The unanticipated birthday surprise

Turning 80 years old is a very important milestone. It represents reaching a significant age that symbolizes a lifetime of experiences, wisdom, and accomplishments.

On the day he turned 80, a man who has described his relationship with his daughter as close, decided to spend the day with her and pay her a surprise visit.

Following his wife’s passing, the two haven’t seen each other very often, but they have talked on the phone daily.

As the man approached his daughter’s home and knocked on the door, she answered it and was very surprised to see him but wasn’t excited about the visit. What’s most, she asked him what he was doing there, which confused the elderly man who was convinced his daughter would be happy to see him.

“I wanted to spend my birthday with you,” he said, still puzzled by her strange behavior. What’s most, she asked him to leave right away.

His daughter has never treated him that way, which was a red flag. “Was something else going on?” he wondered.

As he turned around and left, he glanced at the house one single time and that’s when he noticed two armed men inside the house.

This explained everything. His daughter was forced to throw him out.

He quickly alerted the police and explained the situation, urging them to hurry.

Officers were at the scene in no time. They surrounded the daughter’s place and then entered inside forcefully. After a couple of minutes, which seemed like an eternity to the elderly man, they got outside with two men in handcuffs.

The man’s daughter came after them and hugged her father. “Dad, I’m so sorry,” she cried. “I was trying to keep you safe. Those men broke in just before you got here. I didn’t know what to do, and I didn’t want you to get hurt.”

He was happy things turned out fine and his daughter was safe.

They spent the rest of the day together and it was the best birthday he could ever ask for.
