A woman awakens during the night to find that her husband is not in their bed. She puts on her robe and goes downstairs to look for him. She finds him sitting at the kitchen table with a hot cup of coffee in front of him.
He appears to be in deep thought, just staring at the wall. She watches as he wipes a tear from his eye and takes a sip of his coffee.
"What's the matter, dear?" she whispers as she steps into the room, "Why are you down here at this time of night?"
The husband looks up from his coffee. "Do you remember 20 years ago when we were dating, and you were only 16?"
"Yes I do," she replies.
The husband paused. "Do you remember when your father caught us in the barn making love?"
"Yes, I remember," said the wife.
The husband continued. "Do you remember when he shoved the shotgun in my face and said, 'Either you marry my daughter, or you will spend the next 20 years in prison?'"
"I remember that, too," she replied softly.
He wiped another tear from his cheek and said, "I would have gotten out today."
