DOWN ON BENDED KNEES

in #stach7 years ago


Arnold received a call from his parents asking to see him. He had a feeling that whatever they had to say had to do with the girl he had introduced to them as his fiancee the previous day.
On getting to his parent's house, he was met with their unwavering disapproval of his choice of an ideal partner. They explained that within the short period they spent together, they could already tell that their relationship would not last. Arnold couldn't see past her physical appearance and therefore chose to go against his parents.
Within the first few months of their marriage everything was going on fine but it was only temporary. Arnold soon started noticing some behaviors that were not evident in her before. She no longer listened to him, hence they never agreed on anything. She became demanding, nothing was ever good enough but she managed to look past all this till he was fired from his job.
He had just gotten home from an interview that day when he was greeted with divorce papers. He begged her not to leave, even went on his knees but that didn't stop her from slamming the door in his face.
