After years of dealing with her husband’s constant tardiness, one frustrated wife decided she had finally had enough. One evening, after waiting yet again for him to return home late, she hatched a plan to teach him a lesson.

She left a note on his dresser that read:

“I’ve had enough and have left you. Don’t bother coming after me.”

But instead of actually leaving, she decided to hide under the bed, eagerly anticipating his reaction when he found the note.

Shortly after, her husband arrived home. She heard him moving around in the kitchen before making his way to their bedroom. Her heart pounded as he picked up the note and read it silently. After a brief pause, he grabbed a pen and scribbled something on the paper.

What happened next was completely unexpected. He pulled out his phone and dialed someone. His tone was relaxed, even cheerful.

“She’s finally gone,” he said casually. “Yeah, I know, about time, right? I’m coming over now. Put on that sexy French nightie. I love you… can’t wait to do all the naughty things you like.”

The wife, still hidden under the bed, felt her world shatter. Her chest tightened, and her ears burned with anger. Her heart pounded so loudly she could barely hear as he grabbed his keys and walked out, the sound of his car fading into the night.

Tears streamed down her face as she crawled out from under the bed, her body trembling with a mix of rage and heartbreak. Desperate for answers, she snatched the note to see what he had written.

But what she read stopped her cold:

“I can see your feet. We’re out of bread. Be back in five minutes.”

In an instant, the emotional storm dissolved into stunned silence. It turned out her husband had been one step ahead of her the entire time. The phone call was nothing more than an elaborate act, a playful retaliation for her prank.

While her emotions had been thrown into chaos, the situation ultimately ended on a lighthearted note. Both husband and wife had attempted to outwit each other, and in the end, the whole ordeal became a humorous reminder about the importance of communication—and never underestimating your partner’s sense of humor.

Their story serves as a playful lesson: when it comes to love and marriage, sometimes laughter truly is the best medicine.
