And though I’m glad I get to see you once a month now, I spend all the days in between waiting for these ones. I don’t want to be away from you anymore.” “And if I’m not ready to go with you now?” “Then I’ll still buy you a house and it’ll be waiting for you.” I run my fingers through her hair. “And so will I.”
