The night was growing late, and I found myself growing restless. Anticipation for the next day, when I would present Damon with my gift, kept me awake. As the frustration continued to simmer within me.

“Thank you Damon,” I let his name linger in my mouth as I gently placed the tiny box in my hand on the table.

“I hope you like your gift,” I added.

His flashy smile took over his crumpled one immediately.
