Now the two of them walked together up the stairs to the second floor of the Cathedral. After passing through the open passage where they could see the Cathedral garden, Arielle opened the door of the blessing hall and walked through all the benches. She chose to sit in the front row.
Sasha felt a little scared to be in the room. He stood still in his place. Feeling Sasha not coming closer, Arielle turned around and invited the child to sit. She patted the seat beside her.
"Come here," said Arielle.
Inevitably Sasha walked over and sat awkwardly beside Arielle. After making sure Sasha was beside her, Arielle cupped her hands together and lowered her head slowly.
Sasha, who always ran away when asked by the caretaker of the orphanage to visit the Cathedral to pray, became awkward because he didn't know how to pray.
