Love finally found me, and I finally found love.
The only issue was we had to deal with my busy schedule.
I was a worker holic and he had a few things going well for him as well.
I couldn't balance my time with his and we rarely saw each other these days.
I knew something was wrong but I couldn't bring myself to get it sorted because my everyday working schedule didn't have an atom of space in it.
I felt like I was being choked with my own priorities.
He mattered, and work also mattered. All I needed was time.
Maybe 1 hour from a fixed day in a week where we could sit down and talk about our problems.
If I could lend a minimum of 20mins, I'd be grateful.
I had a lot to talk to him about and with that aside, we had our pending issues to also get sorted out.
I kept praying for time.
Every chance I got with time, it gets snatched away from me.
We were this close to having a cup of ice cream and pizza at dominos and boom!
Here comes a phone call, I was needed urgently at the office.I'm sorry babe." I almost cried as I ran out leaving my snack on the table and leaving him to foot the bills of what would have been.
For all love is worth, I thought he'd leave me for good this time but I was wrong.
He followed me to the office.
