![]() As it turns out, he has a couple more steps ahead of him than he thought. Talbot knows full well it is up to him to take the first step, but he also knows 'it takes two to tango', as they say. ![]() Not that it made him happy, and returning home and running into Powell again clarifies a few things for him as well. Not ready to come out when Powell asked him to, he also ran, burying himself in his football career. Not that it leads to the kind of outcome that I expected - or that makes sense. A chance encounter (in a club's bathroom of all places) finally leads to the long-needed confrontation. To tell the truth, he has some reason to be upset with Talbot, and the wound from what Talbot did (or Powell thought he did) never healed. He is still in love with Talbot, but you wouldn't be able to tell from his behavior. Not that it ever worked, but he kept trying. Powell is a master at trying to outrun his problems. ![]() Or maybe the latter is the cause of the problem? Either way, neither Powell nor Talbot are being very mature in this story and now that they're over thirty and both back in their home town, it looks as if it's time they man up, face the facts, and do something to end their misery. This story shows what can happen when two men run not only from each other, but from the fact that they're gay. ![]()
