I thought I could resist him. At my age, a woman should know better. I had been there, done that and then some.

He was always there for me-through laughter and tears, through good times and bad. I only had to call and he would be at my side. He meant at lot to me-he had done a lot for me-but what he was asking for was just too much.

He said nothing-but his eyes said it all-How could you?
There was no way I was giving in. I determinedly ignored him and daintily nibbled at my Subway sandwich. Words were not required-the silence between us said it all-it was over-thats it-over! I could not agree to his request.

How dare he-how dare he?! Indignation built in me- I turned to him to give him a piece of my mind. I wish I hadn’t. His eyes,irresistible at the best of times, he gave me a soulful look that would have melted ice in the Arctic.

With a sigh, I gave in. 25 years of marriage and two grown up sons –one would have thought I knew better. But sadness hath no equal like Blizzard denied a Subway!!!!!!!!

With a dramatic sigh-I handed over my well earned Subway-and was rewarded with a tail that wagged all the way from here to Subway (read doggie) heaven!
