ANTHONY'S breath caught as he looked at Emmaline, a storm of emotions surging within him. He couldn't tear his eyes away from her. It was like seeing his late wife all over again. She looked healthy, vibrant. But what struck him most was the unmistakable happiness and contentment radiating within her.
The years they were apart had left him with a heavy regret, and now, standing in front of her, all he wanted was to reach out and somehow repair what had been broken. His heart hurt with the need to reconnect, to somehow rebuild the relationship they had lost. He didn't even notice that his eyes were now filled with a silent plea, hoping for a chance to heal the deep wounds between them.
