Sad True Love Story
Life Together
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 throughout their 40
plus years of marriage. Nothing ever seems to go right.
They hang on because 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 agreed on a divorce....
Lawyer was having a hard time trying 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 want a divorce..
While they were signing the papers, the wife told
the husband..
"I really love you, but i really can't carry
on anymore, I'm sorry.."
"It's o.k., I understand.." said the husband.
Looking at this, the lawyer suggested a dinner together
with just the three of them. The wife thought, "Why
not? since they are still gonna be friends.."
At the dining table, there was a awkard silence.
The first dish was roasted chicken. Immediately, the
old man took the drumstick for the old lady..
"Take this, it's your favourite.."
Looking at this, the lawyer thought there might still
be a chance for the relationship, but the wife was
frowning when she answered..
"This is always the problem. You always think
so highly of yourself and never thought about how
I feel. Don't you 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 drumsticks
even though all he wants is the best for her.
That night, both of them couldn't sleep. Throught
the night, they toss and turn repeatedly... 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 you"...
He picks up the phone, started dialing her number....
The ringing never stops.. He never stopped 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 a lot,
but she just can't take it anymore.... The phone rang
but she refuses to answer knowing that it's him...
"What's the point of talking now that it's over...
I have asked for it and now I wanna keep it this way.
If not I will lose face.." She thought. With
the phone still ringing, she decided to pull out the
phone cord...
Little did she remember, he had heart problems...
The next day, she received news that he had passed
away... She rushed down to his apartment and saw his
body lying on the couch still holding on to the phone.
He had a heart attack when he was trying to get through
to her phone line....
As sad as she was, she have to clear his belongings.
When she was looking through the drawers, she saw
this insurance policy dated from the day they got
married with the beneficiary being her. And together
in those files, there was this note.
"To my dearest wife,
By the time you're reading this, I'm sure I'm no
longer around. I bought this policy for you. Though
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 but
I want this amount of money to continue taking care
of you just like the way I will if I could have live
longer. I want you to know I will always be around
by your side. I love you. "
Tears flowed like river......
"When you love someone, let them know... You
never know what will happen the next minute... Learn
to build a life together.. Learn to love each other...
For who they are.. Not what they are..."
