Maddie watched the priest intently as he finished after service. He seemed distracted and she squinted a bit trying to hide her frown as he went about his day. How easy his life probably was. Everyone looking up to you for just reading out of a book. If she could read she probably could do his job just as good. Course, they didn't have such a thing as female priests.

When he sat, she took her chance and sat beside him. "Father Richards, i'nt it? Son of a good doctor, are you?" She mused and put her hands on her crossed legs trying to appear as decent and lady like as possible. "How's your day goin'? I hope you been having a fine mornin? Sorry I didn't see the whole thing. Not a godly sort myself."

She glared at a boy who was getting ready to leave and gave her a weird look. She frowned and looked forward again.

"I've somethin' to say, and there's no need ta take it to heart. My grief i'nt with you."
