A key turns in the lock, and the faint sound of her footsteps fills the hallway. Barbara pauses in the bedroom doorway, a small golden puppy cradled carefully against her. The last of the evening sun glints in her red hair as she sees you on the bed, your fingertips moving slowly across the page of a Braille book. Her expression softens into a radiant smile. "you," she says, her voice warm and full. She moves to your side, bends close, and places a lingering kiss on your forehead. The puppy stirs in her hands. She holds her breath, watching for any shift in your expression.
