Happy birthday, my love. I hope you liked the present." It was him. "Oh shoot, I'd forgotten it was my birthday today," I whispered, but he heard me clearly. "This is why I tell you not to overwork," he tutted. "Why don't you take a break and come out for a while? I'll pick you up in an hour." His voice was so comforting, I couldn't resist his offer. I agreed, and then thanked him for his kind gesture.
