   Dear My beloved Jiyong,

I know it's only been a few days. But, I miss you already. I wish you didn't have to enlist in the military, but as your patient and loving wife, I will wait for you to come back.

Then everything will be back to normal. I love you so much.

Daesung visited me today and helped me around the house. I desperately need the extra help. I can't seem to get things done like I used to, especially with another human growing inside of me. I'm thankful for his help.

He also took me to shop for household appliances, because we seriously need another coffee table since you broke the leg of the previous one. You say it was an accident, but you and Youngbae know better than to be running in the house like that. Especially, with all this expensive art you have hanging on the walls.

Oh, yeah, speaking of art, I missed you so much that I painted a portrait of you. So now, all I have to do is look at it and I'll feel better. But, only a little. It's nothing like the real thing.

I really think my art skills are improving even more since I quit my job. My boss was an asshole anyway. He was so rude to the female workers, he can take a long walk off of a short pier for all I care. Excuse my french.

Daesung says that if I keep practicing, I'll become the next Vincent Van Gogh. I didn't know who that was at first, until I looked it up. The dude was nuts, he cut his ear off. Ew. I hope nothing happens to my ears. You like them just the way they are don't you?

Lee Seunghyun is good company too. He even tried to pretend to be you, by wearing a strange wig, glasses and rapped everything he said.

I couldn't stop laughing. Sorry. But it was funny at the time. I've been craving pizza a lot lately, SeungHyun and Daesung ordered lots of pizza for me. You know that  Hawaiian is my favorite, so that's basically what my diet's been consisting of. Ham and pineapple.

Don't be surprised when you come home and find a ton of pizza boxes piling up in the refrigerator. Oh, and I ate the rest of your candy. Your secret stash is no longer a secret. You can't hide anything from me, especially chocolate. I have the nose of a bloodhound.

Let's see, what else can I tell you?

Nothing much has happened. It just feels strange when Daesung and Seunghyun leave, the house is empty and I'm so lonely.

But, I can hold on for another year. I can handle it. I have television and food by my side, So I'm doing fine. I just fall asleep on the couch while the television is on most nights.

I don't like sleeping in the bed without you there. Do you think that's weird?

Remember that I love you. Stay safe. Eat a lot. I want you to come back as a strong healthy man who has enough energy to spend time with his wife.

Love, Rose.

P. S. The back of the refrigerator is not a good hiding place for candy.
