The other day, a women of about 45 came through my line, (of course with a ton of groceries). All of a sudden her husband appears to start packing up their groceries. I assumed he had been shopping with her, but I soon found out this was not the case as the lady says, “Oh, my husband just came to help because he wants to make sure I don’t over do it after my recent surgery. What a sweetie.”
I didn’t think much of it, just a husband helping his wife, until I saw them playfully “bickering” at the end of my lane. I could tell they were in love and had been for quite some time. The lady turned to me as she swiped her credit card briskly through the machine and said, “If I had the chance, I would marry him again, and fall in love all over again.” I then thought, “That has got to be the cutest thing I have seen since I’ve worked here” until I heard her next words.
“I hope someday, you can get this lucky, Dana.”
That moment just gave me a lot of hope and excitement for the future. <3
