As Homer waited for his car to be fixed, Pastor Winters walked in. Homer opened the door for him.

" Pastor Winters". Homer gave him a strange grin. " I was reading the church bulletin yesterday". 

" I hope it was informative". 

" It was". He stared at the pastor. " It said you have a bible study tomorrow".

" Yes we do".

" I'm not leaving for a few more days". He chuckled. " Would you mind if I came to the bible study?".

" Everyone is welcome".

" Great, see you tomorrow". He walked out. 

Pastor Winters put a paper and a soda on the counter.

Linda rang up the items. " Anything else Pastor?".

" No Linda". He picked up his items. " Did you see Mr Tang?".

" Yes". She smiled as another customer walked in. " I said hi to him".

" Every time I see him". He shook his head. " A chill goes up and down my spine".

" Really". She rang up items for the new customer. " I think he's really nice".

" Take care Linda". He walked out.

She smiled as she raised her healed arm up and down several times.
