My W sent me an email at about 2PM with just one word in it, “Hey”. I replied with “Hey back!” I didn’t get another reply back after that so I was thinking, what’s going on here. W called me at around 3:30PM and just chatted about her work and mine and about me picking up S8 at 4:15, our conversation tone was upbeat the whole time and then we said goodbye.
We got home, W was there already as usual and she was checking her email. We both greeted each other, talked about what we were going to do for dinner and both agreed on later dinner after her water aerobics and tennis game. I went to the TV room and left her to do her computer stuff and then it was time for her to get ready and go to her water aerobics, she was walking to the pool and I’m to pick her up and drop her off at tennis after. She got ready and before leaving gave me a kiss and said “Sorry about this morning and/or the night before.” W gave me a hug and kiss on the check again before she stepped out of the house. The rest of the night was good, W was in a happy mood, I stayed and watched her play tennis with her tennis partner. Her tennis partner was someone she had played with for about a year and half now but never really met him. She made it a point a couple of weeks back to introduce me to him. Lately she seems to want to integrate me more into her newfound freedom of not having to be at a certain place at a certain time for me and S8. An example, last night on the way home from tennis she asked if I wanted to go with her at another tennis game so I can meet her other tennis partner (female) and stay to watch if S8 and I wanted to.
We got home after tennis and had late dinner, she rested on the couch and I sat by her. W snuggled with me and said she’s really tired from the activities. I suggested we just go on to the bedroom in case she falls asleep she doesn’t need to get up and move. She agreed to that. S8 said goodnight and we laid there close to each other. She looked at me and asked “Did you go crazy today at lunch time?” I replied, “Yes, I kept thinking about you and I just had to let you know what I had in my chest before I go crazy”. She smiled. W also asked if I got any sleep the night before and I tell her that I did finally sleep when my body just couldn’t keep awake anymore.
She turned her back and requested that I rub her back. During this time she gave a deep sigh. Nosy me, I asked, “what was that sigh about”. She replied, “I don’t know, I think I’m turning around” I didn’t quite know what to say about it, and I just replied, “oh really…” She replied “Yeah”. And then she started kind of singing the Bonnie Tyler song…. Turn around… Bright Eyes… I’m a little in shock and happy at the same time but I don’t want to get too riled up in it that it might just explode in my face. She fell asleep cuddled with me and that felt nice. We woke up early since we needed to get gas for both our cars and it just happened that S8 crawled in bed with us during the morning. She laid on her tummy between S8 and me. We were looking at each other’s face and then she asked “What?” I replied. “You know what” with a smile. I was hinting at ILY, She replied again, “No I don’t” smiling also. We went on with this a couple of times and then she had to get ready. I so wanted to tell her ILY, but I still managed to hold it back.
