The angel took the book from him, then went out the door and across the hall, where he knocked on the door "He's finished," the angel said to someone in the room
"What, you're leaving? I can just go?" asked Levi as called Biff
The door across the hall opened, and there stood another angel, this one see to have more a female aspect than Raziel She too held a book She stepped into the hall to reveal a woreen cotton blouse Her hair was long and straight, dark with reddish highlights, and her eyes were crystal blue and seelow in contrast to her dark skin
"Maggie," said Levi
"Hi, Biff"
"Maggie finished her Gospel weeks ago," said Raziel
"Really?"
The Magdalene smiled "Well, I didn't have as uys for sixteen years"
"Oh, right"
"It is the will of the Son that you two go out together into this neorld," said the feel
Levi went across the hall and took her in his aran to clear their throats and murmur "Get a room" under their breaths
They held each other at ar to be like it alas? You know, you're with , but it's only because you can't have Josh?"
"Of course"
"That's so pathetic"
"You don't want to be together?"
"No, I want to, it's just pathetic"
"I have ave me money"
"That's good"
"Go," said Raziel, losing his patience "Go, go, go Go away" He pointed down the hallway
They started walking down the hallway, arels every few steps, until at last they looked back and the angels were gone
"You should have stuck around," the Magdalene said
"I couldn't It hurt too much"
"He came back"
"I know, I read about it"
"He was sad because of what you had done"
"Yeah, so was I"
"The others were angry with you They said that you had the greatest reason to believe"
"That why they edited me out of their Gospels?"
"Good guess," she said
They stepped into the elevator and the Magdalene pushed the button for the lobby "By the way, it was Hallowed," she said
