I must admit I thought about taking the money, but I decided to keep the ticket for good luck instead. Actually, my luck did change after that. I met my husband, Paul. On our wedding day, he said he felt like the luckiest man alive. At that moment, I decided to tell him the story of my lottery ticket to show him I was lucky too. Unfortunately, Paul started to laugh.

The next thing he told me was that he used to play the lottery and the numbers on the ticket were his lucky numbers. Suddenly, I knew who he was. It was Paul who dropped the ticket. I couldn't believe it! We weren't rich, but we were very happy anyway/luckily.
