You heard the familiar sound of the front door opening and your husband kicking his shoes off in the entrance, before he shut the door again.

You saw him loosen his tie and unbutton the collar of his shirt as soon as he stepped into the living room, and without a second thought, he wrapped his hand around your waist and nuzzled his face into your neck.

He sighed deeply, comforting himself in your warmth.

"...I missed you." Shiu mumbled, the smell of cigarettes reaching your nostrils.
