A man eagerly waited at the train station

A man eagerly waited at the train station to pick up his mother-in-law, who was visiting for the first time in a while.

After spotting her, he greeted her with a smile and helped load her heavy suitcases into the car.

As they drove in silence for a while, the man nervously asked,

“So, how long are you planning to stay with us?”

His mother-in-law, with a knowing smile, replied,

“I’m planning to stay as long as you want me to!”

The man thought for a moment, smiled back, and said,

“What, so short?”
