“A Roof Over Our Heads and Food On The Table” introduces Pat Kavanaugh, who wanted to major in English at Nutmeg State University. His parents persuaded him to major in accounting because it would be more practical than being a writer. At NSU, he met his roommate Sean Donnelly. Both Irish Americans, they became friends despite Sean’s troubling secret. Pat then becomes a cashier at Delacroix’s Grocery Store. After graduation, Pat continued working at Delacroix’s, but the chances of advancement were rather slim.
Pat then began a job search. Along the way, he moved to his own apartment, attended Sunday Masses at All Saints Church, became friends with another parishioner, and met a young woman. He also invested in a business that his parents felt was unethical. In the end, Sean was always there for him.
