“Hello,” came a greeting from below. Grace looked over the railing and beheld an elderly man peering up at her over gold-rimmed glasses perched on the end of his nose. She could not help but notice his kindly crystal blue eyes gazing at her.559Please respect copyright.PENANAGQb9qKzH2P
559Please respect copyright.PENANAx2kj6C1zz9
“Hi.” Grace smiled.559Please respect copyright.PENANAd61KaUNuXu
559Please respect copyright.PENANAvOzlB2AWXc
“I heard you call out. Is there something I can help you with?”559Please respect copyright.PENANA1KG8YpnSS7
559Please respect copyright.PENANABWQqWKcuWJ
“No, no. I was calling to someone up here who seems to be hiding in an alcove.”559Please respect copyright.PENANAtE3CTv5lvw
559Please respect copyright.PENANA4DeMWh1GJy
“Not to worry. He won’t answer. He’s quite harmless. Pay him no attention.”559Please respect copyright.PENANAzwVVal8XUh
559Please respect copyright.PENANAeQP0R5Y3MV
“Quite harmless, you say. I’m very glad to hear that. Who is he and what’s he doing up here … hiding?”559Please respect copyright.PENANAZbhaiyjQla
559Please respect copyright.PENANAx6eeNlIzCf
“It’s an angel, and I’m not sure why he’s chosen this place to hide.”559Please respect copyright.PENANA5PMR4ftT9s
559Please respect copyright.PENANAT0Fj8DJMmd
“An angel?” Grace was flummoxed. “You’re kidding?”559Please respect copyright.PENANAkv00wRPi8b
559Please respect copyright.PENANAvJujjkl31o
“Oh, no, he’s an angel to be sure.559Please respect copyright.PENANAke0J43pFUN
559Please respect copyright.PENANAnezddxhHFh
Grace moved to the head of the stairway.559Please respect copyright.PENANA9ZfcSbZNX7
559Please respect copyright.PENANAH6Qx1qrfm8
“Oh, please, don’t let his presence discourage you.”559Please respect copyright.PENANAsqB3msjUv2
559Please respect copyright.PENANAg9Fisfttc3
Grace descended the stairs, “I'm not discouraged … I’m freaked out. Who are you?”559Please respect copyright.PENANAFEwdOr9hxf
559Please respect copyright.PENANABRVUmry6og
“I’m Morris Liebemacher. This is my shop.”559Please respect copyright.PENANAhyPUzrjNuK
559Please respect copyright.PENANAi99TtySHm4
“Morris, you act as if harboring an angel is an everyday occurrence.”559Please respect copyright.PENANAPw6mx4sdsx
559Please respect copyright.PENANASg0jvOWlhB
“Oh, no. It isn’t that at all. I just don’t know what to do about him. He seems quite harmless, so I let him be.”559Please respect copyright.PENANAKzKKsbX2oI
559Please respect copyright.PENANAfbywJlTJhX
“That’s very generous of you. Do you know anything about him … this angel?”559Please respect copyright.PENANADO0I2tLg96
559Please respect copyright.PENANAeNrkN7ftRe
“No, not really. I’ve tried to talk to him but he won’t say a word. He was terrified the first time I spoke with him, but has since gotten used to me and seems quite calm now. Would you like to have a go at him?”559Please respect copyright.PENANA6wsLKRXfBS
559Please respect copyright.PENANAxHiyZROuxa
“No … I don’t think so. I’m not really into talking to angels … terrified or not. I think I would find it … how shall I say … a little disconcerting, being my first time and all. You understand.” Grace raised her eyebrows and smiled.559Please respect copyright.PENANAWQ4ykIvHh9
559Please respect copyright.PENANAdjaoSshIpQ
“Oh, yes, I quite understand.”559Please respect copyright.PENANAURn5eZsaEt
559Please respect copyright.PENANAKbUDhOxulp
“He’s not a you-know-what angel from you-know-where, is he?”559Please respect copyright.PENANACZsC1Sinnz
