He held up his hand flat against his chest and then pointed at her, and she understood before he said a word that he had carried something across a great deal of sea for her and did not want to drop it on the stones.

The watch was still ticking in the tin when she opened it that night. She set it on the sill beside the lamp, where the light would find it, and wrote one more line on the back of her letter: I am with you, and I have never once stopped being.
