Story:
He brought her back to his barn.
He let her do art there.
She had stopped talking. And every morning he brought coffee out to her.
And eggs.
It reminded him of the mornings she'd nurse his hangovers.
All the times he had sworn off drinking.
And all the nights he drank anyway.
There was not a lot of singing.
She used a lot of black paint at first.
When she could get herself to move at all.
But he brought her to church.
A weird church.
2 Lesbian pastors, open to a whole range of freaks and geeks and misfits.
They fit right in.
He played piano.
There was upright bass
Violin
Autoharp
The pastor was gentle and funny.
They met up.
Eventually, he caught them together.
making out.
(The pastor was married)
No resolution is monitored, that storyline get resolved privately.
He is just stuck in the doorway, stymied and shocked.
And maybe he laughs a little.
If HE couldn't seduce her after all these months, he was glad she found healing somewhere else.
