FAITH: Lily & GOD

Chapter 14

It was the afternoon of Sunday, and Lily and Sarah just left the church premises after an impactful service. They head for Sarah's home to hang out and have a sleepover later in the night.

"What do you think we invite Joshua to church next Sunday?" Sarah asked.

They were currently preparing lunch for themselves before they headed for the park to take a walk.

"Hmm, that sounds great actually" Lily agreed "But don't you think he has a church he attends?"

Sarah's lips formed an 'o'

"Yeah, I didn't think of that," Sarah said. "But we never know, he might be open to changing church" she shrugged.

"Maybe when we meet again, we'll ask him"

"Okay then."

"I don't think we three have sat down to truly talk about ourselves, like know each other side from we are GOD-believing Christians wanting to make a difference in the world by doing the works of GOD and studying about faith together" Lily mentioned.

Sarah nods in agreement. "You're right" There has not been any discussion that sense between the three of us. I would love to learn more about him aside from the ones he told you when you guys just met."

"Me too," Lily agreed "Let's finish cooking lunch so we can meet up and have that talk."

***

Both ladies are waiting at a café close to Joshua's place of work, they are sitting at a table close to the window. They are waiting for Joshua to get there after his shift.

While they previously debated where they could use it as their next meeting place aside from the park, Joshua suggested this place since it was closer to his workplace and he wouldn't have to delay them when he closed from his shift.

"Did he say when he closed from his shift?" Lily asked for the third time since they arrived and checked her watch again.

"3 pm during the weekdays" Sarah responded. "Just chill, he'll be here in no time"

"Okay, I'm just worried that he might be held back"

"We can always reschedule anytime, just chill girl"

"Do you want to go first or I should?"

Sarah shrugged. "We can just start a general question and let it flow, nothing like I go first, he goes second kind of thing"

Lily nodded and looked at her watch then called the server to get her more coffee and cake.

"Here comes our guest," Sarah said, looking behind Lily.

Lily turns around to see Joshua walking towards them with an apologetic look on his face.

"So sorry to keep you ladies waiting" he apologized then sat beside Lily. "Did I miss any fun?" he asked and they shook their heads. "Okay, how are you, girls?"

"We are good, we brought you some home-cooked food" Sarah passed him the food bag the packed for him.

"Thank you, now I don't have to cook tonight" he chuckled. "Thanks so much guys"

"You're very much welcome Joshua"

"We want to talk about something different, something not related to all that we do meet to discuss," Sarah said.

"Okay, what are we talking about?" the server came with Lily's order and Joshua placed the same order as she.

"Ourselves" Lily answered.

"Oh, that's actually a great idea. We don't really know each other that well, we might as well do that today"

"Glad that you agreed, I'll go first" Sarah smiled "I am Sarah Winslet, I'm an only child, I have great parents, and I was brought up in a Christian home. I want to be a therapist, I love food also and my bestie over there" she points to Lily who grinned.
