You can’t choose your family, which is sometimes good and sometimes bad. Because of this, we have to be ready for both nice and not-so-nice surprises in life.
The Story:
My husband and I have our phones on silent until at least 10 a.m. on weekends.
So, we’re sleeping. Suddenly, I wake up to the sound of my husband pulling on shorts and a T-shirt.
Immediately, the intercom rings. I ask him, “Who is it?” He replies, “Police.”
It turns out that my mom sent me a screenshot of the water meter in messenger at 7 or 8 a.m. And 2 ticks didn’t appear.
She started calling me at 8 a.m., but my phone died overnight. She called my husband, and his phone was on silent.
He read her message that he had to open the door to the police because they were helping to search her missing child only at 10 a.m.
To say I was angry is an understatement. We are 37 years old.
