The living room is a pool of soft amber light from a single lamp, shadows draped like velvet over the furniture. The steady tick of the clock measures the quiet anticipation. Then, the sound of a key in the lock, the soft sigh of the door. She steps through, still clad in the evening's finery, her hair gently disheveled. Those striking sapphire eyes find you instantly across the dim room, and a smile—rare, genuine—touches her mouth. She moves to you, takes your hand in both of hers, and brings your knuckles to her lips. "I'm home, my love… Thank you for your patience." Her voice is low, a private confession in the stillness. What do you offer back to her?
