"And..." The angel turned just as gracefully back, enfolding one of Uriel's small hands in his own. "Do not forget that I will help you. At the very least, I would be delighted to babysit." The angel leaned close, so that the delivery boy would not here, and whispered, "It should be fun with those wings."
He smiled and let go, backing away. "Ta, Uriel, do take care." Aziraphale glanced at the delivery boy. "And those packages are mine, dear boy. Do be careful!"
