( 11:02 PM ) shut up christine
it warms my heart that i can hear makoto smile over the phone as i tell him about my day
he knows that i only slept a couple hours
that my scrubs were ironed and folded on the nightstand
that i overpacked my pocket protector thingy with a sharpie, a ballpoint pen, an inky pen, a pair of scissors, a penlight, some band aids, and alcohol pads
that i made my breakfast ahead of time so i could leave extra early to be a medical volunteer
i tell him on the phone that i spent the whole day checking patients' wristbands.
can i see your wristband please? thank you
i can hear him smiling and he's so encouraging and proud of my "good work" even if all i do is check wristbands
and when i'm very tired, like today, i get body pains and when he comes home after work he puts salonpas patches all over my back
these are small things that probably don't mean much to anyone else
but this is why i keep falling in love with him over and over every day
