But they can hurt me

Well if it's used the way you used it yeah

Oh oh oh so they're kind of the opposite of God

What

Ironing boards can hurt me but I shouldn't be afraid of them but God my brother Rob says God won't hurt me but I should fear

I guess

Boy this is getting very complicated

What is

This business of learning what hurts what doesn't hurt what to be afraid of when not to be afraid of

Are you sure you're okay? You're just going on and on about crazy stuff

Oh yeah yeah see I have congenital analgesia he thinks some

What

Congenital analgesia

Don't feel pain... Right... Of course you're okay but are you sure

Well is there any blood

No

Any discoloration

No

Then I'm okay

Well buddy you can be hurting not even look like it

But

Trust me there are things that hurt you that make you bruised and bloody but there are things that hurt you that don't make you bruise or bloody and they all hurt ... I'm... My name is marvelyn

Hi marvelyn I'm Steve

Hi Steve I just moved in so I don't know many people here what room are you

Room 3 second floor

Oh we're on the third floor room 7

Yeah right above us we saw you and your husband move in

Oh he's not my husband he's my boyfriend Eric

Oh

Yeah roof collapse from all the snow in December we're just here till we can get our feet back on the ground

Oh well that's good cuz that's what Ma Dudley says her boarding house is a place for people getting their feet back on the ground my brother Rob says we've been trying to get our feet back on the ground or whole lights

Oh

Yeah take some people longer than others

Yeah

You guys are loud

Huh

You and Eric you yell and bang we're right below you

Oh sorry about that we're going through a rough patch happens sorry ... What's it like

What's what like

To not feel pain

I don't know I don't know what it's like to hurt so I don't know

Is this how you were born

Yeah I don't have fully developed pain sensors they're immature my brother Rob says and because they're immature

How does he know that

Oh he reads

But

And because they're immature my development as a human being has been retarded he says

But

But he teaches me what hurts

Why

So I won't ruin myself I have to know what hurts so I know when to be afraid see my mind can't tell me when to be afraid cuz my body doesn't know what being hurt is so I have to memorize what might hurt

Okay makes sense

And I have to memorize what to be afraid of things like Bears guns knives and fire and fear I should be afraid of fear itself and pretty girls

Pretty girls?

Yeah

Why should you be afraid of pretty girls

Well cuz my brother Rob says they can hurt you cuz they make you love them

What

And that's something I'm supposed to be afraid of to love because Rob says that I'm really lucky cuz I'll probably never have to deal with love because I have a lot of deficiencies and not very many capacities as a result of congenial analgesia

Wait what do you mean you're never going to have to deal with love why

Cuz I'm never going to know what it feels like Rob says

Why does he know that

Cuz it hurts

It shouldn't

And plus I have a lot of deficiencies and not very many capacities

You know what a lot of people do

*** marvelyn and kisses Steve

I'm sorry I'm so sorry are you all right are you okay

Well is there any blood

No

Any discoloration

No

Then I'm all right I think

Yeah you are I'm so sorry I did that it's just you're just very sweet

Yes I do

Eric

Yep

And you're his girlfriend and he's your boyfriend you must love each other right

Yeah we do very much

But you just kissed me

And people who love each other they don't kiss other people and do their laundry on Friday nights I've learned that... I think maybe you and your boyfriend don't actually love each other

You know what I've been down here longer than I said I would be and he doesn't like that

Who

My boyfriend

Who you love

Yes

Very much

Yes

Even though you kissed me

Yes

Well I'm going to have to talk to my brother Rob about this

No don't talk to your brother about this tell him to stop teaching you

Tell him to stop teaching me what

Whatever he's teaching you tell him to stop what is teaching you isn't something you want to know

But I have to learn from him

Look I was going to be a nurse so I know you need to go to a doctor and not have your brother read whatever it is he reads

But I have to learn from him

You know what I got to go

Right you got to go you're leaving I knew you would that's what people do

No I just have to... I told you Eric doesn't like it if

Your boyfriend?

Yeah he doesn't like it if I'm down here longer than I said I'd be and I've been down here longer than I said I'd be
