In "Why I Want a Wife‚" Brady offers hypothetical criteria for an ideal wife in a satirical commentary on how the work of wives is often taken for granted.

I Wish I Could I wish I could turn back the clock to vanish regrets of my wrong decisions from my heart and memories. Those regrets not only made me mentally weak but also depress me.
