"What? Why," I interjected concerned. Storming past me, entering my apartment.
"Well, first off, you disappeared last night and that's not like you. Then, well, pretty much that's it. I was scared something had happened to you, I had a weird feeling. Is that so wrong Fisher?"
"Babe, everything's cool, I just ran some errands last night, that's all. I'm sorry I scared you," I said calmly, as I reached for her hand hoping to comfort her. Interlacing our fingers, an immediate change of mood developed, with her realizing the drama was not worth it. A moment with nothing said, but said everything; she leaned towards me and landed a big kiss. Doing so, whispered in my ear,
"I love you." Speechless, I stood in shock, mainly because I wasn't expecting to hear such bold-brazen words. Actually, I had never said or heard those words from anyone other than family. Grabbing a seat next to one another on the bed, with my hands on her face, I peered into her eyes,
"I love you too," I said, feeling good and happily surprised. For the first time, I saw her glow, which was white. I recalled my glow being yellow. I thought to myself, 'what do these glows mean?' Meanwhile, she had started to cry,
"I never want to lose you again. I was worried that I had." she said, wiping her falling tears, causing my eyes to swell as well. By holding the back of her head, I moved my hand across the small of her back, and whispered into her ear,
"Never again, I will never leave you again, I promise."
