Nyctophilia

5 YEARS AGO "Will you marry me when I get back from Dubai?" I stared at the man who is now drying my hair. "Yes, of course." I smiled wholeheartedly but I felt tears building up because I knew very well that I didn’t want him to go but he needed to, I needed to let him go. His family's company is slowly falling apart because of a contract back in Dubai so he was needed there and he'll stay there until the company gets better. He estimated the time he would be there and said a minimum of 2 years. I just wish time would stop right here but it won't and I accepted that. I turned around to face him. "I'll wait for you," I said choking on my own words. I was already crying, I didn’t even notice my tears falling. "I promise to come back to you." He reassured me holding both of my cheeks in his hands and tilted my head for a kiss. I waited for five years but he still didn't come back to me. Where are you? Please... come back to me. ........... Nyctophilia - Love of darkness or night; Finding relaxation and comfort in the darkness.
