DRABBLE: 7. Prayer (Again)
Jul. 17th, 2017 09:36 pm7. Prayer (Again)
(Grantchester, Sidney/Geordie)
The church was empty. The peace made it easier to pray but was also disconcerting. If people stopped coming, he’d be out of a job. He smiled when he heard footsteps making their way down the aisle.
He wrapped up his prayers then he turned with a heady sort of compassion.
Only it wasn’t a parishioner. It was Geordie, looking defeated. Geordie with a handkerchief at his nose. His hayfever was acting up. At least no one was in the church to be bothered if he sneezed. And no one was in the church to see the two men embrace.
