"How long I been laid up this time?"
"Just overnight," Mary answered. "The bullet went through the muscle on your shoulder; it didn't hit bone or anything but you bled a bunch. I think you'll be back on your feet in a day or two." Mary fussed around straightening his pillow and the covers. "You just stay in bed until I let you get up."
"Yes 'em, whatever you say. Sides got nowhere to go now, but where ever it is, I think we ought to be together girl."
"Where to?" Mary asked as she and Caleb mounted their horses; Caleb on Gris and Mary on a bay mare he'd bought for her. It was almost three weeks after Caleb had been shot.
"I'd like to go see Wilma in Fort Bliss. Let her know about Ellie, if she don't already, and that the men that killed Ellie have been dealt with." Caleb looked at Mary and smiled.
"What say after that we go back and rebuild my, I mean our, ranch. The hill country around San Antonio is God's own back yard and I think we could make a life for ourselves there."
Mary coyly smiled and said "Suits me just fine. Let's go."
