Old Aged Couple

Many years down memory lane, situations made it that two fellows met. A fter their meeting, more chemical reactions pushed them to marry and live together as husband and wife.

Today, these two fellows are our « Mommy » and « Daddy »

Mommy is a retired civil servant while daddy is a private sector retired worker. Despite all hazards, the many children they gave birth to have now become adults of their own. The girl children have made a very fast run to the extent that this time around, mommy and daddy have now become great-grand momom and great-grand dad.

On a social and personal point, from time to time, mommy, in-order to keep her marriage alive, has to fight back against other single women and widows who want to snatch her old and handsome husband. Whenever he goes to the bank to receive his monthly retirement benefits, mommy is on the alert. She knows there are young girls out there who have specialised themselves in the business of seducing old men when they come for their pension.

This past february 14 2014, it came to daddy’s mind that he should at last make his wife the honour and give her a befitting church wedding. This information was communicated to their children who together decided to take things into their own hands. News went like wild fire. Children from far and near have come together. Preparations are hitting up hard.

To our greatest surprise, we have come to realise that these two fellows still play the hanky-panky game as if they were still youngsters fresh from the farm.

That not withstanding, we have also discovered who are the jealous uncles and aunts, friends and other community relations. But, we will not allow them topedo our parent’s hapiness. Knowing that mommy considers this as the reception of one of her Holy sacraments, and more important again, the summit of her lifetime’s achievements.
