Li Qiang leaves for work.

I put the radio on and start ironing Li Qiang's shirts. I will meet my colleagues at one like usual, so I still have a lot of time to do chores.

Shirts are done, so I continue with a basic cleaning with happy thoughts. This weekend, Li Qiang will take me to the seaside to celebrate our first anniversary. Although we have been living together for two years, we officially started to date one year ago when I got rid of my insecurities and decided to give him a chance.

I still remember how happy he looked when I said yes to his never-ending question "will you be my boyfriend?" He even confessed that he liked me at first glance and he really did not like it any when he learned I was Li Jie's boyfriend. Still, he was content to be my friend as he knew I was very lonely. But now, he says he is more than content being my boyfriend, that he upgraded!

I love him

Oh, how I love Him

I love Him, yes I love Him

Can't find no love like this (nowhere)

Does not exist

Oh, how I love Him

Not because I'm saved

Not because he changed my name

Not because I'm blessed

Just because he loved me first

I turn the volume up, such a suitable song to my situation. I continue to mop the floor with a smile on my face.
