A week later, I found a note slipped under my door. It was from Alex.
"Clara," it read, "I'm sorry. I've been a mess lately, and I've taken it out on you. I've been so focused on myself that I've forgotten what's important. You're what's important. I love you, and I don't want to lose you. Can we talk?"
My heart leaped with relief. I immediately texted him back, asking him to come over.
When he arrived, we talked for hours, laying everything out on the table. He confessed his fears about the future, his anxieties about his career, and his insecurities about our relationship. I shared my feelings of hurt, my fear of abandonment, and my need for reassurance.
We listened to each other, we apologized, and we reaffirmed our love and commitment. It was a difficult conversation, but it was also a necessary one. It brought us closer, it strengthened our bond, and it helped us to understand each other better.
We realized that our relationship, like flying, required constant adjustments, open communication, and a willingness to navigate the turbulence together.
