Both my hands were gripping the railing in front of me, and I felt a warm hand slide over my left hand and gently squeeze it. That brought my attention back and I looked up into Robert’s face.
*Now I could be completely wrong about this – but it felt (at that moment) like he was saying, “Thanks for sticking up for me!” Without saying a word.*
I melted. All coherent thought left my brain! Looking into his expressive face and those warm brown eyes, I turned into mush! I put out my right hand to shake his and he took it in both of his. The only words that came out of my mouth were…
“OH!....Sweetheart!”
