Teddy bear
You bought it for her on a whim, it looked cute enough
The design reminded you of her
"What's this, Anon?"
"Oh just a little gift, nothing special"
She stares at it
"...Thanks"
She grabs it and puts it on her drawer
Well, at least she tolerated it
A few weeks later, you have to leave on a business trip
"You SURE you have everything ready?"
"Kronii you've made me check like 5 times already"
You say your goodbyes and you leave
A few minutes later, she starts pacing around the living room
She keeps looking at the front door, like she's expecting something
She should be working right now, but she can't for some reason
After an hour, she decides it's time
Your phone vibrates
"you there yet?"
"...No I'm still on my way"
"ok, don't miss me too much"
She goes to her room, still glancing at the front door at times
She grabs the teddy bear and hugs it
She continues her day as normal, keeping the plush close to her
Whenever she felt lonely she'd hug it
At night, she brings the teddy bear to the bed
You receive another message
"you doing alright?"
"Yeah, miss you a bit though"
"thought so lol"
"Are you at least a bit lonely?"
She hugs the plush tight
"of course not, you're coming back in two days"
You chat a little bit more
"Kronii, gotta go. I have to wake up early tomorrow"
"...ok"
"Sleep tight"
"kroyasumiii"
"Love you"
"love you too"
She closes her eyes, not letting the plush go
"...Just two more days"
