“Maybe she should cut the guy a little slack, [...] Maybe Thorne had been a no-show because something bad happened to him on the job.

What if he'd been injured in the line of duty and didn't come by as promised because he was incapacitated in some way? Maybe he hadn't called to apologize or to explain his absence because he physically couldn't.

“L'amour, tu vois, c'est comme l'oxygène, si on en manque trop longtemps on finit par en mourir. Tu m'as tellement aimée en quelques mois que j'ai eu des réserves d'amour pendant des années. Grâce à elles, j'ai pu affronter beaucoup de choses, mais j'arrive au bout de mes réserves, Martin.”

“She knew her husband would never stray, so highly did he value that which he’d waited nearly six thousand years to know, so precious was it to him: love. She knew he would be there with her until the very end, that he would cherish each wrinkle, every line in her face, because in the final analysis they were not a negation of life but an affirmation of a life well lived. Proof positive of laughter and tears, of joy and grief, of passion, of living.”
― Karen Marie Moning, The Immortal Highlander
