A touching scene in a kopitiam

I was having my dinner in a coffee shop recently a few days ago when I saw a very touching scene. An old couple, probably about 70 years old both of them was slowly walking to another table nearby mine. Okay, so, what's the big deal you might ask...?

The unique thing is that as both of them was hobbling slowly towards the table, both of their hands was clasped and hold on tightly together - you know, the type of holding that you see that newly fall-in-love type of hold that a couple would have. Both of them was bent over, was walking slowly step by step and despite the difficulties, they were so contented to hold each other hands like a new couple fall in love. Also, the man, being fitter of both of them, quickly rush over to another table to find a seat that has a backrest for his wife to seat. This he did with much difficulty as he himself is not that strong to carry the chair, but he slowly brought it over.

The next thing I saw was equally touching... the old lady was having difficulty bending down and sitting on the chair. The old man quickly rushed over and held her arms and shoulders and gently guided her to sit down and adjusted her seat for her so that she can sit down properly. The last thing I saw that he eagerly took attention of what the old lady wanted to eat and he quickly hobbled off to order food for their dinner.

Looking at the whole scene throughout the whole time almost brought tears to my eyes. I wish people will continue to have love and patient for one another nowadays in times where everyone are so concern with their own things. Looking at that incident also gives me the resolve to love my loved ones until even at my old age and to show an unconditional love that will not be diminished by time or physical, only through death shall do us part.
