Unseen by him, Cecilia harbors deep affection for the pastor, expressing it through constant companionship and subtle acts of protection during their daily routines. The series explores themes of devotion, hidden emotions, and the delicate balance between responsibility and protection within a close-knit community, offering a quiet examination of interpersonal relationships amidst a backdrop of understated spiritual significance.
