When Claire, John, and their son, Ethan, board a flight to John’s parents, John mysteriously disappears to Business Class, leaving Claire to tackle the flight with the baby alone. But when they get to their destination, Claire’s father-in-law teaches John a lesson that he won’t forget. About a week ago, my father-in-law really showed my husband that despite being married and having a son, he still had a lot to learn.
My husband, John, and I were gearing up for the long-awaited trip to his parents with our energetic two-year-old son, Ethan. John had been particularly stressed with work and kept going on about how much he needed a break. “Claire, I can’t wait to finally relax,” John said as we packed our bags.
“I just need some peace and quiet, you know?”
I smiled, though I was preoccupied with packing Ethan’s toys. “I know, John. We all need a break.
But it’ll be fun for Ethan to see his grandparents and be spoilt with their love for a bit.”
Little did I know, my husband had rather selfish plans in mind. At the airport, I was busy wrangling our toddler and managing the luggage while still trying to open a container of applesauce for Ethan. John mysteriously vanished.
“What the heck?” I muttered to myself, thinking that he probably went to the bathroom before we boarded. Later, I spotted him again at the gate, looking unusually calm. “Where have you been?” I asked, balancing Ethan on my hip.
“Just taking care of something,” he replied, a smirk playing on his lips. “And I needed to grab a pair of headphones.”
“Did you get me a pair?” I asked him. “No,” he said.
