"Its not about 'having' time. Its about 'making' time."
She just sat there staring at the same old movie they have been watching. She was upset. He could tell with the way she slided a bit away from him and the way she ignored him. It frustrates him when she does that, he wished she would be angry with him. He hated her silence.
Sighing he turned her around and sat her on his lap. Holding her small face between his rough hand, he stared into her eyes and softly whispered "i love you".
She lowered her head and tried to get up from his lap. Stopping her he pulled her into one for his famous bone crushing hugs. Holding her closed to him he thought back to what he did.
He was angry with himself for avoiding her. He was so caught up in his work he completed forgot about their plans and to top that of he didn't even inform her, not until a day later. She had been so worried. They had been planning this weekend for quite some time. They needed time for them. He knew he did wrong and he was ready to make things right again.
He held her chin and whispered "im sorry". When she started to lower her head he stopped her and said "No please just hear me out. I'm really sorry that i blew you of, it's just that i have been having some problems with my clients for sometime know. And that day i was just finishing my work, to come home earlier to surprise you but Andy called at the last minute for a meeting".
"Alright" she said with a small smile.
One word answer meant she was still upset. According to him, she is never upset for little things. Few things put her off. He knew how to bring her out of it.
"Listen to me okey. I love you and I'm sorry. More sorry than you can ever know. Work is no excuse for blowing you off. You are my number one priority. You are more important to me then anything in this whole wide world. Starting from tomorrow I'm taking off from work. We'll do all the things on our list. Just you and me." He looked at her with so much love in his eyes.
"You don't have to, just because I'm sad." She softly whispered staring into his eyes.
"I don't have to, but i want to. I want this to work. I want to show you that you are more important to me that anything." He said honestly.
She smiled, "I love you".
Pulling her to him, he tightly wrapped his arms around her and whispered into her ears, "I love you too."
