    A woman awakes during the night to find that her husband
    is not in bed. She puts on her robe and goes downstairs to
    look for him.

    She finds him sitting at the kitchen table with a hot cup of
    coffee in front of him..

    He appears to be in deep thought, just staring at the wall.

    She watches as he wipes a tear from his eye and takes a sip
    of his coffee.

    'What's the matter, dear?' she whispers as she steps in to
    the room, 'Why are you down here at this time of night?

    The husband looks up from his coffee, 'It's the 20Th
    Anniversary of the day we met'.

    She can't believe he has remembered and she starts to tear up.

    The husband continues, 'Do you remember 20 years ago
    when we started dating? I was 18 and you were only 16,'
    he says solemnly.


    Once again, the wife is touched, thinking that
    her husband is so caring and sensitive.

    'Yes, I do' she replies.

    The husband pauses. The words were not coming easily.
    'Do you remember when your father caught us in the back
    seat of my car?'

    'Yes, I remember' said the wife, lowering herself in to a
    chair beside him.

    The husband continued. 'Do you remember when he
    shoved the shotgun in my face and said, "Either you
    marry my daughter or I will send you to prison for 20 years?"

    'I remember that, too' she replied softly.

    He wiped another tear from his cheek and said
    'I would have gotten out today.'
