THE PUNISHMENT
Liam’s P.O.V.
/"Wait, Liam! We have to pray first,/" she declared, and at the same time, she did a sign of the cross and closed her eyes in a slow-motion manner.
/"Hmm… all right,/" I reluctantly replied. It was obvious that I wasn’t used to praying before eating.
Tsk! Am I already a turn off for her?
After we prayed, Diane and I silently ate together in the bed we shared last night. I couldn’t read what was on her mind, but I didn’t pray for myself. I prayed for her, and that was the first time I prayed for another person. I prayed that she would soon conquer her bad dream whatever it was.
And if this wasn’t the last time I would see her, I would help her conquer everything if she would let me. Together, we would defeat all of her fears.
