A few days later, Jack came downstairs with the old shoe ticket in his hand. Angie looked up at her husband with an inquisitive look on her face, wondering what he was up to.

Jack frowned at the ticket and sighed, leaving his wife to ask him what was on his mind. Jack looked down at the ticket and then up at his wife and said he would visit the dry cleaners to see if they still had the shoes.

The 55-year-old man headed down to the dry cleaners, ticket in tow, and handed it over to the person behind the counter without flinching or giving away that he was 15 years late.

The worker took the ticket and returned a few minutes later without a look of surprise or confusion on his face. He looked up at Jack and stated:

"We have your shoes, they will be ready in five days. See you then."
