Answer:
Explanation:
In 'The way up to heaven' by Roald Dahl, Mr Foster appears to be a man who finds pleasure on seeing his wife under pressure and stress. She has this pathological fear of missing a train, a plane, a boat or even a theatre curtain (and in case she gets delayed, her nerves near her eye begin to twitch and Mr Foster finds happiness in that). He deliberately does something or the other to delay his wife into something or to tense her up, to make her suffer, like when she leaves for Paris to see her daughter and grandchildren. Though Mr Foster doesn't accompany her on the flight, he comes along with her in the taxi. Unfortunately, a fog rolls up and she gets delayed due to the bad weather. Thankfully, the flight gets postponed. The next time too, it happens and she is again put under pressure (by her husband). Though Mrs Foster is aware all of this, she can't really speak against her husband.
