Feast of Love2007

[Bradley and Harry are sitting on the bench by the football field reminiscing of the past year and a half]

Harry Stevenson:
God is either dead or he despises us.

Bradley Smith:
You don't really believe that.

Harry Stevenson:
Maybe. I saw the most remarkable thing just now. I wandered into the stadium, I thought I was alone but down on the 50-yard line there was a couple making love. I watched for longer then I should have. I was envious. And then I felt sorry for them. There's so much they don't know. Heartbreak they can't even imagine.

Bradley Smith:
[sighs] Well, even if they knew, it wouldn't change anything.

Harry Stevenson:
How so?

Bradley Smith:
Well, Chloe knew what was gonna happen to Oscar.

Harry Stevenson:
What do you mean she knew?

Bradley Smith:
She did. She went to some psychic lady who predicted the whole thing.

Harry Stevenson:
She believed her?

Bradley Smith:
Yes, Harry. She did. And she didn't run away. She didn't crawl into a hole. She found them a house, she threw away her birth control, and she married him. God doesn't hate us, Harry. If he did, he wouldn't have made our hearts so brave.
