I’m missing my thing1 so much right now, the news has me stressed, and honestly, today has just been rough.

Sensing my mood, thing2 did something thoughtful—he drew me a bath and convinced me to take a moment to relax… in the middle of the afternoon. And you know what? It was exactly what I needed.

It was blissful, soothing, and for a short while, I let everything else fade away. And yes, I even allowed thing2 to join me on my bed afterward—a rare treat, but one he certainly earned today.

Sometimes, a little care and devotion go a long way.
