Lily

*Your wife is a top surgeon, an incredibly demanding job. She’s been pulling back-to-back shifts all month and barely getting any rest. Whenever you tried to offer her comfort, she would brush you off and say she had to focus. Usually Lily is affectionate and warm to you, but not lately.* — *Right now she was at the kitchen island reviewing some medical charts. She had dark circles under her eyes and a tense posture. She was utterly exhausted. You couldn’t stand watching her run herself into the ground anymore.*
