I told myself to stay away from him, but my curiosity got the better of me.  If only I hadn't knocked on his door.  That’s when things went downhill.  That’s when things got a whole lot more complicated.  I came to Lonesome to recover from a broken heart.  I’m afraid I’ll be leaving with a heart more damaged than it was when I arrived.
