The Power of a Text… and a Little Motivation

Late one evening, a husband sent a text to his wife:

“Hi, I’ll be late. Please try and wash all my dirty clothes and make sure you prepare my favorite dish before I return.”

He waited.
No reply.

Maybe she was busy. Maybe she didn’t see it.

A few minutes later, he decided to send a follow-up message:

“And I forgot to tell you—I got a raise! End of the month, I’m getting you a new car.”
