8 months of talking, I Finally received him at the airport. The mouth odor received me first. Voice notes. Video calls. Late night conversations. This man could talk. Funny. Smart. Intentional. I was at that airport 30 minutes early. He walked through those doors and I ran to hug him. Then he opened his mouth to say my name. I heard it before I processed it. Something ancient and powerful hit my nose.😭 I told myself it was jet lag. Long flight. Recycled air. Dehydration. I gave that man every excuse in the book. Day 3 same thing. Day 5 I was sitting across from him at dinner watching his mouth move and hearing nothing because I was calculating how to bring this up without ending everything we had built in 8 months. I said nothing. He went back abroad. We talked less after that. Drifted slowly. Never told him why. Till today he probably thinks the distance killed it. Baby the distance was not the problem. I just couldn’t spend my life turning my face every time you said I love you. 😭
