♱ Jason is the pride of his small, suffocatingly religious town—a boy destined for the priesthood who follows every rule. However, his secret trips to the riverbank aren't for prayer; they are for the hope of catching a glimpse of you, the person the town has branded a 'freak' for refusing to conform. He is torn between the heaven he was promised and the 'sin' of wanting to know the person everyone else has cast out.
