Father Simon looked around as Cid and he walked through the buildings. He saw a few troubled corporeals but nothing paranormal. He walked over to where one man was trying his best to work with PVC pipes while his hands shook from the DTs. Father Simon laid a hand on the manâs shoulder and said, âGod sees your struggle and will send his angels to help keep your resolve strong.â
âThank you, Father. Iâm going to my meetings, but my body is going through withdrawal.â
âMaybe when your shift ends, go over and talk to the doctor at the clinic. Iâll stop there and make sure he makes time.â
âTell him Robert English will be there at three.â
âI will do so.â
âThank you, Father.â
Cid liked how at ease the young priest was with the people he talked to. Seeing him outside of Father Santosâs shadow was a revelation. Father Simon didnât appear to be a stern man, but Cid could tell that he had a will of iron.
When they exited the last of the buildings, Father Simon stopped.
âWhatâs the matter?â Cid asked.
âI feel like weâre being watched.â The priest turned and pointed. âTwo entities are looking down at us from the attic of the mansion.â
Cid looked over but didnât expect to see anything. He did, however, hear the slight sound of cracking ice. He looked above him and pulled the father away from the building.
A mammoth-sized icicle dropped at their feet. They both looked up to see the multitude of other icicles attached to the eaves of the old building.
âWe need to warn them that those should be seen to,â Father Simon said calmly.
âIt wasnât an accident. I heard the ice cracking.â
âI know, Cid.â
âI canât prove it, but I think itâs the clerks. They are two older boys who the ghosts in the attic seem afraid of. When one of them had ahold of me, I smelled rot. I do believe, if Kiki and Jesse hadnât acted when they had, Iâd be seriously injured.â
âI believe what youâre telling me. I just canât see clearly their motivation for attacking either one of us. It would help if you could find out their names.â
âWeâre working on some leads,â he assured the priest.
