Light in Negative Spaces
She watched him move through the dark of their underground compound and go to their special place. It was a warm pile of blankets in a secluded corner, away from everybody else, away from their work stations. But it was more than that. That spot-their spot-meant so much more to her.
It was a place of comfort, a warm body to lean up against. It was someone to talk to, someone to share her concerns and joys from the day with. It was Jonah.
Thera smiled fondly as she spoke his name in her mind, still watching as he settled on the blankets, waiting for her. She was hidden in the shadows by some pipes, sure that he couldn’t see her watching.
Jonah squirmed where he sat, appearing almost anxious as his deep brown eyes gazed this way and that, searching. He was so obviously searching for her, that Thera could feel her face light up, a warmth spreading through her entire being just knowing that he was looking forward to her arrival.
She watched him lean back with his knees bent up, trying to be relaxed when she still didn’t show her face. There was a noise nearby and he visibly perked up, a smile almost appearing on his scruffy face before his hopes were dashed when the noise didn’t produce her presence.
Thera felt bad now for the flicker of sadness she could see in his posture. Finally, she stepped out from the dark and smoothly walked toward him with a warm, friendly smile.
The affectionate grin on Jonah’s face made his eyes glint with unmasked joy as he straightened to greet her with a low, “Hey.”
“Hi.” Easily settling down beside him, Thera couldn’t wipe the smile off her face. She moved a little closer when he leaned back, and then silently rested her head on his shoulder, sighing contentedly when he put an arm around her.
“Good day?” he asked casually.
Thera craned her neck to look up at him, still smiling and enjoying his warmth and his presence. She nodded. “It is now.”
.Fin.
