Nathan POV:
Sunday, 28th of July
Finally the day I've been waiting for since Wednesday came! It's 9 AM and I'm getting ready to go to church for the service of worship, it starts at 10 o'clock. My family was early as always so they were waiting for me in the car to get ready and join them. After reaching the church I went and took a seat on one of the closest benches to the front, although it wasn't the first line of the benches. I really needed to delete every weird things from my brain.
Before the Mass begins I was looking around as always and AH WELL someone caught my eyes. He was wearing a vestment but I never saw him in our church till now! God, he is stunning... I never saw such a young man wearing vestments! Is he new or something? Let's wait and see~
Mass begun and after singing hymns and reading scripture verses, when everyone was getting ready to leave, the Bishop stopped us and introduced the man I mentioned earlier to everyone as an ordinand (a person who recently became a priest). Sooo~ I guessed it right~ But isn't he too young and attract- no no no! not again Nate!!! Wait- WHAT'S THIS? I turned my gaze to another side. WHY HE'S SMILING AT ME? Did I stared at him too much? Oh God why my throat got dry? I must be crazy.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Okay but do my family always have to go and greet new priests every time? Oh God, here we go, my 24/7 friendly mom again!!
My mom got closer to the new priest with a wide smile and approached him. "Hello, Father. It's really nice to have someone as young as you here, on this sacred day of your ordination, may your path be illuminated with divine wisdom, and may your service be a source of inspiration to all. Welcome to our community~" She got silent after receiving a shy smile from him and before he could answer OF COURSE she started to talk again and make him more uncomfortable as she always does. "Oh, righttt!!! I'm Grace Hamilton and this is my husband Thomas Hamilton. Oh and this is my daughter Nath-"
My sister stopped my mom. "Mom!! I can introduce myself..." She looked back at the priest. "Hello, father. I'm Nathalie Hamilton. I'm sure you're a big blessing to our church." She smiled warmly.
My mom started talking again. "Yeah I was saying, this is my daughter Nathalie and these are my sons, Nathaniel and Nathan Hamilton~" Of course my sister rolled her eyes.
My brother and I nodded in acknowledgement and said "welcome to our community, father." at the same time. Well we're not twins or anything but we do or say same things a lot at the time.
It's my mom's turn of course- "so how should we address you~?"
God, please. She could just ask us!! Right after the Mass the Bishop introduced him already and it seems like my mom forgot it so soon, like many other things that she forget. For example, forgetting her own children's names sometimes, that's why we don't like the idea of her introducing us to others!
Although instead of making any face like others, the new priest just smiled at my mom and answered. "I really appreciate your warm welcome Mrs. Hamilton. I'm the new reverend, William Ivanov." Finally! He got the chance to talk. And wow... He has a nice voice...
After my mom finished bullying William- oh wait. Can I call him by his name? It's in my mind anyway so there should be no problem, hm? So I was saying, after that we went home. I went straight to my room and lay on the bed. I picked up my phone after hearing a notification. OF COURSE it was Luna, as it's so freaking obvious I have no one else to text me except her. well... I'm not as friendly as my mother. she's on another level of extroversion-
Luna:
Reached home?
Me:
Yep, why?
Luna:
Dunno, just bored-
Me:
get yourself a boyfriend already.
Luna:
I'm working on it~
Me:
Wtf!?
Me:
Ohhh btw~ Wanna come to our church sometimes? They added some interesting options recently~~
Luna:
Of course not :D But what's the 'interesting option' anyway?
Me:
A young attractive priest maybe?! LOL.
Luna:
WTF??? *Laughing emoji*
Luna:
Typing...
Well... Is there a problem if a boy thinks another man is attractive?! I don't think so...
