“It’s still good,” he says, interrupting.

“Yes, thanks, it’s still good. Will you let me have my moment?” He mimes zipping his lips and I continue. “But then you showed me who you are. Saul, you’re a good man, better than I deserve, and I want to live up to you every day just like you live up to me the best you can. And in that spirit, I want to give you this stupid thing, and I hope you like it.”

I hand him the box.

It’s unwrapped. He stares, eyebrows raised high. It’s green, satin, like a fancy high-end jewelry box. Except there’s only one symbol on the outside: A simple golden crown.

“You got me… a Rolex?” He flips open the lid. And then he gets it and bursts out laughing.

I grin right along with him. “It’s the same one I stole from you,” I tell him. “Well, not the exact same one, but the same kind, right?”

“Right,” he says, taking it out of the case and trying it on. “How the hell did you figure that out?”

“I looked at basically a million pictures of freaking watches until I recognized one. Did you know how many different kinds of Rolexes there are?”

“A million,” he agrees, twisting his wrist. It’s a little big and he’ll have to adjust it, but my heart immediately swells.

“I wanted to make amends and I figured, what better way than to give you back what I took away?”

“Baby, I’d gladly let you steal all my fucking watches if it means we’d end up together, but I love this. I love it so much, and I love you.”

“I love you too,” I say, pride filling me over a job well done. His reaction is exactly what I wanted, and I don’t mind one bit when he drags me toward him and kisses me.

Which lasts all of ten seconds before the baby starts crying.

“I’ll get it,” he says, moving to get up, but I push him back.

“No, you sit there and look at the watch and think about how I’m such a great wife, okay? I’ll take care of Dante.”

“You really are amazing,” he says as I head to the door. “You know that, right?”

I look back at him and smile. “No shit. I’m the best.”
