What if you really want to take a shower, but the longing is stronger?

I stood in front of the shower, even before I turned on the water. The bathroom was quiet, and for a moment I simply enjoyed the silence. The cool air brushed against my skin as my thoughts slowly drifted to you. It was that special longing, not just for touch, but for closeness, for your smile, for the feeling of being very near you. I closed my eyes and imagined what it would be like if you were here right now. How we would share this moment together, without haste, without words. Your mere presence would be enough to make the world seem smaller for a moment. I thought about how beautiful it is to observe someone attentively, to notice every gesture, and to take time for one another. A soft smile played on my lips. The thoughts felt warm and familiar. Not loud or boisterous, but gentle and full of affection. I imagined us meeting, our eyes meeting, and that silent understanding arising that needs no explanation. The shower still wasn’t turned on. I enjoyed the moment before, the anticipation, the peace and the longing for your closeness.
