It didn't quite dawn upon me how big our bed was till I slept through the whole of last night all by myself. It was the first night since we tied the knot that I was sleeping without Lar Lar by my side. He didn't run away from home, neither did we quarrel. He just had to do his part for the nation and serve the country as well as the people ie. fulfilling his reservist requirements.
Last night, although I was still feeling drowsy from my medication, I sent him back to camp. He kissed me lightly on my lips before stepping out of the car, I guess with much fear that I would pass the flu virus to him. With lingering looks, I watched him slowly dragging his feet to the guard house. I waved him goodbye before I sped off to catch my much needed beauty sleep.
Back home, I stared blankly at our big bed and jumped straight into it. I was just wondering what would Lar Lar be doing at this moment when my thoughts of him slowly fade away and I succumbed to the effects of medication. That quiet moment didn't last long as my phone rang and it was Lar Lar calling to say goodnight to me. It reminded me of our dating days when every night he would call to say goodnight to me. After the phone call, it took me only seconds to fall back into deep sleep again.
Tonight, once again, I am blogging away on my side of the bed, leaving an empty space by my side, imagining him by my side playing his PSP or iphone. I am starting to miss his presence and his noise and how he likes to irritate me and almost everything about him. Hope these few days will pass quickly and I can get to see him again. And I promise this time round, I will let him irritate me without me showing any signs of frustration :)
