Yesterday, I saw an elderly couple having their tea break in mcdonalds. They are around the age of 70+ I guess. They were having a large fries and a cup of lipton tea. It was very unusual of such scene because most elderly usually don't eat fast food right? So as I was queuing to get my ice lemon tea, I observed them eating.
Amazingly, the uncle was tearing off the ends of each fench fry for his wife and himself. I guess the ends are too hard for them to bite, thats why. Out of a sudden, I felt so touched by them. Most couples are not that lovely already at the at of 40+ but they had make an exception. At that moment, I was wondering will that happen to me too. haha. As I went back to my seat, I shared this with Chu Ting and Qiu Ling who were waiting for me and they were amazed too.
After the elderly couple finished their food, we followed them because I wanted to take a photo of them. The uncle was holding the auntie's hand. Oh so lovely right! The uncle was actually hunched back and carring a very big bag on his back, and the auntie offer to carry it for him. oh... I was really touched. Now then I know there are people like them in Singapore.
Some people might be discouraged by those cases of divorce but you will never know that one day your marriage will be like the elderly couple. At least for me, I am confident of it. :)
