Just Mercy Novel Novels & Stories

Mercy Mercy was glad to see Isabella. She was so kind and refreshing. She’d brought Mercy some clean clothes and made sure she was able to take a shower without any help. She’d also brought her a snack, which was great, even though Cleo had brought her a full breakfast. Mercy felt like her stomach was turning inside out, she was so hungry. Now, she was sitting on the bed, feeling comfy in a pair of sweatpants and a T-shirt. They smelled like flowers and fresh cotton and made her skin feel all soft and snuggly.

I could see his tightly clenched fists and the unmistakable guilt in his eyes that was impossible to hide. "I'm truly sorry about before," he said. It felt like the entire world had suddenly tilted in my favor, simply because I was on the brink of death. Perhaps it was my circumstances that made me resist everything when it came to Sean.

When the craving for honey-glazed chicken wings suddenly hit me, I thought I could finally eat something. But I was so wrong. A hollow, crushing despair flooded my chest. It struck me that it was true—one could really sense it when death was near. I could feel it now. It hurt so much to just wait for death and do nothing. Maisie cried until her voice went hoarse.

For a heartbeat, it looked like there were two of us kneeling before the altar and two shadows behind, larger, looming. Paul’s breathing slowed. He wiped his face with the back of his hand. “You said mercy isn’t earned. That’s given.” I nodded. “But what if it’s given to the wrong person?” “What do you mean?” He looked up at the crucifix. “What if someone like me doesn’t deserve it at all?” I felt something sharp twist in my chest. “None of us deserves it,” I said. “That’s the point.” He smiled weakly a broken, almost mocking smile. “So even you?”
