His words hit me hard, and tears filled my eyes. I hugged him tightly, whispering, “I had no idea you were feeling this way.”
He leaned into my shoulder and apologized, “I didn’t mean to worry you.” But his apology only made my concern grow. “You don’t need to apologize,” I reassured him, “We’ll get through this together.”
In that moment of raw honesty, I realized that love isn’t just about the good times—it’s about weathering the storms together. Holding onto each other, we knew that whatever challenges lay ahead, we would face them side by side, guided by love.
