A Tale of two Hearts | Vera Bonny

I heard two rasp knocks on the door, I got up hesitant at first then made for the door. There he was, standing tall and smiling sweet. I mumbled a hello and let him into the room. He sat down on the bed as that was the only piece of furniture I had. I sat with him, then asked him if he was Hungary. He said he needed water to catch his breath and would like food much later. The way he said it made me ask if he ran all the way here and he smiled, literally confirming my question. I smiled back and got him chilled water, he took a sip and dropped it down then dipped his hands in his pocket.
