When she reached the center of the mountain, a thin layer of sweat appeared on Serena's back.
It was very cold in winter.
When they arrived, they were also wearing hats, scarves and gloves.
But when they were in the middle of the mountain to sit down and rest, Anna and Serena had already taken off their gloves and hats, even their scarves.
Anna was so hot that she wanted to take off her coat, but Luca stopped her.
-Don't take off your coat. You only feel warm in your body, but the temperature is the same everywhere. If you take it off, you will meet the cold air and get cold.
Stopped by him, she wrinkled her nose unhappily.
-But I feel so hot, how can I cool down without taking it off?
Luca took two towels from his backpack, looked to the side and gestured.
-There is a sink over there. Mrs. Serena, you and Anna could go and dry your sweat. Then get some rest.
Serena smiled and took it, -Thank you.
It had to be said that Luca was really thoughtful, even thinking about these things.
The more she looked at him, the more Serena felt that Luca was a good person.
Anna, a very carefree girl, would have been well taken care of by Luca.
It was a pity.
They both wiped the sweat from their backs. Back outside, Luca had already found the hot water and was waiting for them.
-I don't know what happened to you before. Drink some hot water to dispel the cold.
Serena took it and gave Luca a deep look.
One could tell that the man was very attentive.
-Thank you.
Anna drank it slowly, looking at the people, travelers and pilgrims around, and sighed, -I thought I was trying so hard. I felt so good when I was traveling. I didn't expect that I would discover so many people when I got halfway. When we get to the top, will there always be so many? -
Serena half-closed her lips and smiled, "Maybe? After all, there should be many people who worship Our Lady sincerely.
The three recovered most of their physical strength after resting for almost half an hour, and then continued to climb.
As they got closer and closer to the top of the mountain, Serena felt her strength draining faster and faster. She had spent the long time resting, but she was particularly short on perseverance. She believed that if she remained pregnant for a few more months, she would no longer be able to climb.
It was not until five o'clock in the afternoon that the three of them finally reached the top of the mountain.
Actually, it should not have been that late, but Serena and Anna were exhausted along the way, so they took a few breaks. Thus they took twice the accumulated time.
-After entering, if you do not know how to worship, follow me and do not run.
Before entering to light the candle, Serena said to Anna beside her.
There were many people who had come to the shrine to light the candle, but everyone was very stern and respectful. No one had a frivolous smile or anything else on their face. Everyone had remained serious.
When it was Serena's turn, she knelt down and prayed fervently. Anna was pious and serious, learning from her.
-You took a blessed candle, do you know how to do it?
Anna nodded unconsciously.
-Yes.
As a child, when Amelia took her to light candles, she always asked for one. Amelia would say what she wanted before she asked.
-All right.
Serena closed her eyes when she asked, and the candle swung gently in her hand. After a while, a candle fell as if it had vitality.
Serena picked it up and glanced at it. She memorized the number at the top, put it back in the candle holder and worshipped it religiously again.
When it was Anna's turn, she was a little nervous.
When she heard that Serena was coming, she felt in her heart that she wanted something and wanted to join her. She wanted something deep in her heart, and she knew what it was.
