Jasper Fforde stood on the roof of the skyscraper, his eyes fixed on the sunset in front of him. He could see the colors and the clouds, the beauty and the majesty. He could hear the sounds of the city and the birds, the peace and the tranquility. He could feel the warmth and the happiness, the sense of contentment and satisfaction.
He knew that this was it. This was the moment he had been waiting for. This was the moment he had been striving for. This was the moment he had been hoping for.
He looked at his girlfriend and fellow alien soldier, Sophia, and spoke, his voice tender and loving. "I'm sorry. I'm sorry for everything. I'm sorry for being stubborn. I'm sorry for being selfish. I'm sorry for being angry. I'm sorry for being hurt. I'm sorry for being lost. But I'm not lost anymore. I'm not lost because of you. I'm not lost because of your love. I'm not lost because of your patience. I'm not lost because of your understanding. I'm not lost because of you, Sophia. I'm found. I'm found because of you. I'm found because of your love. I'm found because of your patience. I'm found because of your understanding. I love you, Sophia. I love you so much. Thank you for saving me. Thank you for being my home. Thank you for being my family. Thank you for being my everything."
Sophia looked at him and then smiled, her eyes tearful and her voice choked. "Jasper, I love you too. I love you so much. I'm sorry too. I'm sorry for not understanding. I'm sorry for not trusting. I'm sorry for not being there. But I'm here now. I'm here now and I'm not going anywhere. I'm here now and I'm not letting go. I'm here now and I'm not giving up. I'm here now and I'm not leaving. I'm
here now and I'm never letting go of you. You're my home too. You're my family too. You're my everything too. I love you, Jasper. I love you so much. Thank you for loving me. Thank you for saving me. Thank you for being my home. Thank you for being my family. Thank you for being my everything."
They looked at each other and then kissed, their lips and hearts united. They knew that they had a long journey ahead. They knew that they had a lot to learn. They knew that they had a lot to grow.
But they also knew that they had each other. They knew that they had love. They knew that they had hope.
They knew that they had a future. They knew that they had a life. They knew that they had a world worth living for.
They held each other and smiled, their hearts full of joy and gratitude. They knew that they had finally found their place in the world. They knew that they had finally found their happiness. They knew that they had finally found their magic.
