Chapter 15. It Is All Legit

Before today, Nathan had been completely confident that every woman in the world would want to marry him if they were given the opportunity. He had good looks, popularity, and money. What more could a woman want? – he wondered. The sight of Crystal crying on the lawn had thrown him for a loop, and nothing about the things she’d said had made any sense to him – But maybe Andy knows a little bit more about this than I do – he thought – After all, he’s been married for a year!

Nathan eyed Andy impatiently as he waited for an answer. Finally, Andy said, “There… There are many reasons why a woman wouldn’t want to marry someone. For example, if they were short, ugly, fat, poor, lazy, opinionated, stubborn, violent, or if they were a disgusting pervert.”

“But I have none of those shortcomings,” Nathan insisted. “It must be something else.”

One thought occurred to Andy, but he doesn’t say it – Perhaps she sees what everyone else around here sees: that you’re a homosexual.
