Once upon a time, there was a husband who received an exciting opportunity to go fishing in China for a whole week with his boss. He saw this as a chance to impress his boss and secure a promotion. So, he decided to call his wife and ask for some help.
“Honey,” he began, “I’ve been given the incredible opportunity to go fishing in China with my boss. It’s a big deal and could really help my career.
Could you please do me a favor and pack enough clothes for a week? Also, set out my rod and fishing box. We’ll be leaving directly from the office, and I’ll swing by the house to pick up my things. Oh, and don’t forget to pack my new blue silk pajamas!”
The wife had a hunch that something fishy was going on with her husband’s story. However, being the caring and supportive wife she was, she listened attentively and followed his instructions.
After a long week, the husband finally returned home, looking a little tired but content. Immediately, the wife started asking about his fishing adventure. She wanted to know how the trip went, if he had caught any fish, and all the exciting details.
With a smile on his face, the husband replied, “Yes, I caught lots of Salmon, Bluegill, and even a few Swordfish. But, my dear, there’s one thing I can’t understand. Why didn’t you pack my blue silk pajamas?”
With a mischievous smile, the wife responded, “Oh, I did pack them. They’re in your fishing box!”
It goes to show that sometimes wives have a 7th sense that allows them to anticipate and play along with their husbands’ little secrets. This delightful story reminds us of the unique dynamics that make marriages special and the love and understanding that can exist between partners.
