Everyone laughed when they sent an eighty-year-old man and his eighteen-year-old wife off to spend their wedding night together. “Let’s see if Grandpa can make it until morning,” one relative joked through a burst of laughter. He didn’t respond. He simply picked up his old briefcase and closed the door. When six relatives opened it the next morning, they stopped laughing when they discovered what he had been protecting all night.

By eleven o’clock, Brandon started pacing nervously back and forth in front of their locked hotel room door.

“I told everyone last night that he’s eighty years old, so something terrible must have happened to him in there,” Brandon insisted loudly to his wife.

The hotel manager initially refused to open the locked door, but Brandon kept insisting that it could be a life-threatening emergency.

They eventually brought up a staff master key and unlocked the heavy door.

The doors opened, and everyone in the hallway remained completely motionless at the sight inside.
