She left the room for a moment, returning with the puzzle box she had made for their anniversary. "Remember this?" she asked, kneeling down next to him.
Her fingers brushed over the gems in the box as they slid up in the holes. "I love you," she said after a minute, looking up at him.
She paused, studying him intently, her light eyes drifting over the bridge of his nose thoughtfully. She paused before realizing that she was staring, looking back down at the box embarrassedly.
She was quiet for a moment before kissing his cheek lightly, her nose brushing his temple. "We'll make it through this," she murmured quietly in his ear. "We'll manage."
She pursed her lips, her gaze flickering to his lips momentarily, and her brow furrowed. Her eyes darted up to meet his.
