Chapter 4

Lisa sat in the saddle of her horse, Jeb, headed out of town. She thought back fondly on what had happened that day as the sun dipped low in the horizon. She had made a new friend who had turned out to be much more than a friend. Although she knew that the relationship between her and Ted would never blossom as much as it deserved he was still very special to her.

Before she’d saddled up to ride out he had asked her to think about what he’d said about them doing it again every time she road into town. She’d tried to explain that she didn't come into town often. In fact the most she came in to tows was probably twice a year, but he wouldn't have it. Pressing a finger to her lips to silence her, Ted had explained that he didn't need an answer right then. She could think about it for as long as it took.

Lisa had mounted up without saying anything further, and now she was headed back out on the dusty trail. The events of the day had pushed the thought of the Indian out of her mind, but as the shadows grew long as the sun set it call came back to her—the fear, the thoughts she'd had when she'd thought she was going to die.

There wasn't much she could do now but head back home. She wasn't worried about what Frank would say at all, though. She could easily make up some kind of story where it had taken her long than expected to get the shoe on. Lisa doubted that Frank would even say anything to her coming home after dark. When she really thought about it coming home after dark from town wasn't anything out of the ordinary.

Even though she didn't expect to make the same mistake twice, she had to be careful of how she acted around Frank. And there she went again, thinking that what had happened had been a mistake. Lisa was having a hard time recalling the exact line of thought that had made the affair okay in her mind, but she knew at the time something really good had occurred to her. Whatever it had been, she didn't feel horrible about what had happened, and that told her a lot.

Things with Frank weren't going well. That much was clear to her now.

Stress from trying to keep the homestead going had taken its toll on their relationship. It hadn't helped when she hadn't been able to get pregnant. Something she didn't like to think about and neither of them brought up was how she hadn't wanted to get pregnant before they tried and then she'd changed her mind.

Lisa wondered at times if Frank blamed her. She wondered if he thought that she’d asked God to make her pregnant. Maybe that was why he didn't take his duties as a husband seriously the vast majority of the time.

Gah, Lisa thought, how many times am I
