"This use to be my room when I was a little girl here at the convent. I remember it so vividly like it was yesterday. You know I was once just like you. I was if not worse. I remember the day I gave myself to god completely and became a nun in this same convent. I slept for many nights in this room and rose very early to praise god. Now it will be You're room." Sister Anna told Tori.
"What do you mean by worse?" Tori asked.
"Let's just say I use to be in a very bad situation. All the nuns here had their own situations before they became nuns. The pastor is a really nice man who had lots of faith and patience, so he took us all in from our bad situations and helped us to choose the path of righteousness and we had a better life after we chose this life of god, it's the story of truth and generosity. We couldn't have been more grateful. I don't know where I would've been if it wasn't for the pastor." Sister Anna told Tori.
"Wow I guess you must've went through a lot..you and the other nuns. I'm glad that you're happier now though." Tori said smiling slightly.
"Yes..I'm happier now. The reason why I so badly wanted to help you was because I see myself in you. I want for you to have a better life, and I know you can have that here at the convent. Just like how I was, and now I'm happier. You can be like that too."
"You mean like live here?" Tori asked.
"Well yeah. I've thought about it. You don't have to necessarily be a nun. You could be in the choir. It'll be a great way to expand You're talent with the others in the choir. A great way to also
Make friends. You'd even have more freedom than I did. It would be best for you." Sister Anna suggested.
"It doesn't seem so bad. I mean I'd love to sing for people. I'm just a bit nervous is all. I've never really made friends before either. I just, I've always been alone."
"Well you wouldn't have be alone anymore. Now you have people. You have me and the pastor, and soon you'll have friends too. You'll do the thing you love most with people who you'll become very close with, this would be a great path for you." Sister Anna said smiling brightly as she sat with Tori on the bed.
"It does sound amazing. I think I'd like to do that. I'm really grateful for you. Thanks for everything sister Anna."
"Of course."
Sister Anna told her.
