There were tears in her eyes.
Tears of happiness, tears of joy. Tears of knowing that someone in the world loves you so much that you had no idea about it. As she listened to him speak, her throat got all choked for there were no words with her that she could have used to tell how blessed she was feeling at that moment.
The man of few words was churning words after words in front of his team-mates for her. She couldn't have asked for more.
As he walked back to his seat and sat next to her, she kept looking at him.
"What?"
He asked softly.
"Nothing", she said shaking her head.
She then extended her hand under the table and twined her fingers with his, and said.
"I am happy. Really really happy".
He just heard her and didn't say a word. He gently pressed her hand back, transferring all the warmth of his body to hers. That was enough to make her understand how he felt.
