He sat there listening letting her rest up against his side. I know it's hard especially for you. I want to free you from it, even if I could just take a little bit of the burden off of you and help ease your situation I would. I care for you a lot and all I want to do is see you smile and for you to be sincerly happy.
Howard continued to gently hold her hand noticing her struggling to return to a human appearance. He held her a bit closer and whispered to her quietly. Please don't force yourself. I'm here no matter what.
