story.......... Have a pleasant day ahead.
*********************************************************************************************************
One fine day,an old couple around the age of 70, walks into a
lawyer's
office. Apparently, they are there to file a divorce. Lawyer was
very
puzzled, after having a chat with them, he got their
story....
This couple had been quarreling all their 40 over yrs of marriage,
nothing
ever seems to go right.They hang on coz of their children, afraid
that it
might affect their up-bringing. Now, all their children have
already grown
up, have their own family, there's nothing else the old couple have
to
worry about, all they wanted is to lead their own life free from
all these
years of unhappiness from their marriage, so both agree on a
divorce.
Lawyer was having a hard time tryin to get the papers done, because
he
felt that after 40 years of marriage at the age of 70, he
couldn't
understand why the old couple would still wants a divorce...while
they
were signin the papers, the wife told the husband.."I really love
u, but i
really can't carry on anymore,i'm sorry.." "its o.k, i
understand.." said
the husband. Lookin at this, the lawyer suggested a dinner
together, just
3 of them,wife thought, why not, since they r still gonna be
frends.
At the dining table, there was a silence of awkwardness. The first
dish
was roasted chicken, immediately, the old man took the drumstick
for the
old lady , "take this, its your favourite."
Lookin at this, the lawyer thought maybe theres still a chance, but
the
wife was frowning when she answer." This is always the problem, u
always
think so highly of yourself, never thought about how i feel, don't
u know
that i hate drumsticks?"
Little did she know that, over the years, the husband have been
trying all
ways to please her, little did she know that drumsticks was the
husband's
favourite.
Little did he know that she never thought he understand her at all,
little
did he know that she hates drummsticks even though all he wants is
the
best for her.
That nite, both of them couldn't sleep, toss and turn, toss
and
turn...after hours, the old man couldn't take it anymore, he knows
that he
still loves her, and he can't carry on life without her, he wants
her
back, he wants to tell her, he is sorry, he wanted to tell her "i
love
u".
He picks up the phone, started dialing her number....ringing
never
stops..he never stop dialing....
On the other side,she was sad, she couldn't understand how come
after all
these years, he still doesn't understand her at all, she loves him
alot,
but she just can't take it anymore....phone's
ringing, she refuses to answer, knowing that its him..."what's the
point
of talking now that its over...i have ask for it and now i wanna
keep it
this way, if not i will lose face.."she thought...still
ringing...she has
decided to pull out the cord...
Little did she remember, he has heart problems...
The next day, she received news that he had passed away...she
rushed down
to his apartment, saw his body, lying on the couch still holding on
to the
phone...he had a heart attack when he was still trying to get thru'
her
phone line....
As sad as she could be...she will have to clear his
belongings...when she
was lookin thru the drawers, she saw this insurance policy, dated
from the
day they got married, beneficiary of course is her...together in
that
file, theres this note... "to my dearest wife, by the time u r
reading
this, i'm sure i'm no longer around, i bought this policy for u,
thou the
amount is only $100k, i hope it will be able to help me continue
my
promise that i have made when we got married, i might not be
around
anymore, i want this amount of money to continue taking care of u,
just
like the way i will if i could have live longer..i want u to know i
will
always be around, by your side...i love u"
Tears flowed like river......
"When u love someone, let them know... u never know what will
happen the
next min....
learn to build a life together...learn to love each other..........
for
who they are..not what they are..."
