As the LeMarques were driving home from Pansit Paradise (where they had greeted Father Penn, being among his parishioners):

MOTHER: You're right, Cindy, Al Havens _does_ seem like a young gentleman. I know some people who go to his father for dental work; Eric Havens is a gentleman, for certain.

FATHER: So, honey, do you _like_ Alipang?

STUART: Of course she does! She doodled a picture of him in her--

CINDY: Shut up, you little twit! Mom, tell him to quit it!

MOTHER: Stuart, I've warned you about teasing your sister....

STUART: Why can't I tease her just because she's sick?

STEVE: Stu, you are SO going to get grounded for this--

MOTHER: Which is for your father and me to decide, Steve, not for you.

FATHER: But Stu, you _are_ grounded, for two days, including no video games. You _have_ been warned.

CINDY (crying, then recovering herself): Mom, Dad, it doesn't matter if I like Alipang or not. I'm going to die from this lousy tumor. I wouldn't be falling so much if.... (Crying again)

MOTHER: You're not going to die, honey. We won't _let_ you die. We're getting you the best help we can find.

CINDY (sniffling): I know you are, Mom. I know you're doing everything you can, and I love you so much for trying. But some people just _don't_ get well. Uncle Gustave didn't. And I won't.

FATHER (close to tears himself): You have to hang on to hope, darling. You have to keep fighting. And if thinking about a boy helps your will to live... (choking with grief)

CINDY: Then I'll tell you what, Dad. If I'm still around next spring, and on my feet, I'll ask Alipang to the Girl-Ask-Boy Dance. But meanwhile, please don't embarrass me by trying to set me up with him.

ooc: I believe a Deacon would be the better terminology.

ic: Brendan, when he had finished his homework, made his way over to Jens house to surprise her
 
OOC: Driad, I know what a Deacon is, but there is no rule that there cannot be more than one PRIEST in a parish. I figured one would specialize in Spanish-speaking services.

ooc: I'm sorry. I didn't mean to come across as you did not know what a Deacon was. I thought that that was what you may have been implying. This one parish near me has 3 priests.

Jen waited impatiently for her smoothie to finish. She turned on MTV and began singing the familiar song.

ooc: here:

Name: Father Pablo Romano.
Background: Father Pablo's family had a very difficult background, moving after being evicted a few times because of their poor economic standings. Father Pablo turned to God for help and since has been His faithful follower. He runs the Spanish-speaking services at St. Timothy's

is that okay?
 
"Hiya Jen" smiled Brendan. "I hope now is okay, if you wanna head over to the Pansit Paradise? I would've called, but I don't have your number, so.."
 
"Brendan!" Jen smiled. "Oh that's fine. I'll be right there."

Jen turned off the TV and the blender, then got her jacket on and walked outside, locking the door behind her.
 
"ok. So I'm not quite sure where this place is. But You said you'd been there before right? So i'm gonna trust your direction on this one." Brendan laughed.
 
"It's in the general direction of the church," Jen said, starting to walk that way. "So, did you finish all of your homework?"

"I got a lot of it done. But I just don't have the mind for it. I don't get into the homework. " he replied
 
"Hm," Jen said. "I barely finished my geometry homework. I hate math, I don't understand it or anything."

"I know right? These classes are so general. They don't apply to anything I want to do. I wish their was profession specific classes I could take here." Sighed brendan

"Same," Jen sighed. "I would definitely take lacrosse and journalism instead of geometry and home ec. Cooking isn't my thing, but there wasn't anything else left for me to choose from."

"I would gladly enroll in a JROTC program, if they had one. I'm actually surprised a school, specifically this school located in Virginia, doesn't."
