Absence makes the heart feel like hell

First post into the new year. The work issues are dying down though the specter and the ramifications are still lurking. Sweet relief touched down at the airport on the 4th and I must say it's good to see her after what seemed like an eternity.

This whole work business has made me miss my dearest so sorely that I negotiated and bargained with my boss to be given the day off just to head to the airport to pick her up. Originally slated to arrive in the early evening (hence the need to take the day off) it turns out the flight was delayed. This ought to be the one and only time I won't curse a flight delay.

So there I was, waiting at the arrival hall without letting her know. All the while afraid to move off for fear of missing her if I were to go someplace else. It was such sweet relief to finally see her appear from the corridors and I hope she had a pleasant surprise to see me there. At the same time, I think I surprised her travelling companions as well.

The effect of her presence or absence was very profound, as I found out during the crisis period at work. I sorely missed her words of comfort and teasing. If she wants to, she can never fail to perk me up when I feel down. To call her my Angel is not an understatement because not alot of people can have that effect on me.

She does have her flaws occassionally though I have always weathered through them. It's all part and parcel of being together with someone other than yourself or family. We are finally at this stage after close to 5 years of waiting and hoping, I have no intention of screwing things up. I have finally found my other wing.

The writer is still in the midst of handling a crisis at work but he appreciates the effort and the occassional (NON-WORK-RELATED) messages he recieves from her. Domo arigatou gozaimasu! Best of luck for your exams!
