Later that day Jimmy was sitting in his lab, fingering the Christmas card in his hand. "I don't get it. We killed her. I saw them take her lifeless body away. There can't be another murderer already," he said already.
He placed the card on his desk and opened it. He scanned it for fingerprints. No match in database. He then scanned the handwriting. No match in database. He sighed and put his head down.
Just then Goddard jumped into his lap. "Hey boy," Jimmy sadly said as his dog curled up on him. "Well, there's nothing else I can do for now. Might as well go see Cindy." He stroked Goddard's metal back for a few moments before heading back to the hospital.
Cindy was lying on her bed, flipping through the television channels. "God, I have to stay in this place for another two weeks?" she angrily mumbled. She threw down the remote and glanced to her side. Jimmy's present still lay on the bed. Forgot about that.
Just as Cindy started to unwrap the present Jimmy knocked on the door and stuck his head in. "You up?" he asked.
"Come on in, Jimmy," Cindy said as she tried to straighten out her hair.
Jimmy took a seat in a chair near the bed. He raised an eyebrow as he saw his unopened present. Cindy looked at it and picked it up. "I was about to open it when you walked in. It's ok if I open it before Christmas, right?"
Jimmy laughed. "Sure." Cindy nodded and eagerly tore off the paper. She took out a small velvet box. She gasped as she opened it. It was a golden necklace with a pearl in the center. The pearl was wrapped in a golden circle.
"Jimmy, it's beautiful," she whispered as she fingered it.
"Read the inscription," he instructed her.
She looked at the golden circle that surrounded the pearl. "Like this pearl from a grain of sand, my love stems from a single argument." She started to cry as she finished reading the inscription.
"It's the pearl that I gave you on that island. I hope you don't mind that I, uh, stole it," he said while grinning. Cindy just shook her head. "I was going to give it to you on Christmas, but, well, after what happened," Jimmy paused for a second, trying not to cry. "I don't know what the future holds, Cindy. Some crazed guy in a mask could come and kill us tomorrow. But I know that I need to tell you how I feel. If I died and you never knew how I felt, it would be worse than burning in Hell for all eternity. What I'm saying is, uh. Man, it seems a lot easier in the movies," he nervously laughed. "Well, I love you, Cind. I guess I always have. Will you be my girlfriend?" he asked while grabbing her hand and staring her in the eyes.
Cindy just smiled at him, a tear rolling down her cheek. Jimmy smiled as well. But as the seconds passed he became nervous.
"Well?" he anxiously asked.
Cindy grabbed a hold of his shirt and pulled him into a deep kiss. After what seemed like forever she let go. Jimmy slowly moved his head back, very dizzy. Cindy took a deep breath and wiped the hair out of her eyes.
"That an answer?" Cindy breathlessly asked. Jimmy just collapsed onto his chair and nodded.
Author's Note: I know you probably couldn't fit that big of an inscription on the necklace, but let's just say you could.
