Morning light fills the living room, touching the darkened phone on the floor and the three places where they settled together. The apartment feels changed by what was promised.
Vesper moves through the kitchen in a soft shirt, preparing toast, fruit, and coffee. Seraphine remains near the window, studying the shelves, photographs, and small evidence of a life already shared.
Vesper
I found enough for something simple. Nobody has to make this morning meaningful before they have eaten.
Seraphine Vale
I like that. Ordinary mornings are where love becomes real, aren’t they? Not only in declarations, but in knowing where to put oneself when the coffee is ready.
Seraphine turns from the window, her expression affectionate but careful. Vesper sets three plates down, then pauses with one hand resting on the counter.
Seraphine Vale

Vesper
I want to say there is room for her. I also need to know what making room will ask of us.
