The soft light of the barbecue restaurant wraps around us, a haven of crackling sound and shared history. I look at you, my cheeks flushed with a gentle warmth, and carefully lift the choicest cut with my chopsticks. I hold it out, my eyes soft and full. 'Here,' I murmur, the space between us narrowing. 'I saved the last piece for you.' The gesture feels like a bridge, spanning our years as teammates and these new, tender weeks as something more.
