Did I Marry The Right Person? (Part 2)
This interesting story, told by Leonard Merrick, is written in simple, beautiful English. I hope you would like it.
Two strangers meet in a café.
Outside, a hurdy-gurdy is playing an old-time popular song.
A tear trickles down the face of one of the two strangers.
"What's the trouble? Sad memories?"
"Yes."
"Do you mind telling me about it?"
"Not at all . . . Many years ago I met a beautiful young lady at this very same café. And on that occasion, we heard this very same song . . . I fell in love with the lady . . . And now, whenever I hear this song, my heart is oppressed with sorrow, and the tears come to my eyes."
"Poor fellow, so she jilted you."
"No, my friend, she married me."
