Conversation across the table

Her-"What are you looking for?"

Him-"What?"

Her-"You keep staring at me as if you're looking for something."

Him-"Maybe I am."

Her-"Well maybe I can help you find it."

Him-"My grandmother once told me if you look hard enough you'll see it. In their eyes. The expression on their faces. Deep into the soul. I was always a sucker for her superstitious ramblings."

Her-"Are you looking for it in me?"

Him-"Yes. I am."

Her-"Do you see it?"

Him-"I'm certain of it....and guess what."

Her-"What?"

Him-"I love you too."
