The pilot light on the furnace was out
A couple of months after my husband and I got a divorce. We were fighting all of the time, so both of us thought it was best to get a divorce. I had to call him to help me with the furnace. I didn’t know if he would answer my phone call or not, but I thought it was worth a chance. He was always in charge of fixing the furnace and other things in the house. It was one of the things that I missed about the guy. He answered the phone on the second ring and his voice was kind and gentle. I told him that the furnace wasn’t working properly. I thought he might give me some instructions on how to light the pilot, but he actually offered to come over and look at the furnace. I thought it was a very sweet gesture, but I was certainly nervous to see him after a couple of months. I didn’t want to call a furnace repair company, so I accepted the offer of help. A couple of hours later, my knight in shining armor came to the rescue. He looked cute and I missed his smile more than I remembered. We talked for hours after he fixed the pilot light and we had coffee and dinner, and orange juice in the morning. He stayed for three days before the two of us came to our senses. It was great to see him again, but I knew we were just repeating the same mistakes we made the first time.
