My Dearest Husband

Translated…

My dearest husband, we’d been married almost thirty years now, and lately, there are, some things I’d wanted to tell you especially.

From before, I’d only thought, that there are the schedules of the moon, it’d changed with the days, and a little while back, I’d shockingly discovered, that your weird behaviors also followed a pattern of sorts, whenever the time comes, you’d forgotten naturally, to turn off the faucet, flip of the light switches, lock the doors. And these three things would happen, in any order, but will come up, one by one, until the cycle’s completed……all of these had, created huge troubles for me.

But, you’d only felt awful about not turning off the resources, being a nickeling and diming kind of a person, you’d never felt that there’s anything wrong with, forgetting to lock up the doors, or forgetting to close the doors. From before, I couldn’t state it clearly, and now, after I’d gotten my thoughts together, I want to tell you three important points.

First, we live, right NEXT to the pass way, there are people, passing by our front doors every single day, if you’d forgotten to shut the doors, it’d not only be convenient to outsiders, it would be extremely convenient to our daughter (the cat we owned). And, a lot of times, as you’d just walked out, our daughter would, sneak out behind you; and if the little one wandered off far, and forgot how to get back home, you’d be among the ones who felt the most heartaches I’m sure.

Secondly, although there are, NO treasures, hiding in our household, no diamonds, nor emeralds, OR anything rare or expensive for that matter, but, there are also, other kinds of regular household expenses we need to keep, and there are, so many foreign wines, teas, that our son had brought home from abroad, especially for you, and, naturally, those who are mindful, will want to take them away, losing these, not only would you have done wrong by your son, you’d also feel, that it was, too bad.

In the end, although your wife had passed the age of needing to look beautiful, but I still got it, and, any time I’d walked down the streets, there would be, men, looking my way, and, if those bees, mosquitoes made their ways into our homes, I’m sure, you would feel angered by that too.

So, my dearest, we both need, to watch out and be more careful! Do pay a little MORE attention to what’s going on, did you turn off the light switches, the faucets, did you shut the door and lock it too, and, I will be there, to help you sort through why this cycle is happening, and try to remind you, ahead of times. Let’s start, working together, to lose that scatterbrainedness, okay?

So, this would be, the PLEAS of a wife, and from this, we can tell, that it’d happened, very many times, to the point, that it’d become, troubling to the woman this man is living with, and, that should raise an alarm too, as forgetfulness might be, an early indicator of dementia…
