Secret Love Nest

Adjustment Period

I am having a hard time sleeping these last two days. Maybe because I am not sleeping on my own bed with my own boyfriend.

Maybe because I am not in Beijing.

I am currently in Shenzhen, shooting a drama where I am casted as a villain.

I know, stop looking scared, I will not get into my usual speech of how badass my role as a gun carrying drug dealer with a big dog as my guard.

(You just did it)

Oh did I? My bad. He he

Anyways...working away is hard. I now understand what Qing felt when he had to go to Shanghai to shoot his drama and leave me behind.

I am feeling it now. And I am not the only one grumbling.

Qing: You really have to took it up one notch. Huh? Before, I was in Shanghai, just a two hour flight away. Now you, are in Shenzhen, more than three hours away by flying. Good job, Dayu. Happy now? Feeling satisfied?

Me: (sputtering) It's not like I chose this location. You know that.

Qing: Sure. Whatever. Have fun there in Shenzhen.

He is impossible. And my tantrums are not far.

Me: Oh I will. And you too. Have fun there in our home, alone.

Qing: (chuckling to annoy me) (ps. It's working) I am. Having a lot of fun. It's such a freedom to be the house without your OCD ass. I can drink without using a coaster. Put my feet on the center table while watching TV. I even took my clothes off in our room before showering and just throwing the towel anywhere after using them.

Oh my blood pressure. I can feel it rising.

Me: Oh yeah?

Qing: Yes. And the best part.

Me: (I am close to exploding) There is a best part?

Qing: Yes. The best part, I get to sleep alone again without worrying that someone will kick me or punch my face.

He is a meanie.

Me: (sniffing) I hate you! Have a good night sleep alone then! Goodbye!

I murdered the end call button. Plopping down on the bed inside my hotel room and sob like a damsel in distress that waits his Prince Charming.

Qing is such a meanie.

Then my phone beep. Qing messaged me. It says...

"I miss you so much. Can I fly there to see you?"

I want to cry and laugh at the same time. I called him again.

Me: (whining) It's only been two days.

Qing: (sighing) I know. But I really miss you. I think being together again and then being separated once more is hard. This is a lot harder than when I was in Shanghai, Dayu. To be honest.

Yes. I know what he means. When he came back home after his shooting in Shanghai and then we get to live together again as a couple in love, we never thought that we will be separated again by work after such a short time.

I really thought it wil take at least a year before it happens again but, here we are. In a long distance relationship again.

Me: I miss you too. What are you doing?
