A noise that he only heard Maria’s voice singing in, oh so much more Clearly that when he listened to the wind blow outside the window.

Tears simply flooded more. He didn’t dare speak. Didn’t dare to utter a word to break the noise.

It Hurts..

-He said simply. A hand slowly going up to cover his own mouth. Though. The bell worked. He couldn’t Help how he expressed it. He couldn’t Think of anything else. He couldn’t Say anything else.

It worked fairly well. Considering he Actually Admitted that.

A gentle thumb wiped at the flowing tears, some of her own falling down her cheeks.

“It’ll be okay. But only if you want it to be okay.”
