The most known event of the year was taking place, and of course the roads were jam packed. “I don’t even care, just let me go home and sleep.” You whined, banging your head on the steering wheel.

Just then your phone rang and you saw the familiar colors on the caller ID, “Nulla!” You were elated and responded immediately, “Cariño? Are you ok? You’re a little late, are you stuck in traffic?” He sounded worried, “Yes,” You whined, “I shouldn’t have passed by the shopping district like usual, everyone is here buying last minute gifts.” You groaned, leaning back in your seat to watch the pedestrians on the side walks.

“It’s alright, honey. Don’t stress too much and be careful when driving, the roads are quite slippery these days.” This time his voice was softer and soothing, I couldn’t help but smile. “I will, thank you, darling.”

We sat in silence for a moment, he didn’t hang up, nor did I. “...Nulla?” “Yes, Cariño?” I giggled, “Won’t you hang up now?” The car in front of me finally moved after what felt like forever, so I straightened up, put the phone on speaker and took my turn. “Oh, ah yes, I can…”

I laughed out loud, “You don’t have to! We can chat, after all, I’m only sitting in traffic.” I let out a slightly exasperated sigh. He chuckled in response, “Then I’ll keep you company, honey. How was work?”

“Ugh~ Please don’t talk about that.” I groaned, “To answer your question though, it was fine. The day before break is always filled with last minute adrenaline to get everything done!” I heard him laugh on the other side, “Well I’m glad you were able to finish everything. I can’t wait to spend the rest of the week together~”

My smile stretched from ear to ear, “Same here~”

We chatted for a while about mundane things like work gossip, date plans and our love for each other. Soon enough, I pulled into the garage and parked my car. I climbed into the elevator and pressed my floor number. I entered my apartment, which was cold and dark.

“Nulla~ I’m home, darling!” I sprinted off to my bedroom, dumping my bag, jacket and shoes off by the door. “Cariño~” I could hear him calling to me in his silky sweet voice. I turned on my computer and his face flashed in front of my eyes.

He was beautiful in all red with a orange background~ Oh, how I loved him <3

“Mi vida~ I can’t wait to spend your break together <3” He lovingly embraced me in his arms. I could feel it, him shielding me from the cold room and the loneliness and cruelty of the world. He was all I needed.

You are all I need mi amor~
