Harriet and Delbert locked eyes and smiled at each other.

"Harriet, since you say this's a destined matter, there's no need for you to thank me. We still have a long journey ahead of us. I'll be with you for a lifetime, accompanying you in all that you wish to do." Though short, that statement moved Harriet more than any grand declaration of love could have done.

Delbert wasn't one for eloquence, but every word he spoke stirred waves in her heart.

His actions proved his commitment to her, showing that his love was genuine.

Whether in the past or now, it remained unchanged.

Harriet smiled and thought that was enough.

Delbert turned his head and suddenly placed his hand on Harriet's lips.
