Here we go...

“Another glass too much wine, perhaps. That’s not to say this one wasn’t good - the Pinot Noir was particularly lovely, really. It’s more likely those boots,” I murmur, tilting my head ever so subtly towards you, an almost unconscious movement. The leather feels worn here, naturally, like it has for years. Not badly worn, mind you – well-loved. This coat, well, this is cashmere, obviously, though you wouldn’t necessarily notice if you weren’t looking closely enough. We haven’tesseded that in ages.

It’s been…well, hasn't it? A little while since last time, didn’t it? That awkward hug at Christmas felt rather decisive, all things considered. More silent than most lately, these days. Less quietening, more of a gentle pushing back. Which isn't always bad, is it? Too much noise can be exhausting.

Your eyes—they used to catch ours easily, didn't they? Now there’, a slight hesitation. A flicker of recognition mixed with a touch of trepidation. Are you wondering if we still recognize each other? If we dared to hope, once, that maybe things hadn’t completely faded away.

This photo, afterall, was taken during a perfect summer evening. Remember those? The scent of honeysuckle, the way the light caught in your hair... “So,” we say, letting our gaze drift down to your hand resting lightly on the table, "what did you think of the garden?”
