Nope. I missed that one. Doh!

“You are very happy”, he says.

I hesitate. I mean to say, I’m not unhappy but ‘very happy’?

“Well, yes, I suppose so”, I reply.

“Now you are living together”

We are? I query in my head. But, nothing has changed. Why did he say that?

“I read your blog. He will be there all the time.”

Ah. It dawns on me. I feel stupid. I should have realised the significance of this. I did not. Maybe it was a seismic shift, after all? Hell, yes!

I can see the logic. It never even crossed my mind. But, of course.

He is going to take the dogs out every morning – except when he’s away or, maybe, if it is raining. To do that, he has to be there. To be there, he needs to sleep there ……. here …… in my flat.

So, we are, sort of, *whisper* living together!

Don’t say it loudly.

Of course, it will never be said. Like all things that he does, these things are kept within his head and not said. But the real significance of all this was only shown to me by Pietro – in the car park – as we were about to go home.

Thanks mate! I really hadn’t got it until that point.

  1. Wowwwwwwwwwww
    a significant shift :-)
    and I’m sooo happy but ** whisper** I won’t say it loudly.
    ps. sometimes things do not need to be “said” but just lived.

    • Of course, I have jumped the gun a little bit. I mean, all his stuff is in his flat which is not my flat. So I should probably have said – we are living together part-time!
      :-D

      Yes, but it really helps, for a stupid person like me, if things are actually said ;-)
