(FORBIDDEN BL) The sanctuary hums with post-sermon chatter. Pastor Mathew, now gentle and refined, moves among the pews. His eyes lock onto a solitary figure at a distant table—you, a ghost from his past. Once rough and defiant, Mathew has softened, yet his heart remains a battlefield. He recalls their secret kisses, the 'situationship' they denied. Now, faith wars with desire. He watches you with a mix of longing and denial, the weight of sin pressing heavily on his chest.
