Rose, 75, decided to divorce Charles, her husband of over 50 years, feeling suffocated and unseen. Despite his confusion and heartbreak, Charles agreed. Their lawyer, Frank, suggested a final meal at their favorite restaurant. During the dinner, Charles ordered for Rose, attempting to be thoughtful, but it only fueled her resentment. She stormed out, leaving Charles and Frank behind.

Returning home, Charles found the house empty and struggled with his emotions. He wrote a heartfelt letter to Rose, expressing his love and sorrow. Meanwhile, Rose, ignoring Charles’ calls, stewed in her newfound freedom. Unbeknownst to her, Charles suffered a heart attack and was rushed to the hospital.

Frank informed Rose, who realized her enduring love for Charles. She hurried home to gather his belongings and found his letter. Reading it, she discovered his deep affection and understanding. He had written, “Dear Rose, I’ve loved you all these years and will love you till I leave this earth. I don’t know why you’ve closed your heart to me, but I wish you would open it again. I can’t imagine a world where we’re apart.”

Rose’s heart broke as she continued reading, “I’m sorry about the restaurant. I was trying to look out for you. I know you hate bright lights because they hurt your eyes, so I asked for them to be dimmed. I ordered salad because of your health. I’m sorry for taking such liberties and promise to do better if you return to me.”

Overwhelmed with regret, she rushed to the hospital. Reunited, Rose begged to nullify the divorce, now aware of Charles’ attentive care. They embraced, both vowing to cherish each other anew, grateful for their second chance. From then on, Rose resolved to reciprocate his thoughtfulness every day until her last breath.
