So there we were, standing in an incredibly long grocery line, when this rude guy intentionally bumped into my pregnant wife and our cart. I was furious and ready to confront him, but my wife had a brilliant plan. Spoiler alert: karma is about to strike!
As a child, I never quite understood the saying “what goes around comes around,” but as I grew older, I started to comprehend its true meaning. I used to believe that taking matters into my own hands was the best way to handle situations, but my wife, Karol, showed me a different perspective.
Let’s go back to the beginning. I met Karol when I was 26, still figuring out life. She became the highlight of my days, and with her, I learned to be more laid-back. She changed my outlook on life in the most incredible way.
Our relationship didn’t unfold quickly. We started off as friends and gradually became lovers. Somehow, Karol taught me that it was possible to have both. We took our time, cherishing each moment, until one day, after three years together, I knew it was time to propose.
We had a simple and intimate wedding ceremony, surrounded by our loved ones. Life was amazing, or so I thought. And then, we discovered that Karol was pregnant. The protective instinct within me kicked into high gear. I felt like I needed to be on high alert, ready to shield my growing family from any harm.
My mother once chuckled at my overly protective behavior. Karol’s baby bump wasn’t even visible yet, but I was already fussing over her and insisting she rest. My mom simply reminded me, “Whatever happens, happens.” It was a gentle way of saying that I couldn’t control everything, but it didn’t mean I couldn’t be prepared.
Months passed, and Karol’s belly grew bigger, our excitement increasing by the day. But one event at the grocery store threatened to shatter my peace. We found ourselves in an incredibly long line, and Karol was visibly uncomfortable, shifting her weight due to her aching feet. She was seven months pregnant, after all.
Out of nowhere, a rude and imposing man barged through, intentionally ramming into our cart and my pregnant wife. I could feel the anger rising within me, fueled by the months of mindfulness I had practiced. However, just as I was about to confront him, Karol gripped my arm and whispered, “Don’t waste your energy on him. Watch what happens next.”
Intrigued, I followed her lead and stood still. We observed as Mr. Rude Guy smugly paid for his items and proudly made his way towards the exit. But to our amusement, an alarm suddenly blared, causing two security guards to appear out of nowhere and apprehend him.
Karol burst into laughter, and I couldn’t help but join in. I turned to her, a mix of confusion and amusement on my face, and asked how she knew this would happen. With an innocent expression, she explained, “While he was busy causing a scene, I discreetly slipped a little ‘goodbye’ gift into his pocket – a security tag.” We both laughed at the irony of the situation.
In that moment, I realized that karma alone could bring justice, but a little push can make life even more satisfying. I couldn’t help but feel grateful that I married such an incredible woman. My wife had not only taught me to trust in the universe’s ways but also showed me the power of a well-executed prank.
