remembered she had always felt protected and cherished by

And then she heard from within the man, the beat of his heart.
The heart beat on, steadily unconcerned about the damage to

happened. She heard what she needed to hear.
His heart beaten out the words that his mouth could no longer
say....
I love you, little girl … I love you, little girl … and she was
