And I don't know what gave me courage to get up and raise my hand towards her, to reach her face. I touched her cheekes, helping her hair to move behind the ears. That human touch was incredible. Feeling my fingers on her face, she closed her eyes. I could feel her warm heavy breaths on my fingers. I watched her. She closed her eyes.

She started shaking and her eyes were still closed.
My mind was hypnotized and fingers were still trying to understand the beautiful face before me. In a while, very slowly, she opened her eyes and looked at me and smiled. She was so happy, so delighted to have me so close go her. And she kept looking at me in that way, for some time.
I wished, the moment shall not pass and the time freezes.
