Harlen would smile kindly at him; it was that smile that priests often had when they spoke to their flock and would show kindness and Empathy. He would let John speak and would give him the chance to get the things of his Soul that would burden him. After all, he had experienced many things in his life already. And Harlen understood this and would not put the finger in a wound that seemed to close slowly.
Harlen: The Heart is still a big mystery to us. Sure, we understand its function and can even repair or replace it when it is damaged. But the Feelings that come from the Heart are one of the Divine Great Riddles that Humanity might never solve. And you're absolutely right that you deserve to be happy again. I lost my Dolores five years ago, and I was never happier than when I was with her. And I am still not at the point where I can love another woman the way she deserves. But I find peace in the knowledge that I will see her again in the Afterlife.
He spoke softly and friendly, and with a Voice, it showed his age but also that he was still a strong man who intended to stay a while longer in this life. He would smile and take a sip of the drink that he had with him in that Flask. Of course, it was not alcohol; instead, it was water. He had Stoped Drinking when he had met his Dolores all these years ago. He would look at John and nod.
Harlen: I am a Priest for all the Religions out there, not just the Church of Deux. But I know enough to make a Ceremony like they do it if that is the Wish. And from what I have spoken with Isabella, she does have similar worries to you. She wants to make you happy and has her worries. But that is something that everyone has on their Wedding Day. The thoughts raise, and you ask yourself, "Do I do the Right thing?" or "Am I able to make my Partner Happy?" Worries like this are absolutely Natural and nothing to be ashamed of.
He said and would slowly get up. He would smile and lay a Hand on John´s shoulder, and would smile gently and softly at him.
Harlen: Worry not too much, Mister Holiday, the Divine have brought you two together. There is a Plan for you, and I am sure that part of the plan is that the two of you will be happy. Trust an old man when I say that Love can solve any problem, no matter how big it might seem.
He smiled as he left for the Church. Meanwhile, Isabella would finish her beauty Program and would also start to slip into a Lovely Dress. She would be sure that John would love to see her in it. But the Closer the wedding came, the more nervous she would be. After all, she loved John with all her heart, but after this day, she would be his wife. That was a big change in her life. Not to mention she would move in with him and would Learn under him. But these were things that would have to wait a bit more, for Today she would hold the wedding, and then they would have a lovely honeymoon ahead of them. So all the other things could wait a bit.
