Seanye Warhol Meets The Astronomer And His Wife
After leaving the secret underground chipmunk school behind, Seanye Warhol continued on his journey. He soon came to a small town. The most interesting thing about the town was the tall tower right in the middle. When he looked closer, Seanye Warhol saw a telescope sticking out the top of the tower; it was an observatory. He asked a passerby about the giant tower, and she told him how the tower belonged to the local astronomer. She said he was a very quiet and unfriendly man. He kept to himself, only thinking of the stars. Anything he said seemed rude or condescending.
Seanye Warhol was surprised that something as beautiful as the heavens could inspire a man to be so cruel and unfriendly. He went to the tower to meet the astronomer. The astronomer answered the door, and he did seem fairly rude and unwelcoming, but Seanye heard a gentle female voice welcome him in. Seanye Warhol spent the afternoon with the astronomer and his wife and soon learned that the astronomer was actually a very kind and caring man. He loved his wife dearly, and he only seemed irritable and aloof because his study of the heavens required intense thought and concentration, and when he was not thinking about the stars, he was thinking about his wife. There was simply too much in his head. Seanye Warhol asked to see the astronomer's telescope, and the astronomer obliged him. The night sky was truly beautiful. Seanye headed on from the astronomer's tower feeling much better than when he had entered it...
