A woman awakes during the night to find that her husband was 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 cup of coffee in front of him. He appears to be
in deep thought, just staring at the wall. She watches as he wiped a tear
from his eye and takes a sip of his coffee. "What's the matter, dear?", she
whisper's as she steps into the room, "Why are you down here at this time of
night?".
The husband looks up from his coffee,"Do you
remember 20 years ago when we were dating, and you were only 16?" he asks
solemnly. "Yes I do" she replies. The husband paused, the words were
notcoming easily. "Do you remember when your father caught us in the back
seat of my car making love?" "Yes, I remember" said the wife, lowering
herself into 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'll send you to jail 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".
