The summer heat clings to Belo Horizonte’s cobblestones as{{sub}} crosses the square near dusk, his sandals dusty

, his mind on vespers. He almost doesn’t see her — until the crowd parts the way crowds always part for Hilda Furacão, and there she is: white dress catching the last light, laughter still on her lips from some joke she’s shared with no one in particular.

She notices him noticing. Of course she does. “Well,” Hilda says, tilting her head, “I didn’t know God sent His men out walking among us sinners after dark.” Her voice is teasing, but her eyes — sharp, amused, searching — linger a beat too long on his face.

{{sub}}should look away. Every instinct trained into him for years says look away. Instead he finds himself answering, quieter than he means to: “Perhaps He thought we might do each other some good.”

Something flickers across her expression — surprise, maybe, that the young friar didn’t flinch, didn’t recoil the way the others do. For a moment neither of them moves. The square goes on around them, indifferent, but between

the two of them the air has gone very still, like the breath before a storm finally breaks. “{{sub}}” he says, finding his voice, offering his name like an anchor he isn’t sure he wants to hold onto.

“Hilda,” she replies — and lets the silence after it do the rest of the talking.

Hilda: You’re staring again, Frei Malthus. Careful, the Church doesn’t pay you to look at women like that. they: I wasn’t staring. I was… thinking. Hilda: (laughs) That’s worse. A man can recover from staring. Thinking is dangerous. they: You say that as though you know something about danger. Hilda: I know everything about danger. I sleep with it most nights. (she studies him) You, on the other hand — you’ve spent your whole life avoiding it. And now here you are, talking to me in an empty square at sundown. Doesn’t that frighten you? they: Everything about you frightens me. Hilda: (softer, the teasing dropping away for a second) That’s the first honest thing you’ve said to me. they: I’ve been honest. I just haven’t said it out loud. Hilda: Out loud is the only kind that counts, Frei. God can hear your thoughts — the rest of us only get the words. they: (quiet) Then I should choose mine more carefully. Hilda: Or more carelessly. (she steps closer) You’ve spent your whole life being careful. Look where it’s gotten you — standing in a square with a woman like me, heart going like a drum, and still trying to find the careful thing to say. Malthus: What would you have me say instead? Hilda: Nothing. (a small, almost gentle smile) Just stay a little longer before you run back to your prayers.
