A photo came through of us on the first day of kindergarten. We were holding hands, and my head was tipped back in laughter, and he was just smiling at me. It was one of my favorite pictures of us. I printed it on my little phone printer and set it on my nightstand with the photo that he’d sent of us on the airplane.

The food is good here, but it’s a little spicy. I miss taking the horses out with you. I think of you every night before the sun sets. It’s our time. Always has been, always will be.

Chewy

It doesn’t matter where I am. I think of you nonstop.

I got hit on tonight, and I let her know I was practically married. Because, in a sense, I am. You have my heart, and you always will.

He sent a selfie of him holding up his phone with the vibrant city behind him and his handsome face smiling at me. I printed it and slept with it clutched to my chest.

Desperate times call for desperate measures.

Monday evening, there’d been a knock on my door and an enormous vase filled with yellow daffodils and yellow roses was handed to me.

The card read:

There are no citrine flowers, so this is the best I can do. There are 29 daffodils and 29 roses (pending Janine at Cottonwood Blooms counted correctly). One of each flower for every year that I’ve been lucky enough to call you my best friend. You are that and so much more. I will love you forever, Miney.

Xo, Chewy

Tuesday

Chewy

I ate some sort of porridge this morning and got a bad case of the shits on set. Not a good look. I was running to the shitter between scenes.

Chewy

It’s beautiful here. I wish you were with me. There is no one that I want by my side other than you. I ache for you, Miney.

Chewy

I’m glad that you keep hearting these texts, so I’ll keep them coming. But I wouldn’t mind hearing from you either. A sign of life. Can you throw me a bone?

I’d laughed at that. And of course, I responded.

I’m giving you time to figure things out. But I miss you so much, Chewy. I’m here, and I’ll continue to be here. Always.

Chewy

That’s all I needed to hear. I’ll keep blowing up your phone because you’re all I think about.

Chewy

Well, I think about your often, too. About your perfect tits and your gorgeous legs and the way I wish they were wrapped around me.

Only Finn could be comfortable sexting me from Tokyo in a one-sided conversation.

Chewy

Just answer me with one word. Do you think about me and touch yourself?

Yes. No more questions. Keep the texts coming and go be a movie star.
