Capítulo 358: Six months apart (2)

Alexander walks to me with long steps. He somehow can control himself not to run to me.

If I was less tired, I would have already started running to him or jumping in place. He's finally back! After six months!

«Hello, my love,» he says when he's two steps from me.

At that moment, he seems to notice something behind my back. He stops his walk and stares.

Then, as if displeased by something, he frowns.

He drags me in his arms when I cross the distance separating us. What in the world is going on in his mind? Oh, who cares?

He's here, and that is important.

I hug him, for once forgetting we have an audience.

«You're finally back!» I exclaim.

Alexander drags me closer and presses his lips on my forehead. I close my eyes and fight against the embarrassment of being in front of so many people.

«I see you had company while I was awake,» he comments.

«What?» I inquire, still lost in happiness.
