A thirty-three-year-old man woke up to the loud ringing our his phone. His hands patted the side table in annoyance to find the source of the noise. Feeling his phone on his hands, Yang opened his eyes to see who would call in this ungodly hour. Seeing Mei Li's registered name, he sat up straight with wide eyes. The sleep in his eyes was gone in a manner of seconds.
"Hello?" Yang answered the call as fast as his fingers could.
"Are you awake? Did I wake you? Have you eaten your breakfast? What are you going to do later?" Mei Li continued to ask him more questions. Her breath was starting to grow heavy as she spoke more.
Yang blinked his eyes in astonishment. Was she missing him that much? Suddenly, his lips morphed into a broad grin that brightened up the room. He laid back down and placed his free hand on the side where Mei Li usually slept. He missed her too.
