Hours went by since he last saw his beloved wife. He stayed by the window to see if she was coming home. Aoshi would always stay by the window when Misao went out to the market alone. He would go with her but she insisted that he stay home and finish the paper work. When Aoshi was finished he stayed by the window trying to read his book, which he held backwards.
Okina was about to enter Aoshi's room but decided against it since he could sense that Aoshi was in deep thought. As Okina walked away, "Young love part two."
So that's what would happen every so often Misao would go into the market alone leaving her husband to have some time alone. Still even if Aoshi was left alone he insisted that he wait for her by the window.
It was like Aoshi's couldn't do anything unless Misao was near him. 'I never knew I was so clingy.' He thought to himself. Near the end of the afternoon there were still a lot of people around but Aoshi managed to see his wife in the crowd. 'It's her.' He was very tempted to open the window and jump out but decided against it, he would wait for her to come in.
That night…
Aoshi was lying bed waiting for his wife to come in. When Misao entered the room and shut the door behind her, she smiled slightly at her husband. Then she went to the corner and started on her sewing. He waited for her to join him.
Aoshi was starting to get impatient. "Misao isn't it time for bed? You can finish that tomorrow." He asked her gently. But what he really meant was, 'Come to bed. I miss you.' Misao looked at him through the side of her face, "Yes, in a minute. No need to wait for me, you can sleep if you want." Misao turned back to her sewing.
Aoshi got out of bed and sat down next to her. "You know I can't sleep without you by my side. Now are you going to make me beg?" Misao started to giggle slightly. "I wouldn't…make you beg…that much." Then she started to laugh again.
Aoshi took his laughing wife in his arms and hugged her. Misao stopped giggling and looked into his eyes, "You know I love just being like this."
"This?"
Misao hugged him again, "Yeah just us being together like this." Misao closed her eyes and puckered her lips waiting for her husband.
When it was over Misao looked her husband shocked. "What was that?" Aoshi's lip turned up into a small smile. "I didn't see you all day that's all." He stroked her hair gently.
"So in other words you missed me." Misao smiled at him triumphantly, as if she cracked his code. Aoshi continued to stroke her hair, "Aa, I missed you." She threw her arms around her husband, "Me too."
She continued to speak, "But you know it's important to be able to function without me." Misao wondered why her husband didn't stay anything, she looked her eyes to his face but he was already snoring. She snuggled closer to him and fell asleep.
