Shelter

On the face of it, they were just another homeless couple.

The sun was setting as they trudged through the town’s streets. He felt sure he could find a haven, regardless of how rough; somewhere they could doss down for the night. He was more than a little concerned about her condition. Nobody would have any idea how much he is in love with the woman who finally lays down to rest. In truth, as a couple, they would not be known by many in this place. He sits beside her, watching her sleep. It was as though he was on a mission. One that he didn’t understand himself. To the best of his ability he’s been looking after her. He only knows that it falls to him to protect her and the unborn child. The child is not his, but he will do his best to keep them both safe.

The open door catches the chill of the evening breeze. He pulls her blanket a little higher. She looks so peaceful, despite their wandering the streets for so long. He steps out of their temporary shelter and gazes up into a darkening sky with stars slowly appearing.

He peers into the grey distance at the dimming town of Bethlehem.
