His molten gold eyes were downcast. Winry wasn't sure what she should do. She sat down across from the young State Alchemist, pushing a mug of tea at him. He looked up, offering a smile of gratitude.
Winry sighed, wishing she knew what weighed on the boy's mind. At last, Ed spoke.
"I'm sorry." He said simply. "It got... broken."
He set the small box on the table.
Winry opened it. Inside was a brand-new (albeit cracked) self-winding watch.
"Ed, I love it! Don't worry, I can fix it better than new!"
"Happy Birthday."
She hugged him.
