Part 11.
The morning after the events at Reverend Bjornsson's, I was just sitting down to a bowl of Frosted Flakes when my parents came trundling into the house, back from church. My mother was fanning herself in the heat, her face flushed red against the bright yellow fabric of one of her church dresses. My dad was in his usual "church suit", wearing the tight-lipped expression that indicated he'd been listening to my mother talk all morning.
"And that sermon," my mother said, barely acknowledging me as she walked into the kitchen, "pride, avarice, and
lust
?"âshe whispered the wordâ"sometimes it seems like Reverend Bjornsson talks about sin a little to much, don't you think, honey?"
"Hmmph," my dad replied, a response he'd honed over the years to neither agree nor disagree with whatever my mom had just said.
"And then on and on about the sanctity of marriage? I mean, even Evelyn thought it was a bit excessive. She said so, outside the ladies' room, during reception. And if Evelyn thinks to mention it, well, you know it's out of the ordinary."
"Hmmph."
"And have you heard about his house?" my mom continued, "Marcie-Lynn was over there a few weeks ago to help Janet organize some leaflets and she told me that the houseâdear, are you listening?âthe house, Reverend Bjornsson's house... honey? Well, Marcie-Lynne tells me that it's quite, you know,
gratuitous
." Again she whispered the word, as if to keep out of the Lord's earshot.
I swallowed a soggy mouthful of flakes and kept my head down. It sounded like Reverend Bjornsson had made it out of the garage, after all. I wondered if his wife had come home to find him or if he had finally been able to wiggle himself loose.
I hoped that the "insurance" Stacy had engineered in the form of the Polaroids we'd takenâand that I'd stashed in the shoe box with my tip moneyâwould be enough to keep him at bay. I'd been thinking about those photos. Part of me wanted to send them to the local paper, or whoever Reverend Bjornsson's boss was... but on the other hand, if the photos ever did come out, he would know it was me who leaked them. Reverend Bjornsson's snarling face flashed in my memory and I shuddered. For now, at least, I figured I'd just hold onto the pictures.
My dad unwrapped the Sunday paper and came to sit down across from me at the table. My mom turned to me when she saw that my dad was not going to engage with her attempts at conversation.
"Paul, I'm very sorry you decided not to join us this morning," she said.
This, coming from my mother, was a fairly severe rebuke. Earlier in the morning, she had poked her head into my room to ask if I was coming to church. I'd waved her away, knowing that I'd hear about it later.
"Sorry, late night," I said, into my cereal.
My dad thwacked the paper angrily as he turned the page.
"I was hoping that your conversation with Reverend Bjornsson yesterday would have led you to think a bit more critically about your decisions, sweetie," my mom said.
When I ignored her she walked over to stand behind my chair.
"You know, in terms of maybe not spending so much time out late with your coworkers?" she said, laying a hand on my shoulder.
"OK, mom," I said.
"Goodness, me!" my mom exclaimed loudly, making both my dad and me jump. She walked over to the window. Outside, I saw a uniformed man with a large dog walking around in our neighbors' yard. When I'd gotten home last night, the neighbors' house had been deserted. No police or anything. The neighbors' truck was gone and there were no lights on in the house. Now it looked like there was some more police activity over there. My mom continued to watch out the window.
"It's such a shame," my mom said, "and after they did all that work on the yard, too. I mean, just look at how lovely it is, now. I can't imagine what must have been going on over there to cause such... such a
scene
, you know? That reminds me, I was going to call Bernadette to see if she knew anything more about it. You know, Bernadette's cousin or cousin-in-law, or something like that, I can never remember, she is always going on about this relative or that relative... who could ever keep it all straight? Well, whoever it is supposedly knows that
man
, our neighbor, or at least knew his wife before she died. Oh, it was such a tragic thing, her dying and leaving those boys as young and impressionable as they were. It's no surprise at all that they would have started running with the wrong crowd, what with that
brute
raising them."
As my mom spoke, my dad lowered the paper and gave me a beleaguered look across the kitchen table. For the first time, I saw him as just a man, not as
