My wife Karol was seven months pregnant

when we found ourselves stuck in a long grocery line.

Suddenly, a man bulldozed into our cart — and her —

barking, “Step off, I’m in a rush!

” My blood boiled, but Karol grabbed my arm and whispered, “Just watch.

” I had no idea what she meant, but I trusted her.

We stood back as he smugly paid and strutted toward the exit.

Right then, the security alarm blared.

Two guards stopped him, and his confidence vanished.

I turned to Karol in shock. She was already smirking, as if she had seen it coming all along.

She grinned. “While he was busy being rude, I slipped a security tag into his pocket.

A little goodbye gift.” I couldn’t stop laughing — she’d just served him a dose of instant karma.

My wife had nerves of steel and a sense of justice sharper than mine.

That day, I realized my wife was not only the love of my life but also the queen of poetic justice.

Sometimes, karma needs a gentle nudge — and Karol delivered it flawlessly

. I couldn’t have been prouder to stand beside her.
