![]() ![]() “It’s only been three days since he left.” Ichy continues with a smirk. ![]() “Is something wrong?” Johji looks at me with a worried expression and I realize that I shouldn’t be talking about this. I just miss him.” I force a smile and even though they give me suspicious looks, none of them asks anything else about it. “ You can always stay here if you want.” Johji says with a laugh. “But you can always talk to us if something is bothering you.” “Rihito would get upset if he heard this.” Haru joins in with a chuckle. “Whatever.” Ichy says with an embarrassed expression, and then we all laugh and joke around.Īfter spending almost the entire day with them, I start to walk back home. Richy is going to play piano at a big concert in France, so he won’t be home for over two weeks.Īfter graduating from college, I started to work at a local day care center while Richy started to play piano for a living. The kids at the day care center are always so happy and it’s so much fun to be able to work with them, so I really enjoy my job. And I love Richy’s piano, so I’m very happy for him too, he managed to make his dream come true. ![]() We moved in together last year and we’ve gotten even closer than we were before. It makes me happy to be able to fall asleep next to him every night and wake up beside him every morning. So I really miss him whenever he is away, but that makes me even happier when he finally comes back home to me. However, yesterday I found out that I’m pregnant but I don’t want to tell him that on the phone, so I have to wait for two whole weeks. I really wanted to share the news with him as soon as possible but even more than that, I want to tell him face to face. I’m lying in bed, but I can’t seem to fall asleep no matter how hard I try. I roll over to Richy’s side, thinking it might make it easier to sleep that way, when my phone suddenly makes a sound. I peer at the screen and it says that I have a mail. I open it and see that it’s a music file from Richy. I scroll down and read the attached text message: I smile to myself when I think about him, it’s almost as if he always know whenever I start to feel lonely. I wrote it just for you, so I hope it helps!” “Hello! Is everything okay? ) I miss you and I can’t wait to see you again! I thought you might have some trouble sleeping, so I sent this. I can almost hear his cheerful voice as I read through the short, but comforting message from him. Even though I don’t want to, tears start to well up in my eyes when I realize that I miss hearing his voice. It’s ridiculous, he has only been gone for a couple of days and here I am, crying just by reading a text message from him. I take out my headphones and then I make myself comfortable in the bed as I open the music file he sent. The gentle sound of a piano greets me and my heart skips a beat when I think about the fact that he played this just for me. It’s almost as if he is here with me right now and it makes me feel safe and less lonely, I think to myself as I slowly close my eyes. That night, I fall into a happy sleep while listening to Richy’s piano. Today, Richy is finally coming back home. For the past two weeks, I have been listening to his piano every night before going to bed, and I know the melody by heart. I’m walking back and forth in the hallway as I wait for him to come home. My heart is racing with anticipation and I wish time could go by faster. ![]() Then, I finally hear the sound of the front door opening and I quickly make my way there. “Welcome home, Richy!” I smile at him when he walks into our apartment and then I bounce into his open arms. He gives my body a squeeze, and I wrap my arms around him and bury my face in his chest. “Haha, I’m home.” He repeats with a happy laugh. ![]()
