Jens stood by the side in a bored manner as Baby Robbie sat down on the church pew to pray. He looked at Baby Robbie listlessly.
If Jens liked someone, he would hold her dear to his heart. He would never express his love for her.
However, what about Baby Robbie?
He was completely different from him. He started crushing on someone before even meeting her, and he liked to make sure that everyone knew about his feelings. He was truly lovesick.
"Jens, you should pray too." Robbie dragged Jens over to the pews and handed him a candle.
Jens held the candle and looked at the flickering flame. He asked Baby Robbie curiously, “What should I pray for?"
Baby Robbie looked at him like he was a national treasure.
"I don’t believe that you no longer have any desires at such a young age."
Jens laughed and said, "That isn't the case. I've just never relied on God to fulfill my wishes. I'd like to obtain what I wish for through my own abilities."
After speaking, Jens closed his eyes and said, "God, I don’t wish for anything. I passed by here as a traveler, so I’ll leave a candle here for you."
Baby Robbie gaped and said, "Jens, you have such a pure and clean heart. You make me seem like a greedy man with a heart full of materialistic desires."
Jens said, "We all are.”
While both of them chatted, a priest walked over and patted Jens on his shoulder. "Are you Jenson Ares?"
Jenson turned around to look at him. The priest was dressed in a dark-colored robe. However, he exuded high spirits. He looked like a highly dignified figure.
Jens nodded as he seemed to come to a realization.
The priest said, "Come with me."
Jenson did not hesitate to follow him.
However, Baby Robbie pulled Jens behind him and warned him, "No, you can't go with him, Jens. He looks really sly. He can't be a good person."
The priest froze.
"How am I sly-looking?"
Jens immediately tried easing things. "He thinks that all people with looks beneath his are sly-looking."
"..." The priest was speechless.
