One fine day, an old couple around the age of 70
walks into a lawyer's office. Lawyer was very puzzled, after having a chat with
them, he got their story.... 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..

the husband.. 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.. Looking at this, the lawyer thought there might still
be a chance for the relationship, but the wife was
frowning when she answered.. 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"... (Read Related : I Love You Quotes) 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...
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..."
