Too confident. Suspiciously confident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMorning, sir!\u201d the mailman said with a cheerful nod.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The husband squinted. \u201cGood morning\u2026\u201d He hesitated.

Oh no. This was war.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That night, the husband hatched a plan. He woke up early, grabbed a chair, and sat by the mailbox like a security guard on high alert. If the mailman so much as smiled too wide,&nbsp;<em>he\u2019d know<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At 9 AM sharp, the truck appeared. The mailman hopped out, still whistling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWow,\u201d he said, eyeing the husband\u2019s intense stare. \u201cYou okay there, buddy?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The husband narrowed his eyes. \u201cJust\u2026 making sure everything\u2019s in order.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The mailman chuckled. \u201cRelax, sir.
