Part 1 | 2 |
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.
