Unappreciated

 

 

She’s sure he doesn’t notice what she does. She cooks and she cleans and he lets her. Rose wishes just once that he’d say something or act like he knew she was doing these little things just for him. It’s not that she minds it so much as she wants to know that it matters. Or maybe it’s that she wants to know that she matters. But he’s said it before. He doesn’t do domestic. And chores and compliments are as domestic as it comes. So the little note on her bed surprises her. All it says is, “Thank you.”

Bless him - I think he probably notices every single thing she does :)

I'm sure he notices. I'm just glad he also noticed that she'd like to be appreciated too.

Thank you. Yeah, it's these sweet and simple things that keep us from going on strike against the menfolk, isn't it?

I'm sure he's hyperaware of everything she does, every move she makes, every breath she breathes. Oh, yes.

[amberfocus.livejournal.com]

Oh, yes, he does. He's a smart man. He knows he's got a good thing with her.

[amberfocus.livejournal.com]

Pretty much. But he'll find it's worth it.
