"Now it's up to you. You do what you think best. I hope...well, I hope you seek out the truth. But I made a promise and I won't be bothering you again. Thank you for calling."
I hung up and leaned back in my chair. I reached into a left-hand drawer and pulled out an IPOD I'd bought for Kelly before her then-current boyfriend had bought an identical one for her. I'd kept it and put a few tunes on it that I liked. I leaned back in the chair, closed my eyes and listened to the words of a tune I liked.
And as the last words rang in my ears, "If tomorrow never comes..." I thanked Father Dunleavy again for reminding me of what is important in this life. If I died today, the two people I loved the most would never question my love for them. In spite of all the crap I had waded through over the past four months, that made it all worthwhile.
