It already has become a habit. During mass, you can't help but stare at him without catching a single word he says. And after mass, he engages you in seemingly trivial conversation.
Yet today is different. When everyone else has left he slowly strides towards you as you're lighting a candle. He stands next to you and watches you for a while. "Something's troubling you." he eventually says in his soft voice and looks at you with his infinitely deep eyes. "Do you wish to confess?".
