Aunt Sarah

[phkrause]

David and Rachel Epstein’s once happy married life was on the rocks because of the presence in the household of old Aunt Sarah.

For seventeen long years she lived with them, always crotchety, always demanding.

Eventually, old Aunt Sarah passed away.

On the way back from the cemetery, David confessed to Sarah, "Honey, if I didn't love you so much, I don't think I would have put up with having your Aunt Sarah in the house all those years."

Rachel looked at David aghast.

"My Aunt Sarah!" she cried. "I thought she was 'your' Aunt Sarah!"
