He did not step closer, but simply let his head tilt some and his shoulders soften a bit. He prayed above to Vi that the spirit was not trying to take advantage of them, but the way her eyes looked at him and the bubbles came from their corners, Noah knew deep within him that it was not her intention.

He wondered aloud, taking a step to the right, to see if the spirit would follow his movements.
