âWe match.â I try to smile.
He wipes the tears away from under my eyes and holds my face in his hands. âI picked it to match your eyes. I was hoping you would be there.â
âIâve missed you,â I admit feeling relieved he hasnât completely given up on me.
âYou have no idea how much Iâve missed you.â He wipes a few more stray tears. I laugh a little, and he smiles. âThereâs that smile I love so much. I was watching you all day. You didnât look at me once.â
âIt was so hard.â
âThatâs what she said.â He winks, and I let out a real laugh this time.
