Jessica quickly slid into the waiting car parked in front of the house. But before the door shut completely, she turned her head and looked up at the window of their bedroom. As expected, Davis was sitting there, watching her leave. A smile tugged at her lips. She raised her hand and blew him a kiss, her heart swelling with warmth.
It felt really good. This sense of being cared for, of knowing someone was waiting for her to return. She had been alone for so long that even the smallest act of affection from Davis touched her deeply.
Just as the car began to move, her phone vibrated with a message. She opened it and saw Davis's name pop up on the screen.
"Babe, have a nice day and come home quick. The house feels so empty without you."
Jessica shook her head lightly, her heart fluttered at his words and she let out a soft sigh. She could already imagine his serious face when he typed out the message. A smiled crept up her lips.
