Haha I know where that one came from! It's from a seriously old issue of Reader's Digest. Haha.

--------------------------

A man was walking down a walkway with his wife on the way to their house back from dinner and minding his own business, when a car went haywire on the road next to the couple and crashed into the man. He was sent into a coma for two days and when he woke up he saw his wife next to his hospital bed. Joyfully the wife took his hand. With tears in his voice the man started to speak.

'When I was struggling in university, trying hard to not get expelled from the school because of my mediocre grades, you were always there by my side, encouraging me to go on trying.'

She squeezed his hands as he continued, 'When I went for all the major job interviews and failed to clinch any of them, you were always there by my side, cutting out the job ads for me to apply..'

A small smile appeared on the woman's face as she fought to keep from crying. The man went on, 'When I finally started work at a small company, I was given an important project to complete. I blew it because of a small mistake, and ended up losing my job after less than a year, but still you have been there beside me..'

His wife was in tears.

'After being jobless for a long time, I finally managed to land myself another job, but I never seem to be promoted or recognized in any way. Still, you have been by my side, all these years.'

She flung herself onto him, sobbing with tears of deep emotion. The man continued in a thick voice, 'Now, I meet with a road accident and when I wake, the first thing I see is you sitting beside me. There is something I'd like to say to you..'

His wife looked into his eyes, waiting for the words to come out of her husband's mouth, her mouth clamped tight to prevent from crying out loud. Finally, the man cleared his throat and said,


'I think you bring me bad luck lah.'
