Evening,

Diary,

Richard’s going away to New York again, to take care of the company’s international customers. It’s different this time. I want to fall to my knees and clutch hold of his leg like little girls do to their fathers, and beg him not to go. I don’t want to be alone in this apartment.

‘It’s only for fifteen days,’ he said.

‘Fifteen days!’ I cried.

God knows what might happen in fifteen days!

He searched my face. I bet he could tell. ‘Is something the matter?’

I broke eye contact from him. ‘No...’

I don’t understand Richard sometimes. It’s like he lives in his own bubble and shuts me out. When he came in today, he laid on the sofa with his bloody newspaper. Not saying a word. As if I wasn’t even there. I don’t expect him to be chatty all the time, and he needs his own space, but lately, I don’t know, he seems troubled and distant. This fills me with anxiety and absolute dread. Is it work? Or does he suspect something and refuses to confront me about it because he fears he’ll lose me?
