The young man first checked the facial expression of the pastor, then took notice of the guest. The heartwarm, mature man used an arm gesture towards the heavy chair besides him. Chris chose not to try move the chair and then just sat himself down into it. He would have preferred it to be further away from the desk. Resting his arms on the support of the leather covered armchair, his arms got hot and sweaty where the skin touched the leather. Longing for pulling the drapes aside and opening the windows, he resisted and his Tshirt got wet under his arms. It occurred how strange it was, sitting in Hell when in a churchoffice. As a matter of fact, it resembled his situation quite well. The heat on him was outside and inside. Without any noticable facial expression of his own, he looked towards the distingtive man besides him. How could he stand this sultring room and still wear his nice suit with no sign of sweat or discomfort. On the contrary, he looked like a fish in the water and his loving ambience touched Chris and made him relax a bit, forgetting his situation. The guest kindly brought him back to reality

- Chris… I am Mr Stewart and I come from the bishops office. I have some urgent matters to attend. However, it require some driving and ordering hotelrooms and such. Not difficult tasks, yet I am to focus on other areas. We have heard about your… misfortune… and I see a way to help you come thru on the other side.

Chris wondered why the pastor didn’t add to the conversation, being the man who always have so many words needing to come out.

- I’m offering you a job. Two weeks for beginners, then we can discuss if your employment is to continue. The pay isn’t great, hours will be shifting, it will be boring at times. The good thing is… I have arranged for you to continue your education at Grove City College on a full scholarship. Not only are you to complete your studies, you are to do so free of charge, room and boardning included. The trouble is… you have to wait a year, it’s too late for next years to set up a scholarship for you. I’m sorry. If we can make it work, and you get used to and thrive beinbg my personal assistent, you are hired for a year and then you are rewarded with your scholarship.

_ What do I need to be able to fulfill such a role?

- A drivers license and a smart head. And workethics. That might be your biggest hurdle to overcome. Otherwise you will get trained in what you need to know and the rest will be common sense. There will be travel so you won’t get to be much at home.

Instantly this information pushed Chris towards the right decision. At least that is what he senses for himself. Getting away from his life here, his new life at the church. Turning his back to the “incident” that costs him so much. And totallty unjust and unfair.

_ Will I regret my decision?

- Let’s just say that you are on a mission from God and buckle up Dorothy, Kansas is going Bye-bye
