Sweet Lullaby


I fell sick one morning; Body heating up, head throbbing hard, legs shaking from the cold.

Skype? He asked as usual.
I didn't say much, and turned my laptop on right away. My head felt as heavy as bricks and my throat was burning for no apparent reason.
I don't feel too good, Sayang. I'm going back to sleep, I said. Sounding as blunt as usual.
I'll be here anyway, that lovely voice answered.

I went back into my uncomfortable sleep and woke up every half an hour from then on, as the morning dragged along. But somehow every single time I opened my eyes, I would see him right there on the screen. Watching over me. Still. Just like he said he would. At times where I was too tired to even see if he was there, my simple "Bammy?" would be peacefully replied with a "Im here, Boo. Go back to sleep"

Tell me who else in this world would stay 5 hours on a static screen?
I told you he's one in a million.
