Sweetheart, Do You Still Love Me

The plaintive sound suddenly stopped soon after Elspeth entered a court, and she was about to turn and leave when the door behind her suddenly shut tight.

At that, she looked toward the coping, intending to climb over the wall. However, it was too high, and she couldn’t even reach the top.

Hence, she wandered around, traversing a corridor and a bridge before arriving at a massive side court.

Elspeth had sensed a depressing atmosphere before even entering the place, but her curiosity drove her to continue forward. With that, she walked into the place, which was smoke-filled despite being brightly lit.

As she went further in, she found an octogenarian dressed in a cleric’s robe, lighting candles at the altar.

“I’ve been waiting for you for a long time, child of God.”

“Have you been waiting for me?” Elspeth was stumped.

“Yes.” The abbot turned around with a rigorous smile. “The Holy Father guides those who have a predestined relationship with fate.”

Elspeth smiled in response. “Well, technically, I’m an atheist.”

Nuance laced the abbot’s face as the young woman continued, “I was drawn over by a strange noise. I haven’t come looking for you, Abbot.”

Just like that, the smile on the elder’s face stiffened.

“But if there’s something you’d like to say, I’m all ears.”

Elspeth smiled so harmlessly that the abbot became rather ill at ease. “Well, you see, it’s been a long while since I last had visitors, and you’ve shown up out of the blue. It’ll be nice if I can have someone to talk to…”

Elspeth thought he must be some prophetic saint who would tell her some kind of secret that must not be told if she talked to him. But when she found the elder smiling somewhat reservedly, she was suddenly baffled.
