Reunion

My heart skipped a beat at the sight of R. How I have missed him! We had already left for the funeral before he returned from his family visit.

Such an odd feeling, really. I was nervous and tingly and smiling, I couldn't stop smiling. He smiled down at me and hugged me so tight. Heady and breathless I leaned my head back and kissed him.

"Damn I'm glad you're back," he said, wrapping his arm about my shoulders, leading me into the foyer.

Thoughts of the evening ahead played in my mind. I was glad to be back as well.
