Re: The SAVIOUR
FINALE
”You are the first since my husband,” she muttered, feeling it needed to be said. I’ve wanted to do that for some time now, but I didn’t know if you did,” replied Peter. ”I’ve always considered you as my saviour, and it felt proper some how,” she said, kissing his cheek. ”If anyone was your saviour, it was your husband!” he stated. ”What do you mean?” said Jessica, looking at him.
”I have a confession to make Jessica, I knew your husband. I met him a few times when visiting my wife and it was he who suspected what you would do once he’d gone. So, he made me promise to watch over you, which is why I was there that night. I just happened to be in the hospital when your husband died, and I kept my word by following you.” ”Why didn’t you tell me all this?” she said, sitting up on her elbows. ”I was going to a few times, but I never counted on falling in love with you,” replied Peter, smiling. Jessica just looked up through the window and beyond the clouds, and then mouthed the words ‘thank you,’ to the heavens, before kissing Peter one more time.
As they kissed, she realised that what he’d said to her on that roof was true; you can brave the storm and find happiness again, for she knew she’d fallen in love.
