A Great Coincidence

Wifey and i were sorting our examination dockets for our paper tomorrow earlier today. Both of us will be taking one of our final part paper for a professional accounting qualification. It has become somewhat a concern to wifey where we will be seated in tomorrow's exam. Being close to the end of her pregnancy now, she is worried if the emergency moment ever happens in the midst of our examinations (na'uzubillah), and i wasn't in sight to attend to her. So we checked our dockets for the first time today, although we've received it from the examining board as long ago as mid of May.

Wifey: I'll be seated in hall 2. What about you?

Me: (opening the exam docket from it's envelope clumsily) Yeah, same here! What's your seat number though?

Wifey: (looking at the docket intently once again) 277.

Me: Huh? I'm seated at 278!

What are the chances of our seats being next to one another? We had registered ourselves on different days, and even received our respective dockets on different days. The fact that we found ourselves to be seated next to one another under such unlikely circumstances was then rather extraordinary.

So wifey can be now be rest assured that i'll be around tomorrow, no matter what happens Insya-Allah. Although i hope the baby can wait a little while longer until both mum and dad finish the exam tomorrow... :-)
