A change of season

Flying halfway across the world isn't easy. It's a long, restless, hard, expensive, cold, lonely journey. And not many would do that in this world, except maybe for education. Or a family trip and things like that. It's not easy being away from home and the people you call family. It's not easy having to change the way you eat, or dress. It's not easy not being able to crack a simple Malaysian joke, just because no one else would understand my gibberish blabs.

I am being honest.

Although being in this country seems like the best idea of a perfect life, it really isn't all that great. Guess there really is no place like home. It gets hard sometimes, but there are always things that get me by everyday. Little things. Simple things.

Like I said, flying halfway across the world isn't easy. But he flew for me. He went through the long, restless, hard, expensive, cold, lonely journey. For me.

Having him around for a whole week has changed us miraculously. Turned us around. Turned me around.

He left home with nothing on his mind but a simple

"Let's fall in love again perhaps"

And I did. I fell in love with him all over again, just like when we were kids a year ago. When nothing had to matter but school and clothes.

The past few months have been hard and we built a wall out of our own strained minds, placing us further away from each other. But there he was, on that very day. Smiling across the platform, wearing a look as if he was praying for a perfect miracle. I flew into his arms and grabbed him by the back of his neck, while he caught me and twirled me around, just like in the movies. He smelled exactly the same. Just the way I love it and that hug kept me warm for the next few minutes, atleast.

That moment itself, I was convinced that he is the one for me. If he isn't, what else could explain the way my heart was skipping beats and how my lips were running out of words to utter. How I had to hold my breath, just so the whole airport wouldn't hear me scream. I knew for sure, he is my husband.

Hours felt like minutes. Days felt like seconds. And the week felt like a nice, warm dream. Believe it or not, he flew halfway across the world for me and I doubt even the most charming prince wouldn't bother to fix this change of heart. He's not prince charming, he's not Hercules, he's not some rich boy you see spoiling his princess. He is much more than that. He's real. And he would fly across the world for me. Nobody can ever fill in his shoes because he is my everything.

And no matter where we end up in our lives, together, apart, as a family, or just acquaintances, I will always love you. I will always love you because of who you are to me and who you will always be. My savior. My hero. The guy of my dreams. I will forever love you.
