A song played till the end

A song played till the end. A song played till the end of Monica's life. Evan saw to that, he wanted to send Monica out to music. He hadn't seen her for a long time and she probably couldn't hear the songs. Still Evan made sure Monica went out of this life to music.
When they were together music was important to Monica. She wanted to be a singer once. A long time ago. When Monica and Evan were close, together, touching. Music was important to Monica then. Now Monica was dieing and Evan had come to sit with her at her bedside until she died. It wouldn't be long now.
When the nurse came in to adjust the flow of the drips into the tubes Evans moved but he made sure another song was ready to go on his laptop. First Beethoven, and Mozart's requiem, and then Vivaldi Four Season's, and then Paul Stokie, the Wedding Song, and the Beatles, and the Girl groups.
Monica died during Schubert's Ave Maria. The nurses ask Evan to leave during the Greensleeves.
That was the sad end of Monica but Evan made sure she went out to music.
