"Oh, I'm sure it's not your fault!"

"It is," Magda groaned.

"Don't say that. You loved Toby a lot, I can tell. I think he knew that, and that's all that matters."

"It didn't matter enough."

"Stop it. Don't blame yourself." She looked over at the open drawer that had his body on it. "Shall we say goodbye now?"

Shira nodded and walked over to the body by herself. She looked down at his pale, still face. He looked so peaceful, as if he had never felt any pain in his life. Shira bent down and kissed his forehead. She began to sing the words that he had sung to her so long ago:
Nothing's gonna harm you, Not while I'm around. Nothing's gonna harm you, no, sir. Not while I'm around.
Demons are prowling everywhere, nowadays. I'll send them howling, I don't care, I got ways.
No one's gonna hurt you, no one's gonna dare. Others can desert you, not to worry, Whistle I'll be there.
Demons'll charm you with a smile for a while, but in time, Nothing's gonna harm you, Not while I'm around...
A single tear rolled down Shira's cheek, and she kissed Toby again, this time on the lips. Sniffling quietly, she began to gently caress his cheek. Suddenly, a holy glow formed around the crown of Shira's head. She looked almost like a painting of a pregnant Virgin Mary.

The glow in itself burned slightly, and Magda pulled back with a small gasp.

Shira heard Magda's gasp and looked up. "What is it?"

"What? I- What are you talking about, mademoiselle? I'm not doing anything," she said, confused again.

Magda fled outside the room and knelt, sobbing.

Shira blinked and then looked back at Toby. She pushed a lock of hair out of his face.
"Goodbye, Toby," she whispered. "I love you so much. I always will." With that, she kissed his forehead one last time, stood up, and began to walk away.

Magda was still crumpled on the ground.
