Every fine line near the corners of their eyes, every barely noticeable tilt of the head, spoke to the fact that tender words were no longer necessary; they were engaged in a silent yet passionate dialogue. Now, in this frozen second, the entire universe contracted to a single, inevitable event: the moment when this tension would be released by one long, long-awaited kiss.
