Engraved in mind

In the serenade of the black night, Canillas followed Joanna's eyes to rest after she became calmed by his reassurance that he would not force her to give him the answer to his demand. 

He was asleep but awakened when he sensed a movement coming from one of his sides, yet he tried to keep his eyes closed, although he could grasp what it was.

Subsequently, he felt there was something tickling his arm, which indeed made him not able to play ignorant anymore.

Raising his other arm that he placed on top of his eyes, Canillas shifted his head to look in the direction in which the commotion came.

His wife, who had always kept her distance from him, was approaching him, coming closer to his side. But of course, it would not have happened if the room where they were settling in together was warm.
