Anniversary
A woman awoke during the night to find that her husband was not in their
bed. She put on her robe and went downstairs to look for him.
She found him sitting at the kitchen table with a hot cup of coffee in
front of him. He appeared to be in deep thought..... just staring at the
wall.
She watched as he wiped a tear from his eye and took a sip of his coffee.
"What's the matter, dear?" she whispered as she stepped into the room. Why
are you down here at this time of night?"
The husband looked up from his coffee, "I am just remembering when we first
met 20 years ago and started dating. You were only 16. Do you remember back then?" he said solemnly.
The wife was touched to tears, thinking that her husband was so caring, so
sensitive. "Yes, I do," she replied.
The husband paused. The words were not coming easily. "Do you remember when your father caught us in the back seat of my car?"
"Yes, I remember," said the wife, lowering herself into a chair beside him.
The husband continued, "Do you remember when he shoved the shotgun in my
face and said, 'Either you marry my daughter, or I will have you sent to
jail for 20 years?"
"I remember that too," she replied softly.
He wiped another tear from his cheek and said.....
"I would have gotten out today."
