"I love you"

He never did say those words out loud. Maybe she heard them in a faint whisper in her hair in the middle of the night, or saw them in the twinkle of his eye when he came to visit, or perhaps felt them in the gentle breath of his kiss. But never out in the open, where she could hear him clearly.

And she was surprised. Did she expect to hear him say it? Perhaps, perhaps not. She wasn't sure what to expect. But more often than not, Mwu la Flaga did seem to be a man who let his actions speak for him.

As she stared at the blinding light in front of the bridge and pieces of debris flying everywhere, it was as if he finally said them, loud and clear. As if he shouted those words at the top of his lungs.

Yet, she couldn't stop the tears, or the pain of her heart breaking into pieces like the debris.
