The next two days went by in much the same awkward silence, and Trieve had yet to even acknowledge the reality of the fact that she was practically down to serving him peanut butter sandwiches herself.

Not willing to confront him – and figuring he’d just clam up even more when she wanted to discuss his finances – or lack thereof – she decided one morning, just after he’d left from breakfast, that she wasn’t going to expect him to do anything about the situation any longer. She’d fix it herself.

So she called information and had a cab come out – there was one whole cab for the entire burg of Heartbreak, who seemed to know where she was immediately – and he came out and brought her back to town.

Sometimes living near a small town had its advantages.

The driver was a very nice fellow who offered to wait for her to get her groceries so she could store them in his trunk, then pick her up when she was all done shopping and take her back out to the ranch. She agreed thankfully and gave him a healthy tip.

She’d brought her list – to which she added liberally as she shopped at the one and only grocery store in town, despite her reservations, because she knew that tiny, regional grocery stores were barely above convenience stores in price and selection, but she was able to get almost everything she wanted there, and what she couldn’t get there, she got at the local hardware store.

As her purchases were run up – and not scanned, she noticed – the plump cashier came right out and asked, “Are you Trieve Jensen’s new girl?”

Jayne wasn’t at all sure how to answer that, so she merely gave the woman a small smile that neither confirmed nor denied her suspicions.

“I hope the two of you will be very happy.”

Thanking her generally without acknowledging her wish for them that definitely wasn’t going to come true, Jayne gathered her items, thinking how things were between them – and of his attitude towards females in general – and muttering to herself something to the effect of “not fucking likely”.

She could see the cab was parked outside a diner, and realized she was pretty hungry herself, so she stowed her things back there and took a booth at the back, realizing as she entered that all eyes would be on her for the entire time she was here.

“What can I get you, honey?” the waitress at her elbow snapped her gum incessantly, and even blew a few bubbles for added measure.

Not having been offered a menu, Jayne replied without thinking, “A bacon cheeseburger, fries and a Diet Coke, please.”

“Say, are you Trieve Jensen’s girl?” she asked before leaving, as if she was inquiring whether Jayne wanted ketchup with that.

Jayne sighed. She’d grown up in a small town. She knew how fruitless it was to try to buck the grapevine. “I guess so, but not really.”

“Mmm-mmm-mmm,” the other woman rhapsodized, getting a faraway look in her eye.
