Answer:
A man of 80 years, short, very well preserved who takes great care of his appearance is moving to an old people’s home today. His seventy-years old wife has recently died and he is obliged to leave his home. After waiting several hours in the retirement home lobby, he gently smiles as he is told that his room is ready. He slowly walks to the elevator.
It is not his first visit to the Home. He has been frequently visiting the place along with his wife for the last so many years. He had often looked upon the faces of the residents with love, not unmixed with pity. Then, he had often wondered what would have happened Of him if he had not married Shakuntla soon after the death of his first wife. He was 50 then and Shakuntla was only 28. Many of his friends had secretly shown their disapproval but he knew how difficult it was to live alone.
Thanks to Shakuntla, these forty two years of their married life had passed so well. And now when he is coming to this Old-Age-Home, he is satisfied that he has lived his life well.
its the answer.....
