Infatuation
“Full moons don’t just happen, it rotates” - happy man
I can’t blame Jane when she married me. She’s got funny bones that matches mine. I guess we are what you can call bonemates.
After years of marriage, I can still say that we are in our honeymoon stage. It’s more on how we look at each other, like everyday, we learn something new about the other. Sure there are irritations but instead of biting each other’s ears off about our differences we just amuse ourselves with it. Everyday is a revelation that I will discover something new in her and likewise. Like today, I was able to prove that she can sleep till 9 am and beat her world record yesterday. She woke up at 8:45 am yesterday. Meanwhile, she also has amazing discoveries that I have a talent for doing Beethoven’s symphony in double quartet minus all the Philharmonic instruments. And I do it while I sleep. And everynight is a different set of staccatos and falsettos. Really, she sleeps well when I snore like no other and wakes up whenever I stopped.
But humans as we are, we also hit our ceilings and blow our tops. We had one of the fiercest bout ever and after we braved the storm there was a two day truce. Two days of awkwardness because we aren’t good at not talking and laughing with each other. Then somehow the silence was broken and during a lighter time, Jane asked me if I still love her. I said give me two more days to answer. We are laughing again. Then when I was alone, I really asked myself what Jane asked me. And honestly my answer is No. I donot love her anymore the way I did when I first laid eyes on her. Instead, I love her now with all my life that extends to our three daughters. Because I will be able to truly love my kids, my extensions, only when I truly love my wife. I love her now with no reservation. Interestingly though, I still have a crush on her.
