A strong miss (China)

By our regular spot, I was blurting something trivial - caravans on the ancient Silk Road. Cute Li Yun turned to me and said she would miss me. I could have replied likewise.

Cute Li Yun categorised missing” into levels. A normal miss” was for times when we couldn’t meet for a day or two. A strong miss” applied when I was away for a few days. Now, after any months, I experience a crying miss.”
