Today is my birthday. This morning I drove Mayu to her work. I was playing “Shine” by Slowdive on the stereo. When I stopped at a red light and looked back at her (she’s still too scared to sit in the front seat with me after she was hit by a car 4 years ago), I looked back at her and she smiled in a way that the age on her face seemed to disappear, and it felt like I was looking at Mayu from over 20 years ago, when we were newlyweds. It was like a time slip moment. I wish I could have frozen time then to sustain the moment. I love her now more these days than I have in many years. She wished me a happy birthday. I love you, Mayu.
Random crap.
