Another Checkup - Part 1

Wednesday

On waking Anna felt an arm draped around her waist.  On opening her eyes and slightly turning she realised Hou Yi had returned from the business trip.  During the last discussion they had, he informed her that he was unlikely to be back until either late tonight or tomorrow.  The sneak, he returned home and slipped into bed without disturbing her.

Without him beside her it had been a difficult almost two weeks.  She struggled to drift off to sleep and talking and video calls were not enough to deal with how much she had missed him.  They could never substitute for his presence with her.  That was something she could not have predicted when the married.
