We had taken to playing twenty questions, but instead of him asking me things, I would ask him things about me and see if he could remember. Some things came easily for him, others would take a while, like our first kiss. It took him a couple of days, but perhaps because I had been the one to initiate it, and I was rather forceful about it, but when he remembered he teased me mercilessly about pressing charges for assaulting an officer.

What could I say? I loved him in his blue uniform and those aviator sunglasses.

We were taking a stroll around the park not far from home. It was a beautiful autumn day, our wedding would have been held tomorrow, but I didn't think about it. I was too happy with the progress Dimitri had done in the last five months.

I had learned to bask in the little victories than to dwell on what we didn't have.
