed in your plans.

A week later

Third panel: Tired? No, it isn't tiredness that's got her. I'll clear the table and then set it for you again.

She's thinking to herself: That's right — there's nothing I can't do, and I'm going to open a Milo.
