give
him
darker
hair
than
he
had
as
a
younger
man
. saddle
him
with
an
unwanted
visitor
.
a
woman
who
says
she
was
sent
by
god
to
convince
him
to
leave
the
only
home
he's
ever
known
.
she'll
claim
she's
trying
to
save
his
life
. he'll
sit
and
tell
her
of
the
cancer
that's
made
his
bones
brittle
and
ravaged
his
mind
.
the
fusion
of
shock
and
shame
that
deflates
her
face
will
tell
him
all
he
needs
to
know
about
who
she
really
is
