Go Figure!
While at the supermarket I was attempting to turn a corner at the end of the aisle however, it was blocked by an elderly couple. The man who appeared to be in his eighties was listening patiently as his wife was scolding him left and right about one thing or another. I excused myself as I walked around them heading to another aisle.
When at the checkout I noticed the couple at the register next to me. He pushed their cart out past the end of the register waiting for his wife to pay. She walked up to him leaned over and gave him a kiss on the cheek. As she took control of the cart from him, he places his arms through hers and they quietly shuffle off on their merry way.
