A Little Story about Apology
A few years ago, my wife made her apologies to me for breaking her words, which surprised me a lot because she rarely apologizes to others.
What happened was, at that time my wife and I visited an old man who had been living in my neighborhood all his life. The poor old gentleman was leading a miserable life, so I offered him a small amount of money. However, I didn't want my mother to know this because she was always a backseat driver. As a result, I asked my wife to keep a lid on this and she made a promise that she would not tell anyone else, including my mother.
However, unfortunately, on the next day my mother got to know this and accused me of being so generous. I realized right away that my wife must have told her something, and my wife said that she was pretty sorry about all the trouble she'd caused. Again, she promised that she would not do stupid things like that anymore.
Of course, I had no choice but to accept her apologies. Having said that, I was feeling still a little bit disappointed because I always thought that she was supposed to be a person who I could share secrets with.
This is my little story I’d like to relate here.
