Adam watched through the large front window of the mercantile while Tommy kept Nora busy showing her toys. Jumping up and down every time she nodded her head, he ran to the front of the store to plop another item on the counter.
When Nora looked up to see him through the window, she spoke to Tommy and came outside while the boy looked over some wooden trains. She breezed through the front door like she always did, her skirts flying around her. Nora knew how to make an entrance and an exit.
“We’re heading to Dallas, Ma. Thanks for coming to take care of Melody and Tommy.”
“Of course. Rusty and I will take care of things here. You make sure you get a healthy pony. Oh, and about that horse and wagon? Perhaps you may want to check on that while you are in Dallas.”
Adam reassured her they had every intention of doing so. “Sure we will, Ma. See you when we get back.”
Nora nodded before returning to the mercantile to help Tommy with his purchases. “Boys, be safe.”
The three rode out of town, turning left towards the city. It was another few hours to Dallas which gave them plenty of time to plot the inevitable. Adam turned to his brothers. “We’re not letting him get away with this.”
Luke agreed. “You’re right, Adam. There’s no way. We’ve known Melody since she was young. She’s like our sister.”
Adam rubbed the whiskers on his chin he hadn’t had a chance to shave. Tomorrow was Saturday so he’d get to it then. “We’re going to have to be careful. The coward is a big city lawyer. He has the law on his side.”
Samuel laughed. He clicked his horse to go faster. “If he can catch us. Ain’t nobody ever done messed with the White boys and won.”
Luke and Adam joined in. They tried to catch up to Samuel who was now in the lead until Adam got ahead of him. He looked back and grinned. No one wanted to up that fancy coward more than him!
It took almost two hours until they were in the city limits. When they led their horses into the livery, Adam spotted Melody’s wagon tucked away in a corner of the yard inside a fenced in area.
The livery manager came out to greet them. “Howdy, names Welch. You men need to rest the horses?”
Adam slid from the saddle. “Sure do, may have to leave within a moment’s notice.”
Welch eyed the three with suspicion. “Why’s that?”
“No reason, just wanted the horses ready to go in case we get called back to our ranch. We have a family friend who is ill and we’re looking to buy a pony for her son.”
Welch relaxed. “No, problem then. Forgive me, gentlemen, I thought you may be troublemakers.”
“Nah, not us. We’re here doing a favor for our Ma. Hey, by the way, you know who owns that wagon over yonder in the yard, the one in the corner behind the fence?”
Welch twisted around to see which wagon they spoke of.
