A woman awakes during the night to find that
her husband was not in their bed. She puts on her robe and downstairs to look
for him. She finds him sitting at the kitchen table with a cup of coffee in
front of him.
He appears deep in thought, just staring at the
wall. She watches as he wipes a tear from his eye and takes a sip of coffee.
'What's the matter, dear?' she whispers as she steps into the room, 'Why are you
down here at this time of night?'
Do you remember when I met you and you were only
16?' he asks solemnly.
The wife is touched to tears thinking that her
husband is so caring and sensitive. 'Yes, I do' she replies. The husband pauses.
The words are not coming easily. 'Do you remember when your father caught us in
the back seat of my car, making love?' 'Yes, I remember' says the wife, lowering
herself into a chair beside him.
The husband continues... 'Do you remember when he
shoved a shotgun in my face and said, 'Either you marry my daughter, or I will
send you to jail for
20 years?'' 'I remember that too' she replies softly.
He wipes another tear from his cheek and says...
I would have gotten out today. |
