Lonely Spouse

The beginning of relationships are always sweet. Events to die for always springing up, the attention freely given you enjoy long phone conversations, constant hugging and impromptu kisses. Few months down the lane and the true definitions of ourselves begin to unveil and our lover's actions and inactions constantly inquiring of us "...is this what you signed up for?" This was the case of Alex and Joan suffering from less attention.

Alex baby you've been gone for so long I struggle to get by everyday without you by my side.

I'm sorry my love, work is getting the best of me these days.

Are you even sure its work? How am I sure its not some rich cougar who's camped you in her house to satisfy her Covid-19 lockdown urges?
Baby are you not tired of jerking off to the sound of my voice on the phone? This why I hate distant relationships.
This lockdown was supposed to be our get away holiday, just you and I.

Baby I swear to you there's no other woman it's just work.
And I miss you too.

Right!!! (Hisses)

It even gets worse

Oh yea?
How so?

Construction got delayed, we wouldn't be working for some days maybe weeks.

Why is that so?

uhmmm, our boss the Chinese engineer traveled for his Luna festival back home.

Ehen, so he went home to his family abi?

Not family I said festival!

What's the difference?
Is there a way he'll not end up winding down to see family his mum, his dad if any and smolder his wife too?

You're so predictable.
Anyways, we can't continue work because the borders have been closed so also all planes at the airport grounded.

So come home then.

I can't

Why not?

All interstate movements have been banned too. This virus has got the military patrolling these streets like we're in Afghanistan.

Mtcheeewww! (Hisses)
