He walked into the apartment, noticing a noise coming from the living room. "Dani, I am home." He called to her, notifying her of his presence.
But, she did not respond as the sound remained consistent with the buzz coming from the tv screen. He walked towards her, discovering that she was sound asleep. She looked so peaceful, seeming to have no worries.
He remembered the last time he caught her talking in her sleep. He learned that she had dreamt of living with him in her ideal house. She could not wait to be married to him and create their home.
He knelt beside her, staring at her closed eyes. He could still remember the first time they were in this position. It was a memory in his mind that he would never forget.
He pushed the hair that slightly covered her eyes and then ran his hands through her slightly curly hair. He always loved the way it felt when it slid along his fingers, feeling its silky softness.
