That could be a touching moment or something really creepy. I'm going to go with first one. Have a great day my friend.

David, yes it is both when you think about it, touching thinking about the old guy still looking for his wife and creepy thinking about the poor old lady waking to find a stranger cuddled up in her bed ! Thanks for visiting !
