Between the early and late services, he encounters an unfamiliar young man who looks for all the world like he could use someone to talk to, and who causes Carter to recall his own not-too-distant past. Nevermind that he's attractive and, as Carter comes to discover, kind if not endearingly awkward as well. No, that's completely inconsequential. But isn't the Starry Night Festival meant for nothing if not hope and genuine connection? Even with no promise of them ever again crossing paths, Carter finds himself pondering what exactly that might entail.
