ALWAYS WAITING FOR ONE TEXT MESSAGE

For the past six years, I've found myself eagerly awaiting a text message or a missed call from my love every morning and night. Days without her morning text leave me distracted and unfocused, making it difficult to concentrate on my tasks. I become easily irritated when faced with even minor requests or demands.

I believe many couples in relationships can relate to this longing and anticipation. Expressing these feelings to her has always been a challenge for me. Our early days together, during our school years, were marked by limitations and constraints. We couldn't communicate freely due to family restrictions and infrequent phone access. Our interactions were limited to brief smiles exchanged at school.

Yet, that simple smile from her would brighten my entire day. On weekends, she would occasionally call me from her home phone, and I would always be ready, eagerly awaiting her call. Even though our conversations were short, lasting just a few minutes, they meant the world to me. On weekends when she couldn't call, a text message from her would bring a smile to my face, reminding me of our love.

Those days were filled with a bittersweet longing, a mix of joy from our brief interactions and the pain of missing her. Time has passed, but my feelings remain unchanged. Even now, I find myself eagerly waiting for that one text message from her, a simple yet powerful reminder of our enduring love.
