A night where I am so glad to have you.
Today I had been very depressed due to a lot of things going through my mind. The thing that cheered me up the most was meeting up with Emily. I have to admit I missed her dearly and seeing her was just the high point of my day.
Without saying anything (and my best efforts to show that nothing is wrong) she knew that something was bothering me. It always amazes me when she does that... Of coarse with me being me I kept on saying nothing is the matter until finally give in and let her know what is on my mind. I don't know why I didn't just tell her in the first place, it's as if I told her it meant I couldn't handle the situation myself or that I was too weak to go on alone. Stupid male pride I guess... Oh well. She didn't have any criticisms or sarcastic remarks about what I was thinking about. All she did was hold my hand and that eased the burden for awhile.
We stopped by a 7-eleven to get some drinks as we both were a bit thirsty. I stayed in the car because most of the parking was taken (so I was double parking...Like you've never done it before)... She came back in about a few minutes later with a plastic bag filled with all kinds of goodies.
"Did you see me just now?" she said in her cute tone. She always did this in hopes that it would cheer me up, and at some level it did.
"I just glanced a bit." I admit I had only glanced at her as she went in and my thoughts just wondered towards the same old problems. Funny how thoughts really torment you. "why?"
" I got you something." I just love it when her eyes flare up, just makes me want to hold her tight and never let go."chocolate ice cream!"
A smile appeared on my face. I remembered the time when she herself was feeling a bit down
and I bought her a chocolate chip cookie from Starbucks to go with her chocolate frappacino, saying that the chocolate will make her feel better. Just something about chocolate that just calms the stress that life throws at you.
We drove to the beach and we enjoyed our snacks. We did nothing special, just talking and enjoying each others company. It's times like these when things are really troubling me that I can see that she truly cares and that she truly loves me. To me that is what makes her so special that she could understand me and love me so perfectly, despite my many flaws. I too, feel the same for her. She is my support in life and I wish to be there for her when she needs me. I would be willing to drop whatever it is that I'm doing just to be that shoulder for her to cry on, that loving hand that embraces her to ease the pain. Though I may not have all the solutions to the problems but I am willing to listen anyway, to give her the love and support that she deserves.
It's nights like these that make me glad to have you in my life, Emily.
