As she cleared security, she called me. She told me that she was comming to the windowed area near the arrival gate, thus making me rush there immediately. We sat there and stared at each other through the arrival gate for a few minutes. When her phone started dying, we hang up. I then yelled out, "I Love you!" and she responded, yelling as well, "I Love you, too!" A woman near me said, "Should I get this on camera?"

...for a little while...
