wake up call

i knew that the partner went to bed in the wee hours of the morning to finish up his essay.
i'm not surprised at all when i received an sms from him saying to give him a wake up call.
caring so much for the partner,
not wanting him to be late for work which will ruin his reputation which will then affect his self-esteem,
i set my alarm an hour early just to wake him up.
i called him up.
he was still unconscious, in his dreamland.
he made noise.
i talked to him.
in response, i heard 10 mins.

10 mins later,
i called again.
i talk and talk and talk, just to irritate him.
still noise and i heard the 10 mins again.
ok lah,
i did what i was told again.

10 mins later,
i called.
like finally!
he talked but i wasn't sure whether he talked for the sake to stop me from calling again or he's really up up.

another 10 mins later,
i called him without being asked.
and my aim has been achieved.
he's up.

a while ago,
i told him,
when we have kids,
i will buy them water guns to shoot at him to wake him up.
he had a hearty laugh over the suggestion.
i think he agrees.

everytime when loneliness crept in,
i can't help it but to read the partner's sentimental smses and reminiscing the moments we both hold deeply.
those other times when he piggyback me 4 storey up.
the sing-a-long sessions in the car.
the feeding sessions.
the complaint sessions.
there was one which i can never forget.
we were arguing and out of sudden he cried.
never a guy cried for me.
that cry which tells me he's the one.
after that ugly argument,
he carried me, looked deep into my eyes and told me that i'm the one he's going to marry, the one who he wants to grow old with and the one who he wants to have kids with.
that moment was so pure and true,
that it didn't help me to stop crying.

honey,
hearing you laugh ease me,
especially that kiddish laugh of yours,
when you kept on giggling.
especially when i sang the wrong lyrics or a line faster!
every moment with you is priceless.
i thank the almighty god for letting me experience how wonderful love is.
and baby,
thanks for loving me with all your heart.
