These shoes are meant for shop windows
So he bought new running shoes.
Out of shape he calls himself. Perfect is all I see when I look at him. But I get what he means. I'm the kind of wife who always understands- especially when I don't want to. He'll disagree on this. And I will agree with him.
See! No see? Look again.
He tells me, I'm gonna go running. Far and far and far. So far, I might not even come back.
He pretends not to see I am hurt. He's very good at that. Not seeing me.
I don't hear him go out in the morning. No sound of the lock falling in place that denotes sure exit.
So I wake up in total panic. My mind's been running to catch up with him already. And I lie awake waiting for him to come back.
What if he doesn't?
He does. He takes his time... as always. He loves to make me wait... as always.
Where do you get shoes that make someone run towards you?

There are other ways - hide the key/ change the alarm time/make not so good food :)
May be getting into your own shoes and accompanying him in the morning might work!!!! :P

If you do find the shoes, let me know...:)
Nice post.....as always..
I think he is making you 2 wake up early in morning so that you will be feeling more energetic...:)
Bakfire: I hope the role also suits me just as well!
Newreader: Honestly- he did suggest that! :)
Devarenjini: :)
Pushkal: Which is why I cant seem to keep my eyes open after 10!
Buy the same shoes n run beside him.
If he doesn't come back, you don't.
BTW, HAPPY THAT YOU RUN BACK TO US :)))
Ty: Remember the promise of Tahiti? That's where I will run to.
Oh its other way for me..my wife wants me to run & stay fit but I use the new running shoes as pillows & sleep!!!
Am so glad you are back.. :)
