In Heaven
Tess couldn't believe Sam, after all the fussing from him, here he helps Monica and Andrew, So she screams at him.
"? After all you put me through, You go behind my back and help them. When you know I want to do the same thing? So tell me Sam why?"
"Because You're were right, they need our help, sometimes angels like Monica and Andrew needs help, and I am sorry Tess, but I help Andrew find Monica, look."
Tess looks at the seeing cloud to see, Andrew taking lifeless Monica home, concern now more than asked, "What happen? Why does Monica look so lifeless? Oh my poor Angel Gurl."
Sam told Tess, "Monica, lets just say, she was quiet fond of Irish Coffee."
"Monica, and her coffee, jeez Angel Gurl, what were you thinking?" Then she told Sam, " I have to get down there now."
"Alright lets go." Sam agreed
Tess and Sam about to beamed themselves down to Earth they were stop by the voice of the almighty God.
"Wait my Angels."
Tess told their Lord, "But heavenly Lord we need to go, Monica and Andrew need our help. Monica is . . . "
"Don't worry Tess, Monica is fine as she perfectly safe in a dreaming state as I have special angel taking care of her, along with Andrew, but Tess' you need to realize that you must have patience. As I have a message for you to send to Andrew to Give to Monica."
"A message? What Message? My lord." Sam asked
"A message that will bring love and companionship for Monica and Andrew to open to their hearts to another. All you need to do is tell Andrew to tell Monica the truth of his last assignment and tell him to give Monica this tape"
The lord hands Tess the cassette tape. And the lord told them, "Then come back here and let Andrew do the rest as it's up to him to reveal the truth. Just make sure that both of you Andrew understand that is time to longer be afraid to open his heart to Monica. Now go my Angels, as I don't worry I will be here watching over you."
Without so much as another word, Tess and Sam beamed themselves down to earth, to make sure Monica and Andrew get God's message.
On Earth:
Andrew lay the dreaming Monica down on her bed as he looked at her, memorized by her sleeping beauty. Andrew sighed as he realizes he needs to be here for Monica to be there for her no matter what weather she like it or not. So went to the bathroom to get warm wet to help Monica awake from her snoozing slumber. He returned to the bathroom he startles as he voice say,
"How's my Misses and Mr. Angel Wings?"
He turned starling to see that Sam and Tess were standing behind watching over him and Monica as said, "Tess? What are you doing here? I thought you were retired."
"Angel baby, Tess never retires from doing God's work." Tess as she went to Monica's bedside she asked Andrew, "So how is she?"
Andrew stood by behind Tess both them looking at Monica, Andrew told Tess, "She passed out, but I believe she is dreaming now."
Sam said, "Then good, everything is going according to plan?"
Andrew wondering what Sam meant by that, "What you mean? Everything going according to plan? What going on here? What happening to Monica? " Andrew pleaded to Sam to answer his questions.
Sam said, "One question at a time, Andrew, don't worry Monica fine, she has special angel looking out for her in her dreams that will guide her back home. "
Tess went over to Andrew added, "Sam is right, our Angel girl is in good hands, but right now Sam and I have a message for you."
"Message, from God?" Andrew asked
"Yes, Andrew Baby, God, wants you to know. It's time to reveal the truth to Monica. About your last assignment."
Andrew confused, "Why my last assignment? What does that to do with Monica and me?"
Tess looked at Sam and told him, "Show him Sam."
Sam when to Monica 's bed stand, and handed Andrew a picture, as Sam asked Andrew,
"Do you know this woman beside Monica?"
"Yes, that is Alexis, my last assignment, she died of HIV. But why is does Monica have pictures of her."
Tess put a hand on Andrew's shoulder and sighed, "Baby, Alexis is short for Alexandra."
"What? No, you mean Alexandra was Alexis. Monica doesn't know that she is gone. Oh no." Andrew sighed as he knew he needs to give Monica such bad news, about a person who has changed her life so greatly.
Andrew sighed and asked, "How I am going to tell her. Monica is going to be heartbroken."
Tess told Andrew, "Yes she will be at first, but that is why you are here to help her, and its up weather you tell or not Andrew, but please make sure you give her this tape, it will explain everything."
Tess handed Andrew the cassette and once he held he knew it exactly what is was, it was tape Alexis had given to him before she died.
" I will make sure Monica knows the truth tonight." Andrew tells Tess
Tess lends in gave Andrew a kiss on the head for good luck and said, "That's my Angel boy, and don't be afraid to tell my angel gurl how you feel about her, because I believe my angel gurl feels the same way."
Andrew smiled, as that was good to hear that from Tess. "Thanks Tess. That means a lot coming from you."
Tess smiles at him, "No problem, baby. "
Then Andrew and Tess pull each other into a hug, Sam hated to pull the two apart but he went toward them, as he told Tess, "Our Job is done here, Tess time to go."
Tess knew that, she hated to leave especially now, but before pulling away from she told him, "Andrew, you take care of our angel gurl."
" I will."
Then Andrew and Tess pulled away from the goodbye hug. Tess went along with Sam, as they wave goodbye to Andrew, as Andrew waved back they faded away.
After Tess and Sam faded away, Andrew turns back his attention to Monica, as he went back to her bedside put the warm wet towel gently pressed onto her forehead stroking her hair from him sighed, and wondered,
"What are you dreaming about? Monica?"
In Dreamland
The spotlight shines above Monica, making her almost blind, as she no idea where is at, she only sees a microphone standing in front of her. Monica is lost and confused, tons of question flooding through her mind like; Where was she? What was she doing here? And Most importantly here was Andrew. As she could see or nor anything, it was only she, the microphone and the shining spotlight in front of her. Then miraculously Monica heard a familiar voice in the distant calling her to her saying.
"Monica, Sing, just open your heart and sing." Wondering where that voice coming there she a old familiar friend as it was Alexandra. She couldn't believe it, as there she stood in front of her smiling. As Monica went toward her to hug her. They hugged Alexandra said
"Nice to see you again, Monica, How's my angel?"
Pulling out of their hug Monica reply "Fine, Alexandra, it's so good to see you too, tell me? where I am? What I am doing here? I am dreaming?"
"Yes, in a way you are dreaming? As you are lost, but don't worry I am here to help find your back home."
"Help me? Find my way back home?" Monica confused
Alexandra told her, "Monica, listen, it's okay to admit that you're lost and afraid, but you need to Monica, you are not alone at all, you a lot of people who love and want to help you."
"I know that, Alexandra, I do, it's just after seeing you, I began to feel envious of how you humans, are so lucky to live such normal lives, be to able to sing, live and love."
Alexandra sighed, "No, Angel sweetie, that's true no life is normal, nor prefect at all. Yes, humans do sing, live life, and love, but you know what Angels like you can do it too'
"How?" Monica asked
" Just sing, Monica. Sing what's in your heart, and try your best to live by it." Alexandra replies
" I can't sing, God, didn't provide with a voice such as yours." Monica informed her
" Again, that's not true either as you have a voice, Monica. A beautiful voice, you are just afraid to use it, and now its time to be no longer afraid to use your voice. Just open your heart sing. Now no more cants or wonts, just do it."
Monica sighed as she knew Alexandra's wisdom was right, so she said "Alright, Alexandra, I will, I'll try my best."
Alexandra smiled and said, "That's my Angel. Now go sing your heart out. Make me proud."
So Monica went up to Microphone sighed for a moment close her eyes then there she saw Andrew face smiled at her smiled back then open her eyes as began to sing "Even Angels Fall." In slowly but lovely accepella voice.
You find hope, you find faith,
Found how fast she could take it away
Lost your heart, Now you don't know who are.
You will fly and you will crawl
God knows even angels fall
No such thing as you lost it all
God knows even angels fall.
Even angels fall . . .
Alexandra smiled as she faded away as Monica kept singing, Even angels fall as closed her eyes to soon open them still singing as she saw Andrew smiling at her, she smiled back at him then she stops singing, as Andrew told her.
"That was beautiful, Monica"
"Really, do think so, Andrew?"
Andrew said, "Yes, I do, Alexandra, sure did miracles for you."
Monica said, "Thank you Andrew, for saying that, and for being here for me."
"It's my pleasure, Monica, Now how about some coffee to wake you up." Andrew asked Monica
"Please no Irish Coffee, never going drink that stuff ever again." Monica said
Andrew chuckled, "Good, learn your lesson then. So with that lets go have some more of that black hot coffee."
"Hmm, sounds good."
So Monica slowly got out of bed as she and Andrew went downstairs, for some more coffee, as Andrew that would a good to tell her the truth about everything.
