to think that I gave in.

So where are we going

to meet my beloved wife?

Near the field with the tower.

Thank you.

- Bye.

Are you enjoying, meeting secretly

like this even though we're married.

Yeah... I've been having

fun for 36 years, madam.

I used all the tricks up my sleeve

to get a wife but she left me too.

We should've eloped instead.

This distance

is taking effect on you.

So tell me...why

did you call me here?

Better prepare yourself

to come hack home.

Ijust solved this

problem permanently.

Isee... How?

See for yourself.

Soon I'll take you hack home,

like wedding procession.

You could've said

this over the phone.

I wanted to see you.

But not me.

Why are you on-line

last night at 12:30?

Were you watching

my profile picture?

You must have run your

fingers on my photo, like this.

I see... how do you know?

Were you keeping an eye on me?

I have a drone hovering

over your father's home.

And it keeps telling me.

You know, since the day I left, I've

been sleeping embracing your picture.

So...stop doing it until

day-after-tomorrow.

Why?

- Everyone will think that you gave in.

Your phone's vibrating.

Hold on.

Speak up, bloody jinx.

stealing toilets as well.

Because of people like you even mugs

have to he chained in train's toilets.
