“Hello, John.” “Mary? Is it really you?” “I’m not the one who’s changed, can you really not recognise your own wife old man?” “Now I remember why I fell in love with you.” “You took your time coming here.” “I know. But the boys-” “I know.” “It’s not exactly the life either of us wanted for them, is it?” “Don’t do that to yourself. Do you remember when I was pregnant with Sam? What did Dean say?” “I can’t remember, I’ve got a weary mind.” “He said ‘I can’t wait for my brother to come out, so I can protect and love him. I’ll teach him everything I know. I’ll be a great big brother, won’t I mommy?’” “I remember now. You cried because of the hormones.” “I cried because I realised I wanted nothing else for my two boys than for them to have each other. And they do. I don’t blame you for how you raised them. Don’t get me wrong, I was angry at first, but I realised I would have done the same.” “How did you get so wise when you had so little time on Earth?” “I’ve spent a long time watching you. It helped.” “I can’t wait for the boys to meet you and fall in love with you too.” “I can.”
