A wife’s shopping trip took an unexpected turn when she arrived home to find her husband in a compromising position with a young woman. Shock and anger welled up inside her, but before she could storm out, her husband’s words stopped her in her tracks.
“Let me explain,” he said, “I was driving home when I saw this young girl, shivering and hungry. I offered her a ride and brought her home to feed her. I gave her some of the leftover roast you hadn’t touched.”
As he continued, the wife’s anger turned to curiosity. “Her shoes were worn out, so I gave her a pair of yours that no longer fit. She was cold, so I offered her that new sweater you never wore because of the color.”
The husband’s explanation seemed reasonable, but the wife was still wary. “Her slacks were torn, so I gave her a pair of yours that were too small. And then, she asked if there was anything else you no longer needed…”
The wife’s eyes widened as she realized where this was going. “And that’s how we ended up here,” her husband concluded with a sheepish grin.
