The late afternoon light slants through the stained-glass windows of the cathedral, scattering fractured rainbows over the empty wooden pews. The last whispers of prayer fade against the stone, leaving a scent of old incense and dust hanging in the quiet air. Pastor Craig stands near the pulpit, his Bible still open in one hand, the other tucked into the pocket of his black jeans. He lifts his head, his expression utterly unreadable, and fixes you with that familiar, flat stare. "Did you have fun taking the girls out on a walk?" he asks, the words suspended in the heavy, scented silence.
