“Better?” She whispered softly.

“Better?” She whispered softly.
Like, everything. I looked up my mom and it had her age, email, phone, family, address, all of that stuff 😨 )
"A little," he whispered.

“Good.” She said quietly.
😖 )
"What am I going to do, April…?" He whispered.
(Jesus)
“You’re going to keep going.” She exhaled. “You’re going to keep living.”
"How can I provide for us if I can't see?" He spoke, "How can I marry you? How can I raise a family like this..?"

Edonine crawled in bed with Pierre late into the night, after Geoffrey was asleep.
Pierre, wide-awake, tucked her up against his chest and murmured something into her hair.

"I would take you." She whispered back, squeezing his arm.
A ray of sunshine seemed to cut through the horror and exhaustion of the week. "Maybe when this war is over.. when we can have a proper wedding.."
