Andrea sat on her bed, scrolling through her phone. She was staring at the pictures of her and Michael, and she couldn't help but feel a sense of longing for him. They had been in a long-distance relationship for three months now, and Andrea missed Michael terribly. It was starting to take a toll on their relationship, and she wasn't sure how much longer they could go on like this.
She thought back to when they first met. It was two years ago when Andrea was studying abroad in Europe. Michael was a local, and they fell in love almost instantly. They spent every moment together, exploring new places, trying new foods, and simply enjoying each other's company.
But when it was time for Andrea to return home, they had to face the harsh reality of a long-distance relationship. They both knew it wouldn't be easy, but they were determined to make it work. However, as time went by, it became harder and harder to keep in touch. The time difference and their busy schedules made it difficult to find time to talk, and the distance seemed to only make their hearts ache more.
Andrea longed for Michael's smile, his laugh, and his touch. Even just hearing his voice over the phone would make her day. She missed being in Europe with him, feeling his arms wrapped around her, and getting lost in the moment once again.
As she looked through their old photos together, she couldn't help but cry. She missed him more than anything in the world, and it hurt her deeply knowing that he was so far away. She knew that Michael felt the same way, but it didn't make the pain any easier to bear.
Just then, her phone rang, breaking her out of her thoughts. She saw that it was Michael calling, and her heart skipped a beat as she answered.
"Hi, my love," Michael said, "I miss you so much."
Tears welled up in Andrea's eyes as she replied, "I miss you too, Michael. I wish we could be together right now."
"I know," he said, "but we'll be together soon. I promise."
They talked for hours, catching up on each other's lives and making plans for their next visit. Even though they were still separated by distance, they found comfort in knowing that their love was strong enough to overcome it.
As Andrea hung up the phone, she felt a sense of hope. She knew that they had a long road ahead of them, but with love and determination, anything was possible. She missed Michael terribly, but she knew that their love would bring them back together soon. She went to bed that night with a smile on her face, knowing that no matter what, Michael was always in her heart.
