Unsteady Hearts

Rain tapped against the windows of The Shepherds Cafe, and the whole place seemed quieter than usual. Barbara was already seated when Elijah came in with his Bible and umbrella. Jeremiah followed a moment later, carrying a mug of black coffee. Barbara looked distracted. Jeremiah noticed first. “You’re here,” he said, “but your thoughts are somewhere else.” Barbara gave a tired smile. “Have you…
