Zenia gently held Vaughn's face between her palms. The trace of the tear was still visible on his face. Zenia wiped Vaughn's cheek gently, and she kissed the tip of his nose.
"What's wrong with you? You're scaring me. It's like you're saying goodbye…"
Vaughn held one of Zenia's hands and planted a kiss on it, "I'm just being anxious. That's all."
He hugged his wife tightly and kissed her hair. Vaughn did not have the heart to tell Zenia about his fears. He had a hunch that their mission wouldn't go well. He had already made up his mind to sacrifice himself to ensure Zenia's safety. At that moment, Tissuria did not matter anymore. He just wanted Zenia to return safely to Ishelon.
