Giving and receiving

Elliot dropped by unexpectedly last night. He brought me a very lovely necklace. As he put it around my neck and hugged me I closed my eyes and got lost in the feeling for a few minutes. He told me not to ever doubt how much my friendship meant to him. I tried not to cry as I thanked him. After he told me Merry Christmas I decided to give him his gift.
"Here, it's not as meaningful as the necklace but I hope you like it. I was told it is great for Irish Coffee."
Thanks Caro, I love it.
