HUSBAND: Hi
WIFE: I will go buy the sausages you wanted
HUSBAND: Darling?
WIFE: What is it?
HUSBAND: I wasn’t texting because of the sausages
WIFE: What is it then?
HUSBAND: I was texting you because I miss you
WIFE: You miss me?
HUSBAND: Yes, is that hard to believe? I have been going through the messages we send each other and it saddened me
WIFE: Why is that?
HUSBAND: Where did our warmth go? I miss us. Our messages are so dry, cold and empty; no wonder when we come home it still remains dry, cold and empty. I even have better conversations with my colleagues yet you are my wife
WIFE: Life happened. We got married, we had children, we have bills to pay
HUSBAND: No darling, we dropped the ball. Life will always happen but should we kill our warmth because of responsibilities? Isn’t marriage supposed to be about companionship? There are many couples that have maintained their warmth, why not us? Scroll through our messages and tell me if you see companionship
WIFE: I have scrolled. All I am seeing are one word answers and demands we order each other. Do this, do that, OK…. Our vibe is flat
HUSBAND: And I bet in your phone you will find long chats between you and others
WIFE: True. I am a chatter. I chat a lot, especially with my girlfriends. And I will be honest, even with other men
HUSBAND: OK
WIFE: Are you jealous?
HUSBAND: Yes. But I am more jealous of the old me, the old us; we used to be on fire. No man had anything on me
WIFE: Oh yes! I miss those days. I’d live my day with a smile on my face. It is interesting how a simple message of love from you made me smile, I miss smiling because of you
HUSBAND: Who makes you smile these days?
WIFE: No one. I make myself smile
HUSBAND: I stopped playing my role. Forgive me
WIFE: I did too, I am sorry
HUSBAND: I miss you
WIFE: I need to get my sausage
HUSBAND: You are back to talking about responsibilities again Darling?
WIFE: I meant the sausage between your legs
HUSBAND: Ha ha ha, you used to call it cassava
WIFE: I know… he he he.. It’s a new year season for us, new names
HUSBAND: Ahh, I like that. You will get your sausage
WIFE: I better. You know how much I like it!
HUSBAND: Thank you for making me smile
WIFE: Thank you too. We should do this more often
HUSBAND: Agreed. I love you
WIFE: I love you too honey. See you later in our warm home
