I just looked at him. Hearing him say I love you again just made me speechless. His love is like a cleansing balm. Bringing slight relief to the anguish that I have lived with.
I wanted to respond. I really do but now is not the right time. I have to fix myself first. I have to prove to myself that I can stand on my own. That I can live on my own.
He smiled and said, "I don't need your answer right now, love. Don't worry about it. Just get this through that thick head of yours, 'we are in this for the long haul.'"
I just smiled. Knowing that he would understand the meaning behind my smile. He seemed to always know how I feel. I wonder how he does that?
"You seemed to have more experience in relationship than you let on." I asked in a joking manner. Although, a part of me does not like the idea of him associating with other women.
This took me by surprise.
