9 Years Pass

Kathy and Brandon were your typical married couple. They had disagreements from time to time. They had shouting matches where they slammed doors, and there was one time that they thought that they were going to give up on their marriage altogether. Through all of this, they never opened the box. They never even considered it. Even after moving three times, they didn’t open the box.

Kathy’s Reason For Not Opening the Box

Kathy says that she has a good reason for not opening to box, even when she and Brandon had troubles. She said that they both avoided turning to the box because it would have meant that they had failed. She worried that opening it would mean that she didn’t have what it took to make their marriage work. They were both too stubborn and too determined for that. When they fought, they would wonder what would happen if it wasn’t their worst fight. They worried that if they opened it, they wouldn’t have it to rely on just in case they really needed it. Both she and Brandon had comfort that the box was always there, unopened if things got really bad.

Finally Deciding To Open It Up

They were discussing a wedding that they would be attending in their college town of Kalamazoo. They were trying to figure out what they were going to get the happy couple for their wedding. Kathy thought back to her own wedding to figure out which gift had the biggest impact. They wanted to give something just as meaningful to their friends. Kathy and Brandon agreed that the gift that had the biggest impact was the gift that was sitting up in their closet, still unopened. They finally decided to open it up.

What The Couple Expected

Kathy thought that when she opened the box that she would find the key to saving a marriage. Maybe it would be an age-old trick that her aunt Alison wanted to pass to her and Brandon who were rookies when it came to marriage.

There was something in the box for each of them.

Gifts For the Two Of Them
