Break Up

The car looked as if it had been hit by a tank.

A massive dent in the passenger door.

Every single window smashed.

The boot flipped open.

The hood and the roof scraped.

One of the tyres a hundred yards down the road.

And the driver stood laughing by the side of his car.

The passenger side, the one with the worst damage.

"What are you laughing at?"

"My ex-girlfriend!"

"What has she done that's made you laugh?"

"Broke up with me."

"And that made you laugh? You don't look too broken up!"

"Well, up until ten minutes ago she was my girlfriend. When she broke up with me, parked up outside her house, I threw her out my car. If we'd still have been together, she'd be dead."

Reality suddenly struck and he broke down in tears.

"I've never been so pleased to break up with anyone before."

Always look on the bright side, eh?

Every silver lining has a cloud.

I believe more and more that things happen for a reason. Thank God she was out of the car. And the fact that he was so affected be the though really shows how much he cares about her.
