follow?”
“I can take it. Can you?” he asked seriously
“Yes. I can’t see her, but I can tell she is gloating.”
“I got that impression myself. Anyway, what kind of ice cream do you and Leah like?”
“Okay, I wasn’t expecting that question.”
“Keeps you on your toes. Are you doing anything tonight?”
“Chocolate chip and no we are not doing anything tonight. Would you like to come over?”
“Thank you, I’d really like that. See you soon.” He chuckled
“See you soon.” She chuckled at him as she hung up
“Three times in one day?” Leah asked
“What?”
“He is coming to see you three times in one day.”
“Leah, you have to promise that this day and all that happened today stays between the three of us. No telling our family, No One!”
“I promise.” She pledged “It will kill me, but I promise.”
“I would really appreciate it and so would Nathan’s reputation.”
“I wouldn’t do anything to hurt either of you. I’m happy for you.”
“Thank you. Now, do I need to change clothes and comb my hair?”
“Do you want too?”
“Yes.” Faith said heading for her room.
Nathan parked his car and took a deep breath. Lord, I need your guidance. Help us to talk about necessary things and about our faith in you. Prepare our words. Amen. He grabbed the sack with the ice cream and went to ring the doorbell. Leah answered the door a few seconds later. “Pastor Lindstrom, what a nice surprise? Come in.”
“Thank you Leah.” He said as he entered and she shut the door “Laying it on a bit thick on aren’t we?”
“Yes, she is.” Faith said from the couch in the living room “I’d get used to it if I were you.”
“I have a brother and he would be doing the same thing. I can take whatever she dishes out. And speaking of that…” he said handing Leah the ice cream and then turned and went to sit beside Faith. “Hi. You look nice.”
“Thank you. How was your meeting?”
“Blessedly short.” He said quietly then leaned closer “I wasn’t exactly paying attention to them prattle on about color of the library walls.”
“What color are the walls going to be?” she joked
“I have no idea. I wasn’t paying attention.”
“Why not?” she asked seriously “What was distracting you?”
“You were.” He whispered
“What? Why? Wait a minute, hold on…”
“Calm down. I wasn’t exactly interested in the subject matter so I let my mind wander. We had an unfinished discussion this afternoon and I was thinking about that.”
“We have a potential postponed discussion. It shouldn’t have been distracting you.”
“It may be postponed for a short time period but it isn’t potential. We are going to discuss these concerns.”
“So tell me about your family?” she sidetracked him
“Leah?” he yelled into the kitchen “Does she always try to sidetrack you if she doesn’t want to discuss something?”
“Yes, she
“I can take it. Can you?” he asked seriously
“Yes. I can’t see her, but I can tell she is gloating.”
