George stared over at Elam, who sat across the bench seat. A gentle breeze danced through the open windows and into the cab. “Do you know what you’re doing, Elam?”

“Jah. I’m going home.”

“No, you’re not. Your home is with my sister – your wife!” George frowned at his one-time friend.

Elam stayed silent and that only caused George’s blood to boil more.

“You’re a coward, running back home to Mommy and Daddy.”

Elam looked away. “You’re Englisch; you can’t understand.”

“You’re right, Elam. I can’t understand why in the world you would want to leave your wife. Don’t your people read the Good Book? Did you miss the part that says ‘what God hath joined together, let man not put asunder’? Did you not read the passage where God says He hates divorce? How about the part that says ‘Husbands, love your wives’?”

“Bishop Mast says worldly vows don’t mean anything. They’re not bound by the church. It’s only the vows we make to the church that we have to keep.”

“That’s ridiculous! So you’re telling me that you were lying through your teeth when you stood at the altar and married my sister? Is that what you’re saying?”

“No. I married your sister because I thought I loved her.”

“You thought you loved her?” If George hadn’t been driving, he certainly would have knocked Elam into next Tuesday. “You have another woman, don’t you? That’s why you’re leaving my sister, isn’t it?”

“No, never!”

“I don’t believe you.”

Elam shrugged.

“You’re despicable. You and all your kind. Don’t you ever show your face around my sister again. You don’t deserve her anyhow.”

“I don’t plan to.”

“What is wrong with you people? You think that just because you’re Amish you have some special connection to God? That you can just make up your own rules and ignore what He says in His Word? Well, that’s where you’re wrong. You people are about the furthest from God there is. A horse and buggy and plain clothes never saved anybody and never will. And it certainly doesn’t make you live right.” George wished that he could go back and erase the previous year for his sister’s sake, and save her from a broken heart, but he knew that was impossible. Never in his life would he ever trust another Amish person again.

George had a whole lot more he could say, but what good would it do? Elam’s mind had been made up. Both George and Elam stayed silent for the remainder of the ride to his parents’ home.
