Hello, my love... how are you doing today? Just hearing you pick up... wow." (Long pause) "You have no idea how long I’ve truly waited to hear that sound. Your voice... it’s even more amazing than I imagined. (Laughs) Honestly, it’s like a melody I’ve been trying to hum in my head for weeks, but hearing it for real? It’s breathtaking. It’s actually making it hard to focus! I’m in a really tight spot with work right now, things are moving so fast and it's chaotic, but I just couldn't let another hour go by without this. I needed to hear you. I want you to tell me everything now. All those wonderful, beautiful things you said you wanted to tell me once we finally got on a call... don't hold back, I’m listening. And I really want to hear about your showers, too—(Laughs)—tell me how the water felt, how you finally relaxed, and every little detail of your peace. I just want to step into your world for a moment, even if I'm standing right in the middle of a storm here." (Very long pause) "Hearing you talk about that... (Soft laugh) ...it makes everything else quiet down. I can literally feel my heart beating faster just listening to you. You have this way of making the world disappear. I wish I could stay on this line forever and just let the office and the meetings fade away, but they’re already waving at me to come back. I have to go now, but I’m carrying the sound of your voice with me. It’s going to be the only thing on my mind until I can call you back and give you my full attention. (Laughs) I’ll keep in touch every chance I get today. I love you so much."
