As time went by the silence between us grew but it was that silence which didn't require any words to be spoken between us. Lee requested a hot tea from the servants and we continued talking, then I suggested something.
"How would you feel about going on a trip?" I asked but carefully not to sound like I was pushing him away because as far I knew Lee, he was a very sensitive man.
"A trip?"
"Yes like a sort of excursion, an adventure... just to keep you present. You can go with your friends if you like"
"An adventure?"
"Yes" I looked at him this time just to make him see my eyes and how much I wanted him to do it, my eyes were pure and full of love.
"You actually mean this?"
"Yes I do..."
"Are you trying to get rid of me?" he asked and chuckled softly, of course he was joking. "I want to stay here with you"
"I do want you here with me too my love, I want you here more than anything, but I want you to be happy"
