Surprise

After I published the post title "feeling upset", Miss had ignored all my texts, emails and basically terminated all manner of communication with me. I realised my error even before the silent treatment had started. The first 2 days of being ignored were absolutely torturous. On the second day I published another post "silence" wondering whether I would ever hear from again. In this post I also made an attempt at apologising to Miss and hoping for her forgiveness.

To my utter disappointment, I noticed that she had ignored this post too. I was left absolutely dejected and by the 4th day I had resigned myself to the fact that I had lost any chance of reconciling with her. Even so, I still maintained a slight glimmer of hope that she may find just a tiny bit of compassion to give me one more chance...but I wasn't holding my breath on it.

Throughout these days I would think of her and the conversations we had. Her sweet voice would play in my head wanting to hear it again. I deliberately avoided reading any or our text message and email exchanges as that would just compound my sad feelings of rejection.

This morning, I woke up to the phone ringing. It was from Miss!!! I jumped to answer it...to hear her voice again was just amazing. She politely asked if she woke me up. I told her that was not a bother by any means. I was just delighted to hear from her and listen to her voice again :)

As usual, the conversation was very short as she had to abruptly hang up. But this time I was still smiling on the other end. I quickly sent her a text message to thank her.

Me: Thanks for calling Miss. So nice to hear from you :)


Miss: Perhaps I was too harsh


Me: And I was a bit rash :)

After an almost unbearable week of her punishment I have learnt a very harsh lesson. I am very thankful to Miss for reconsidering my service to her. If she were standing before me I would be kneeling before her and kissing her feet in gratitude. But for now, this is the best I can do.
