I watched as Dante slowly ate his food. I figured Dante could keep these simple foods down. He was so skinny, I was worried not just for his health, but for his well being in general. What had they done to him in that horrible place? What had they really done? “Drink all the broth too, but not too fast.” I said.
“Yes mom.” Dante shook his head and sipped. I crossed my arms.
“I’m just…shut up.” I muttered.
“There, happy?” He asked as he put his bowl back down. I set the tray aside and smiled.
“I am.” I answered.
“Good.”
“Yeah.” It was feeling a little strange in the room. “I’m sorry, I just haven’t seen you in a while.” I apologized.
“It’s ok.”
“No it isn’t. We didn’t come quick enough.” I hook my head.
“Hey, I’m here now, right?” He said. I crawled up onto the bed and laid next to him. Cautiously I wrapped my arms around him and snuggled close to him.
“Yeah, you are.” I whispered. “And I’m here with you.”
“I’m so glad.” Dante hugged tighter. I kissed him softly and pulled away after a few moments.
“I like this feeling. It’s real.” I said. I flipped my leg over him and sat up so I was straddling Dante again. “I’m so sorry I didn’t come straight after you. But I’ll make it up to you, somehow.” I gave him a small kiss on his forehead.
