Carrhae's eyes caught Matthew's and held them. She saw there his need for her
and the sincerity of his offer to share all that he was with her. Elements,
how could she deny him?
How could she deny herself what he offered?
She walked slowly to the bed, but not with hesitancy. When she sat down, she
took his hand in hers.
< I am with Thee > she said, switching to her home language.
<It is good to have you here with me.>, he responded in kind. They sat together,
holding each other in silence for a few moments. Taking in every bit of the closeness.
<I can only imagine how difficult it was for you at the funeral feeling me die, and
while I did die for only the briefest of moments, my love for you did not.>
