My life is wonderful
But it has its unpleasant episodes
Like this one
I'm really not feeling well
No energy
High fever
Some aches and pains
Thankfully, I have such a kind and considerate husband
He insisted I get some rest and promised to take care of me until I felt better
It can't be easy, since he also has to look after our kids
He comes in to refill my water glass
"You know, I usually see you flushed for a different reason"
I give a weak but genuine laugh
Sometimes I wonder if he's too good for me
But he always reassures me that I'm not taking advantage of him
I give him just as much as he gives me
We deserve each other in the best way
"Feeling any better, honey"
"Maybe a little. Knowing I have such a loving husband helps."
"Come on, honey, you're making me blush."
"You make me blush all the time."
"Touche"
It took quite a bit of convincing from him to make me stay in bed
When I get better, I'm going to make it up to him
Not sure how yet, but I will
I've been making it up to him ever since I first met him in Japan all those years ago
