For giving me four beautiful children and eleven years of partnership and patience when I'm being difficult." "Which is always," Samuel interjected. "Which is often," Riley corrected. "But thank you for loving me anyway." She raised her glass. "To forty. To getting older. To everything hurting but not caring because we're too busy living to worry about it." "To forty!" everyone echoed. Later that night, after everyone had gone home and the kids were asleep, Riley and Samuel sat in their bedroom. "How do you feel?" he asked. "Old. But also okay with being old."

I added. She cups my cheeks, "You're a very brilliant boy. I'm sure she had a reason why she couldn't come. I hope you're not mad at her. Listen to her, okay?" I answer her with a smile while I was nodding. I know she has a point and I should listen to Miranda too. The old man smiles at me and they thanked me before they begin to leave.

Taking a deep breath, Kyle added, "And I am so glad that we both are maturing together, showing signs of wisdom... And with that in mind, I worry not about getting old... Gaby, for as long as you are with me, I know that I will continue to be fulfilled." "For as we grow older, our love gets stronger. Our faith in each other builds deeper and our family grows happier." The man smiled again, appreciating Gabrielle's grins, and said, "And thus, Gaby, as I promised the last, ten years ago, I will continue to love you, care for you, support you and our children, regardless of the changes in us...

"Thank you for coming to my life and giving me another chance. Thanks a lot for bringing Anne to our life. I love you. And I'll love you till death. So let's grow old together. Let's laugh together, cry together. Let's have small fights between us sometimes. Let's share every moment of our life together." Crystal smiled and nodded as she planted a soft kiss on his neck. "I wanna grow old with you." Both of them rooted in that place, hugging each other without any intention of letting go. The sun peeked at them shyly and cast a glowing amber on the sky above them. The melody remained just like the river's water, soft, slowly. The breeze was fluttering their heart. They closed their eyes and f

"Add something to it. Something I haven't put there." I thought about this. "Growing old in this territory," I said. "Specifically growing old. Not the idea of it. The actual version. My hair going grey and your freckles multiplying and Nyx becoming insufferable in a completely new set of ways and the bond between us having accumulated sixty years of kept moments." I paused. "That is what I want to add." She looked at me across the sitting room with the fire between us and the bond carrying everything that could not be said with the precision it deserved.

You can see the gray and the lines and the specific beauty of two people who've aged together. That evening, I show the photograph to Dominic. "Look at us," I say. He looks at the photograph and he's quiet for a long time. "I see what you mean now," he says finally. "I see the beauty. I see the evidence of years. I see the proof that we made it." He reaches over and he takes my hand. "We're old," he says. "Yes," I agree. "We are. And it's beautiful." We sit in the living room holding hands and watching the photograph of ourselves. Two people who've aged together. Two people who chose each other for decades and kept choosing. Two people who look at each other and still see love even after all
