my dear

I wanted to hear from G. today, and I did. He texted to tell me they’d found the hiker who went missing, and he wanted to make sure I carried a phone when I hiked. Very sweet. He’s fighting a cold, and when I told him I hoped he felt better, he said ‘thank you my dear.’ I think it’s the first endearment he’s used with me, and it’s made me very happy.
