Apparently they are to lodge a divorce. Lawyer was very puzzled, after having a talk with them, he got their story ....
This couple had been quarreling all their 40 over yrs of marriage none ever seem to go right. They hang because of their children, afraid that it might affect their upbringing. Now all their children already grown up, have their own family, there is nothing else the old couple have to worry about all the wild is to lead their own lives without all these years of dissatisfaction from their marriage, so both agree on a divorce ....
Lawyer had a hard time trying to get the papers done, because he felt that after 40 yrs of marriage at the age of 70, he could not understand why the old couple would still wants a divorce ..
While they were signing the papers, the woman told the man ..
"I really love u, but I really can not go on anymore, I'm sorry .."
"Its o.k., I understand .." said the man. Looking at this, the lawyer suggested a dinner together, only 3 of them, wife thought why not, since they still are going to be friends...
At the dinner table, there was a silence awkardness.
The first dish was roasted chicken, immediately the old man took the drumstick for the old lady... "Give her your favorite ..."
Looking at this, the lawyer thought maybe threes still a chance, but his wife was angry when she answers... "It's always the problem you always think so highly of yourself, never thought about how I feel, you do not know that I hate drumsticks?"
Little did she know that over the years, man has tried every way to please her, little did she know that drumsticks was the man's favorite. Little did he know that she never thought he understood her, little did he know that she hates drumsticks though all he wants is the best for her.
That night, both of them could not sleep, flip, rotate, flip, rotate ... after hours, could the old man did not take it anymore, he knows he still loves her and he can not continue life without her he wants her back, he will tell her that he is sorry, he would tell her: "I love you" ...
He picks up the phone, starts dialing her number.... ringing never stops... he never stop calling.... On the other hand, she was sorry she could not understand how come after all these years, he still does not understand her, she loves him very much, but she just can not take it anymore .... Phone ringing, she refuses to answer, knowing that it’s him ... "What the point of talking now that it’s over. ... I have asked for it and now I will keep it this way if I do not want to lose face .." she thought ... still ringing ... she has decided to pull out the cord ... Little did she remember that he has heart problems ...
The next day, she got the news that he had passed away ... She crashed to her apartment, saw his body lying on the couch still holding on the phone ... he had a heart attack when he was still trying to get through her phone line ....
So scared that she could be ... she'll have to clear his belongings .. . When she was looking through drawers, she saw this insurance, dated from the day they were married, with the beneficiary being her ... And together in those file, there was this note ...
"To my girlfriend at the time you read this, I am sure I no longer around, I bought this policy for you, although the amount is only $ 100k, I hope it will be able to help me pursue my promise I made when we got married, I could not be around anymore, I wish that this sum of money to continue taking care of you, just the way I would if I could have live longer. I would want you to know Iwill 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 how to build a life together .. Learn to love each other. For who they are .. Not what they is. .. "
