A woman awakes during the night to find that her
husband was not in their bed. She puts on her robe and
does downstairs to look for him.
She finds him sitting at the dinner table w/ a cup of
coffee in front of him. He appears deep in thought,
just staring at the wall. She watches as he wipes a
tear from his eyes and takes a sip of coffee.
What's the matter, dear? she whispers as she steps
into teh room, "why are you down here at this time of
night?"
The husband looks up, "do you remember 20 years ago
when we were dating, and you were only 18?" he asks
solemly. The wife is touched to tears thinking that
her husband is so caring and sensitive. "Yes, I do"
she replies.
The husband pauses. The words are not coming easily.
"Do you remember when your mother caught us behind the
couch making love?" "yes, i remember." says the wife,
lowering herself into a chair beside him.
The hsuband continues.. "Do you remember when she
shoved the shotgun in my face and said , "either you
marry my daughter, or i will send you to jail for 20
years?" "I remember that to." she replies softly.
He wipes another tear from his cheek and says...."I
would have gotten out today."
