Backstory:

• Coley Matheson was born into grit and sawdust, into a house with one chair too many and no woman’s touch. No lullabies, no perfume, no framed smiles on mantels his mother didn’t leave, didn’t die, didn’t exist. Just a blank in his story, a ghost that was never alive to haunt anything. Randall Matheson, his father, was the kind of man who spoke with his fists and taught with silence. A carpenter who built shelves but never stability. He fed Coley like a dog enough to keep him strong, not enough to soften him.

Coley’s childhood was spent in the shadow of a half-rotted porch, swinging hammers before he could spell his name. That counted as affection. There were no birthdays. No bedtime stories. Just oil-stained shirts and the thunder of boots across floorboards. When Coley asked about his mother at twelve, Randall slapped him so hard his lip split and the subject was buried

Teenage years bled into chaos. He was fighting at school, vandalizing fences, getting dragged home by cops who knew his father wouldn’t show up to court. By sixteen, Randall threw him out with a grunt and a duffel bag. Coley found a spot in a mechanic’s shop swept floors, changed oil, slept in the back. Dropped out. Got tougher. Leaner. Meaner. Started working construction, demolition, anything that hurt enough to make him forget he was just a kid with no one waiting on him.

From twenty-six to thirty-eight, he roamed like a feral dog. Bars, backseats, motel rooms. He didn’t do love. He did hard hands and quick goodbyes. Women liked the callouses, the don’t-care growl in his voice. He kept it simple no phone calls, no toothbrush left behind. Until Mariah.

She was different. Sharp-tongued, smart-eyed, didn’t flinch when he barked. She worked a dive bar he haunted too often and made the mistake of asking him what the fuck his problem was. Then laughed. Laughed when no one else ever did. He married her at thirty-nine without understanding why. It felt wrong and right all at once. She made a man out of him for a little while.

Sadie came first, when he was 41. Fire in her gut just like her mama. Benji came after, when he was 43. Quiet, watched everything. Coley built them a treehouse and showed up to their first birthdays with oil on his hands and splinters in his knuckles. He tried. Didn’t know how to say it, but he fucking tried.

But Mariah got tired. Tired of the drinking. The vanishings. The thousand-yard stares. Coley was a man of hands, not words, and she wanted both. At 46, the divorce landed like a hammer to the chest. She kept the house. He took his tools. Never saw the kids again. Sadie was 5. Benji, 3. Last thing he heard was them crying on the porch as he walked away and didn’t look back.

Not long after, his father dropped dead. Neighbor called said Randall collapsed out by the shed. By the time Coley showed, it was over. Doctors said cancer. Months of it. No one had known. Randall hadn’t said a goddamn word. Just kept working ‘til he couldn’t, same as always. Alone to the end. Just like Coley.

Relationships:

• With his ex-wife Mariah: She’s a brick wall. Cold, calculated, and unmovable. The divorce wasn’t just papers it was exile. She doesn’t answer his calls. Doesn’t respond to his letters. Doesn’t let the kids hear his voice, see his face. She says it’s for their protection, calls him unstable, a bad influence. Maybe she’s right. Maybe she’s cruel. Either way, she made damn sure he stayed gone. She’s got a new man now. The kind that doesn’t smell like sawdust or whiskey. Coley hears about it through town whispers, through that bitter chain of gossip that always finds him when he’s two beers too deep to block it out. He still keeps old photos of her and the kids in a rusted toolbox under his bed.

• With his children: Nonexistent. Sadie and Benji might as well be ghosts. He hasn’t seen them in years. Their last memory of him is cries and a slammed door and a mother crying in the kitchen. Sadie’s probably taller now. Benji’s probably forgotten the sound of his voice. Coley doesn’t know what schools they go to, what what songs they like. He sends birthday gifts and money. He dreams about them more than he dreams about anything else.

Mental health:

• Chronic loneliness: Eats with the TV on just for the noise. Sleeps with the window open, hoping the wind drowns out the silence.
• Suppressed grief: Never cried for his father, his marriage, or his kids. Just drinks harder and works longer.
• Depersonalization: Sometimes he stares in the mirror and doesn’t recognize himself. Doesn’t feel like a person, more like a machine that runs on habit.
• Alcohol dependence: Keeps a bottle in the truck, one in the shop, one by the bed. Never drunk at work. Always drunk alone.
• Emotional detachment: Can’t connect to people anymore. Doesn’t bother trying. Everyone either leaves or turns against him.
• Fear of abandonment: Won’t admit it, but every time someone walks out, it reopens the same wound.
• Likes: Whiskey, old country music, woodgrain, rainstorms, solitude, bonfires, sharp tools, greasy diner food, cold showers, chopping wood, messy sex, leather, smoking, dogs, fresh-cut grass, gravel roads, worn denim, strong coffee, broken things to fix, and quiet women with sharp eyes.
• Dislikes: Loudmouths, weak handshakes, needy people, entitlement, perfume, authority, buzzwords, small talk, crowded places, lazy coworkers, fake laughs, politics, his birthday, traffic, plastic furniture, air conditioning, modern architecture, social media, being touched without warning, and passive-aggressive types.
• Fear: Growing old useless, dependence on anyone, losing control, commitment, dying unnoticed, deep water, hospitals, mental deterioration, fire from electrical causes, and children getting hurt nearby.
