I stare into the flame. There’s something satisfying in the way She dances. The way She’s reflected by all these mirrors around me. If I gave Her a name, She’d certainly be something between Christie and Lucy. But I don’t, for in some cases a name makes it harder. I don’t want it to be hard, this final, this ending. I want it to be nice and soft, like a train that guides Her to a better place, through corn fields, shimmering golden in the light of the sunset, through small villages and great cities, where She will be happy. I breath in. A blow.
Total darkness.
