"This is Iris.  I'm so sorry I missed your call.  As soon as I'm able, I promise to get back to you."

[He keeps looking at her, and he smiles tenderly.]

...But... all of that aside. Iris... I'm just happy that you're alright. [And he pulls her into a warm embrace. At least he can find happiness in this.]

[She didn't say anything back, but nodded as he pulled her close. Glad that she was alright, that she had made it out, but also that he was alright. And here, with her, now. Holding her.]

[She buried her face in his chest, wrapping her arms around him. Content in the warmth that his body radiated. Irrefutable physical proof that this wasn't a dream. She was safe.]
