He appeared normal. He spoke and behaved just like anyone
else. The fact that he had no heart was very well concealed. Well, that's not
entirely true. He did have one. It was just not in his possession at the
moment. And this is where the story gets complicated. The woman who had the
darn thing was blithely unaware of the fact. Well, that's not entirely true
either. She knew that she'd left the relationship with more stuff than when she
entered it, she just hadn't bothered to do a proper inventory. (Had she done
so, she would have found the heart, as well as a set of balls.) Regardless, his
dilemma remained the same. A woman had absconded with a vital organ and the
gnawing emptiness he felt was a direct reflection of that vacancy. Well, that's
not entirely true either. The gnawing thing had actually been with him since he
was a child. He just liked to assign blame for the condition.
