Him: "Good morning mea I really hope you eat and have a good start to your morning. Please don't work any more doubles at work"

Him: " I very much miss you and I'm really glad you're sleeping but I can't wait to talk to you"

I wake up after sleeping for 10 hours. I also just worked 10 hour shifts two nights in a row prior to this, so it makes sense why I slept so much. It was about 11am when I woke up.

Me: " doubles means money. Money means shopping.. so no promises but I will try to eat. I'm not really hungry but good morning/afternoon. How is your day?"

Him: " it's going okay. I took bear on a walk around town and then I worked out. Now I'm just eating."

Me: "I still can't believe you named your dog bear. I was just joking when I suggested it. "

Him: " I think bear suits him. So what are you going to do on your day off?"

Me: " well I plan on going shopping with my grandma. I think I'm going to buy a Apple Watch so I have that for work"

Him: " I don't see the point in a Apple Watch. You have to have your phone near you in order for it to even work"

Me: " you can definitely tell you work from home. You can be on your phone as much as you want. Having a watch makes it more subtle to look at who texts you. Especially with me working at a place that doesn't like you on your phone. Also, I want it because then I can see all the cute little I miss you messages you send me when I work hehe"

Him: " mea mea mea you are the cutest and I will gladly text you all the times you're on my mind while you work. Little messages to hopefully help you get through the day :)"

Sometimes our conversations would be short and sweet because of the time difference and having our own lives to tend to.

It was like I had two different lives and in a way I loved that. I loved that I could come back to him and my life here at home could be going bad or good. No matter what I knew it would just get better once I was able to talk to him or to just fall asleep on the phone with him.
