“You can be seen and not loved, or loved and not seen. Noah loved me and saw me. But more than that, he chose me. I couldn’t give him forever, even though he deserved it. I couldn’t keep him safe, even though I wanted to. But I could give him today. Tonight. And I would try to give him tomorrow, and every day after, for as long as I possibly could. It wasn’t enough for me, but it was enough for him.”

There was a metallic groan. Then the ringing, successive slam of thousands of pounds of iron fitting into frames. ''Oh my -'' Panting. Screaming. Interference and dust clouded my vision and the hiss and the rush of static filled my ears. White letters appeared in the darkness that arrenged themselves into the words FILE CORRUPTED. Then silence. The image on the screen went black. The scene in my mind went dark.
