I went on an important trip for three days, and immediately after my arrival, I called to check on my wife and son but unfortunately she did not answer my calls, and this went on for all the three days. I was so much worried, I thought I would go insane. I contacted my brother and sister to check on their conditions, they told me they were fine. I did not believe them, and I called my wife’s mother, and she told me the same, I asked her to tell my wife to call me. But I waited for so long, and no one called. The three days passed like three months. I wondered why she was not answering my calls, and at times the devil whispered terrible things to me. I returned to my country, and as soon as my feet touched the ground, I rushed home. Because of the intensity of my fear I knocked the door, and rang the bell at the same time, until my wife opened the door. To my surprise, she was fine and very elegant, and she welcomed me with all her heart and soul. Behind her was my child, his eyes dancing with joy, he ran to hug me. I was confused, I did not know what was the reason as to why she was not answering my calls. Soon my anger replaced my surprise.
I asked my wife about the reason for her childish behaviour.
My wife replied calmly: “Did you contact your parents?”
I answered her, but I did not understand why she asked me that: “I do not know maybe, but I called your mother to ask about you.”
She said: “What you felt in these days which you did not hear from us, is the same feeling your parents feel when you forget to call them for so many days. You do not call them, unless they take the initiative to call you. They too get worried of you when you do not call them for a long time. I tried so much to alert you on this issue, but you are ignoring it. I did not find a better way than this to make you understand my point”.
I bend my head downward because what she said touched my heart.
She gave me my car keys and whispered in my ear: “Your paradise is waiting for you.”
I went to my first love, “my parents” after my wise wife taught me a lesson I will not forget for a lifetime.
I am grateful to her that she made me come back to my senses, before it was too late, and then I will come to regret it. #Extracted from Whatsapp
