A marriage is like a rose; a romantic keepsake having the combination of thorns and petals. The red hue of the petals symbolizes love, and passion and is soft to touch. The thorns that lay on the stem, however, represent adversity and sacrifice.

I got back from university early today, and boy am I glad to be finally at peace. The hush and bush of college life was something I'll never fully get used to. The busier I get, the more I seek solace in being alone.
Grabbing a bottle of flavored milk from the kitchen, I took my study essentials and headed towards my room.
I could study in any corner of this big house thanks to its quietness; a major contrast to the neighborhood that I was raised in for my whole life. I miss home now and then, but I also realize that I could go back whenever I wanted to. The home was always waiting for me.
I turned on my phone to see several texts and missed calls from. . . Maxwell?
Wondering what's up with him, I decided to shrug it off and hop on another social media site. As I mindlessly scrolled away, I stumbled across a certain picture.
My face lit up the moment I saw a picture of Zayden.
It's not every day that my busy husband posted, so it was a big deal for me. And judging by the number of likes and comments, it was for others too. . .
My books could wait.
I quickly searched for his contact and began texting him, regardless of disturbing him during his work hours.
Me: Hey, cutie...
I bit my lip at my impulsive actions. I didn't want to be seen clingy but screw it.
Zayden: Love, you're back from college?
I did a little dance at his fast reply. Why on earth was I acting like a teenage girl?
Me: Yes. When are you gonna be back?
Zayden: Missing me?
Me: What do you think?
Zayden: Isn'tthat why you're texting me and smiling at the phone? ;)
I blushed at his text, pressing my lips together. He knew everything, didn't he?
Me: If you were by my side, I'd have kissed you.
Zayden: I'm in a meeting right now. I'm all yours when I get back home, alright?
I pouted, remembering it was a Thursday and that Zayden would come home late today.
