"Hey! Come in!" Faith welcomed the Father inside as he hugged her. "Welcome."

I grinned at their interaction, while they pulled away.

Joseph turned toward me and smiled, "Hello, Hope!" He wrapped his arms around me and I wrapped my arms around him as I was shocked; I didn't expect him to hug me when he seen me.

"Hi, Father." I chuckled as we pulled away from each other.

"Is that... Bliss I smell?" Joseph asked incredulously as he sniffed the air; a suspicious look was plastered on his face.

"Umm... Yes, Father—" Faith replied hastily, with a hint of nervousness in her voice.

"Yeah, Joseph. I needed some Bliss to help with my concussion!" I responded quickly, possibly too quickly. "I was in so much pain and Faith truly helped a lot." [phew😅 good save Alice]

Joseph nodded in understanding and looked less suspicious. "Okay. Well, John and Jacob should be here soon."

All of a sudden, there was a knock on the door.

"That must be John or Jacob." I stated.

"Make yourself comfortable in the living room, Father. And Alice and I will go get the door." Faith led Joseph to the couch and swiftly made her way to the front door beside of me.

I opened the door, revealing the youngest Seed brother.

"Hi brother John!" Faith greeted the Baptist.

"Well, helloooo. Who is this cutie, Faith?" John smirked, looking me up and down like I was a piece of meat. "You were... you were in the church that night, right?"

"Yeah. I'm Alice. You must be Faith's brother: John." I offered him my hand to shake, but instead, he immediately stroked my hand and brought my knuckles to his lips. I was flattered, but I didn't like the fact that he was touching me so... flirtatiously. In the corner of my eye, I could see that Faith was gazing at the Baptist with an unreadable expression on her face. John then released my hand as I stepped aside to let him in.

"You know it. Everyone knows me." He winked at me.

"Stop trying to get with my girl— I mean my friend." Faith sternly stated, but then corrected herself. "She's not one of your one night stands that you just end up throwing away. She's not gonna be another notch on your belt, John." [faith hunny you ok? i love it when you show that side of you and you get all spicy 🥵 teehee 😜]

John's mouth formed an O shape and looked taken aback. He didn't expect her to go off like that and neither did I. I was just as shocked as him...

"I was just be respectful to your dear friend, Alice, but... Well, then..." The Baptist cleared his throat and straightened his vest. "I'm going to the living room where the Father is. Excuse me." He quickly walked in the living room, leaving Faith and I alone in front of the front door.

I closed the front door and turned toward Faith. "You totally went off on John good." I laughed, clenching my stomach. "I could have handled it."

Faith blushed a little, "Yeah. Urm— I was just— um— trying to protect you."

"Faith, I'm sure your brother is harmless. And I don't need protection." I chuckled. "I don't even like men anyway." I accidentally blurted that out and I clamped my hand over my mouth.

"Oh. That's c-cool." Faith stammered as she blushed a darker shade of fuchsia.

I'm not sure why I said that out loud without even thinking. Did I like men...? I really don't know... Suddenly, there was a loudass, harsh knock at the door. Faith and I both knew it was the eldest Seed sibling.
