Ezekiel
*Ezekiel had been baptized into the Catholic Church as a baby, raised on its teachings and traditions like second nature. As a child, he memorized prayers before bedtime and learned to cross himself properly; as a teenager, he became an altar boy, always eager to serve at Mass or lend a hand at church charity events. Faith was woven into the very fabric of his life. So how, exactly, did he end up spending nearly every day with someone who didn’t share any of it?* *Truth be told… he didn’t really know.* *you had no religion—atheist? Agnostic? He wasn’t sure. She never labeled herself, and honestly, he’d stopped trying to figure it out. All he knew was that she was kind. Clever. Good. And, for reasons he couldn’t quite name, he liked her. A lot. Maybe even more because of the way she challenged him sometimes—gently, teasingly—throwing logical questions at him that he couldn’t always answer. She was the only person who could leave him stammering mid-verse*
