I felt like my nerves will burst.
I havn't slept for days. Slept in peace for days.
Work load was too much for me to bare.
That's when the need to see you hit me.
I called you.
With every ringing, my threads of patience seemed to break.
Ring...
Ring...
Ring..."Hello?"
Your soothing voice made it difficult for me to control anymore and I let out a small whinper which didn't go unheard from you.
"Babe, what happened? Are you crying? Do you wanna do face time? Or better is if I come to your house? Shall I? Tell me."
I chuckled listening yo your non stop questions.
"Please come."
"I am on my way, sir" I imagined you saluting and with that we ended the call.
A few minutes later...
"Babeeeeee, open the doooorrrrr. Your savior is hereeee." Hearing you, I ran towards the door and opened it.
As soon as I saw you, I latched onto you.
Peace...
"Let me get in. It's freezing outside."
We entered my silent aboard and sat on the couch.
"I'll listen to you but first you tell me if you have done your dinner." You asked.
I looked down at my feet and shook my head.
You sighed and went towards the kitchen, "I am preparing some instant noodles till then you change into your most comfy outfit and clean your bedroom. I'll be there in ten."
I simply nodded and did as I was told.
You entered with the noodles in the bowl and the tangy essence of the noodles hit my nostrils.
You smiled and sat infront of me.
"Let me feed you."
"I am not a baby." My voice came out small.
"Aww...really?"
"Yes."
"But the blush says something else." You said laughing and then started to feed me.
A comfortable silence engulfed the atmosphere. The only sound that could be heard were slurping of noodles and ticking of clock.
A few minutes passed and we were done having dinner.
You wiped my face, got me into bed and tucked me under blanket, now patting my head.
"Now tell me. What happened?"
And that was enough. I started to let out small whimpers that further converted into sobs.
You hugged me and started rubbing small circles on my back.
"I am so tired of e-everything. These days w-work is so hectic. I cannot even meet my o-own expectations. My boss's behavior isn't helping a bit. Why can't he understand that his employees are the people in his early twenties. A time where they are still learning. How can he expect us to be perfect? He always in-sults us for even a small mistakes. Can't he just correct us normally? Can't he just treat us like a human? What are we? Robots? That we will not make mistakes? I am s-so do-ne."
I kept rambling.
Emptying my heart.
You just pat my head and rubbed soothing circles on my back and said some sweet nothings.
We cuddled and you even tried to sing a lullaby for me to sleep but that was more like to wake me up. Haha...just kidding.
I was feeling much much better than before.
You kissed my forehead and cuddled me to sleep.
