He snores. She has probably heard all types of snoring - loud, soft, funny, disturbing and even alarming. But all these sounds have the same outcome - an agony in her sleep. It makes her restless and uncomfortable. She changes her sleeping positions until she gets exhausted with her own actions and falls asleep eventually. Without complaints, she experiences this every night in their ten years of marriage.
One day, he gets home with a news that he'll be sent to another city on a business trip for three days. A discreet sigh of relief came out as it means complete freedom in the bedroom. He readies his luggage and wishes her safety while he's away. As soon as he's gone, she leaps out of excitement for a peaceful deep sleep tonight. It's too childish but she feels that way.
After a hot shower that night, she lies down on the soft bed and closes her eyes. Yet, things seem unusual. She's still restless, she's still uncomfortable and she can't lie still in one position. She hears no snoring echoes, only the anticipated silence. It goes on for three nights. Something's wrong.
He arrives and knocks the door. When she opens it and sees his smile, she realizes one thing: the delight of silence is nothing compared to the agony from snoring.
