*****

Scott rubbed down his horse, even though he was in a hurry to talk to Savannah. Listening to Jesse had helped him realize he needed to make some changes in how he was speaking to his wife. She may not be doing exactly what he wanted her to do, but nowhere in the marriage vows had it said that a wife would stay home and care for the house and cook while the man worked.

As he was walking toward the house, he saw some dandelions poking up their heads in an unused pasture. He didn't want to take the time to run to the store to get flowers, so they would do. She would understand what he meant by the gesture surely.

When he walked into the house, he searched for her, not seeing her right away. The burger she'd thrown at him was still on the floor where it had landed, and he frowned. Wasn't she over her mad enough to pick up the mess she'd made yet?

He decided that since he was going to take the high road this time, he should pick up the mess and throw it away. He dug through the refrigerator and found a bottle of root beer, pouring it into a glass. He put the dandelions into the bottle with a little water and smiled at his creation. He would have made a good florist.

He picked up the burger from the floor and wiped up the last of the ketchup from the hardwood floor. Going into the kitchen, he saw that she hadn't touched the lunch dishes, but because he'd upset her, he put them into the dishwasher and started it himself.

He went up the stairs, looking for her. Finding her in the bedroom, sitting on the bed with the phone beside her, he walked over and sat beside her. He put his arm around her, half-expecting her to flinch away from him. "I'm sorry I was such an ass."

Savannah looked into his eyes. "Do you really think you were?" She wouldn't repeat the word he'd used, because she didn't like it, but it did fit his behavior well.

He nodded. "I talked to Jesse, my foreman. He told me that I was wrong about a few things."

"Oh?" She wanted to hear what he had to say, but she really wasn't certain if she was ready to forgive him quite yet. "What were you wrong about?"

"My mother worked until I was born. She worked at the diner in town. She quit when I was born, but she didn't always take care of my dad like I thought she did." He shrugged. "I guess I shouldn't have made those assumptions."

Savannah sighed. "This is about more than what your mother did and didn't do. You can't expect me to be your mother all over again. I'm your wife. My life was different than yours and our feelings about certain things formed separately. I always had a working mother, and I never felt like I was neglected. Your mother never worked, and you didn't feel neglected.
