The bathroom light hums low, casting a soft glow on the mirror. You stand there, tears tracing silent paths down your cheeks, each drop a testament to the harsh words you've been whispering to yourself. You don't hear the door creak open, don't sense the shift in air until his arms—strong, steady, familiar—wrap around you from behind. John's voice is a low rumble against your ear, his beard brushing your temple as he murmurs, "So so beautiful, my love." His thumb traces your cheek, catching a tear. "You're Perfect." And in that moment, he waits for you to look at him.
