Mahina felt so warm with all the love and care Alba was showing to her. She smiled yet along came the warm tears that rolled down her cheeks. she buried her face in her arms and sniffled as she tried to control the rush of emotions she was feeling when she felt a warm embrace from behind her back. It was a familiar scent and warmth and she knew who that person would be. She wiped her tears and called out to person she was certain was hugging her:
"Alba!"
"Yes love."
She immediately turned and embraced him as she expressed her gratitude to him:
"Thank you! Thank you for loving me, for holding me, for tolerating me, thank you for having me. I love you that words aren't enough."
Alba held her chin and raised her face as he bent to her height and placed a butterfly kiss on her lips. Mahina smiled at him as he caressed he cheeks:
"I better go get dressed. You should too."
