Sensing his breath on her skin, she was more than relieved.
She closed her eyes and let that stray drop of tear fall down. She didn't say a word and neither did he. They stood there all silently amidst the cool breeze, in each other's embrace.
She had no questions for him, nor he had any answers. All that was present was a mutual understanding and respect for each other, that needed no words to be conveyed. She didn't want him to say anything. His mere presence was comforting enough for her.
"I am done with hiding Akira. I will end this soon."
She turned back to look at him. His eyes were also moist and she knew that he had been hurting.
"Are you sure about it."
"I was never this sure about it Akira."
"What are you going to?"
"Whatever I am going to do, needs your help in achieving it."
"Anything for you Raymond, just say the word. But how did you come inside? No-one recognized you?"
