“ From the bottom of my beating, bouncing heart, our bond isn’t going to blink in and out. Broken bonds aren’t back in-style, and the briar in our journey won’t bleed the bright blood fueling our blessed moments either— believe me.” he beseeched Raleena.

“ Don’t you dare aim to defeat me with sounds that echo like ballad balance, beseeching me with beckoning b’s are unbecoming of you. They dribble like a cacophony of bad babble. ” Raleena returned with a rupture. Endar attempted to capture the vibrating bbbbbb sound in order to dismantle her heart, but the attempts failed.

“ Beware, dear wife, might my b’s better bounce along your bondice and end up across the hemmed bend near your breasts! Better to bounce along like a bonded baboon, then to babble badly. ”

She paused and stared Endar down, “You are babbling badly,” She sighed and was about to—

“ba-BOOM!” Endar interrupted.

“ But of course your animal-like nature had to emerge for us to recognize the baffling bombardment you beset upon my heart,” Raleena smiled at the sight of Endar mimicking a baboon.

“ Broken. Blighted. Not Brighted. Blighted, ” Endar now somber slunk down in his chair across from Raleena. The fire from the hearth crackled and flicked sparks.

“ Aww, don’t be like that Endar, ” Raleena attempted to coo him into ensconce.

“ But why Raleena? ”

“ Because you’re better than a bat baffling at bad baboon mannerisms. Because before you beseeched my brightness you requested nothing but blessed moments—because being somber isn’t meant for you, not meant for us.” Raleena lend over towards Endar's armchair reaching out towards her beloved husband. Her fingers undulated as they tickled the air near him.

“ Better to be a broken baboon bad-booming braking then, "The bee’s in the room began to settle down as the king of the fire got up to give his wife Raleena a kiss.

The kiss caused magic from the fabric that held the vibrating bbbbb-reality together as Endar made the Buh sound when his lips met Raleena’s.

Raleena pulled away from the vibrating kiss and gave a smile at her husband. She followed with her own long buuuhhh sound. “buuuuut—don’t stop dear husband.”

Endar whisked up another kiss from the vibrating cook book set inside his beseeching heart. “ Bonded to you, like a bee braving the briar of the garden. "Another kiss landed quickly upon Raleena.

Yet, Endar pulled away, a pout emerged again from Raleena—again. Again he pulled away, “All because I called your ballad of balance bad babble?”
