I keep reaching for the phone to call him

Dan Okafor · 9/5/2026

Something good happened at work today and my thumb was already on his name before I remembered. It's been four months. My mum says that part never fully stops, and honestly I'm not sure I want it to.

I still text him. Just short things. It helps and I've stopped apologising for it.

Your mum is right. That reflex is love, it just has nowhere to land now.

Four months is nothing. My hand still goes to the phone after three years, and I'm glad it does.
