  Little did he know that she never thought he understand her at all, little did he know that she hates drumsticks even though all he wants is the best for her.

  That night, both of them couldn't sleep, toss and turn(辗转反侧), toss and turn. After hours, the old man couldn't take it anymore, he knows that he still loves her, and he can't carry on life without her, he wants her back, he wants to tell her, he is sorry, he wanted to tell her, “I love you.”

  On the other side, she was sad, she couldn't understand how come after all these years, he still doesn't understand her at all, she loves him a lot, but she just can't take it any- more. Phone's ringing, she refuses to answer knowing that it's him. “What's the point of talking now that it's over. I have asked for it and now. I want to keep it this way, if not I will lose face. ”She thought. Phone still ringing. She has decided to pull out the cord.

  Little did she remember, he had heart problems.

  The next day, she received news that he had passed away. She rushed down to his apartment, saw his body, lying on the couch still holding on to the phone. He had a heart attack when he was still trying to get thru her phone line.

  As sad as she could be. She will have to clear his belongings. When she was looking thru the drawers, she saw this insurance policy, dated from the day they got married, beneficiary(受益人) is her. Together in that file there's this note.

  “To my dearest wife, by the time you are reading this, I'm sure I'm no longer around, I bought this policy for you, though the amount is only $100k, I hope it will be able to help me continue my promise that I have made when we got married, I might not be around anymore, I want this amount of money to continue taking care of you, just like the way I will if I could have live longer. I want you to know I will always be around, by your side. I love you.”

  Tears flowed like river.
