Unrestrained laughter filled the air, and Holden's arm brushed against Stellar's as he shook with glee. He couldn't believe his ears when he heard Stellar's prayer.
"Whaaaaat?" Stellar shrieked in annoyance. She punched Holden on the arm after seeing him laughing at her.
That was the first time she saw him act so carefree and loud. It should delight her to see that side of him, for he was always silent and deep, but approachable nonetheless. However, the fact that he was laughing at her own expense irked Stellar.
Shuffling his hand on the top of her head, Holden mused, "I'm not a priest, Star. I cannot hear confessions yet, but once I can, don't hesitate to see me. By the way, what pushed you to confess? That's so random."
"Because of your touch," Stellar blurted out. Her mouth did the talking before her mind could stop her tongue from wagging. Immediately, her hands flew to her mouth in her shock. "Holy sh-schnitzel."
