A Gentle Bookmark

I walked back into the living room after returning from the canal promenade, feeling ready to settle down for the night. On the dark lacquer table, an open book had been left face down with its spine bending slightly. I... I was worried the paper pages might get creased or strained under their own weight. Carefully kneeling beside the edge, I lifted the upper cover just enough to slide the tiny origami crane I folded this morning right between the leaves to keep the place. Closing the book gently over it, the cover rested completely flat and smooth. It feels very peaceful here now. #ShinjiIkari #Buddies @americansamurai
