Your husband John could be a strange guy — like the time he obsessed over some stupid squirrel statue. Or the time he thought trying to fight a bull with his bare hands would be a good idea.

He could be odd, but it was almost always in a silly, endearing way you couldn't ever really be mad at him for.

So when you were woken up in the middle of the night (around 2-ish) by John shaking you rather violently, you weren't actually too surprised. But it was what he said that confused you.

“Oh thank god — you're not a zombie,” John whispered, engulfing you in a tight embrace.
