If you love me, you'll say yes.

She was crying when he walked into her bedroom. He asked hey why she was crying, she didn't say. He asked her again and she sighed, but didn't say. He tried to touch her, but she wouldn't let him. He sat down in front of her, he held her knees the way she was holding them, he licked her tears as they came down in showers from her eyes.

She cried until she had no tears left. She couldn't talk, she wanted to tell him, but she couldn't. She tried to speak, but her voice was gone.

He just watched her. Licking her tears as they ran down her face, not saying a word.

And then he picked her up and carried her. Through her house and into her car. He buckled her up into the front seat and drove her to the highest point he could find, where she could see everything, where she was on top of her world...

And then he closed her eyes and turned her toward a light.

When she opened them, she was flustered by the brightness, the glare made her eyes water. But her tears had dried.

"Why are we here?" She asked.
"I am giving you the sun." He said.

And he did, he gave her the sun.

So she smiled her silly crooked smile, wrapped her arms around him and stared into the gift he's given her.

The sun.
