Reina scooted to face the other lady with her body. She placed her palm on Odessa's hand. "I am a witch, properly inducted to the magic of the night. Odessa, I look at you and see that you're a human now. Days before, you didn't even look alive to me. As for proof for humans, I… We can only test it out."
A small smile drew on Odessa's lips, but her smile reflected her sadness. "I saw a rosary burn Claude's hand. If I come to church and receive a blessing, won't I go up in flames anymore?"
"…we can do that… but don't go to a church." Reina chuckled, shaking her head. She got up from the bed. "I'll call my seniors to ask. I'll be back."
"Thanks."
Odessa watched Reina leave. She then rubbed her hands slowly, a sigh escaping her lips. When her palms faced her, she stared at the lines. In an almost inaudible voice, she said, "In the end, I return to being a normal person again…"
