She had driven Phillip and Rosemary down to their cars a little before nine that morning so that they could be on their respective ways: he to his ten o’clock class at AB Tech, and she to Chapel Hill.

“I’ll be back Thursday,” Rosemary had promised. “Mum, how about if I meet you at the Trish Trantham Lifeworks place at one? That’s when she said she could see us.” With an enthusiasm she did not feel, Elizabeth had agreed. She had kissed her daughter good-bye, and watched her drive away. Phillip had taken his time, first opening his trunk as if in search of something, then going into the greenhouse to speak to Julio. Finally he returned and stood by the jeep’s open window.

“Julio says that he and Homero will be right here all day and they’ll keep an eye on the road. I’ll feel a lot better once you’ve done some target practice.” He started to say more, then stopped himself. His hand started up in the familiar gesture.

Elizabeth reached out the window and grabbed the hand, halting its upward sweep. “I know; you want me to be careful. And I will. It’ll take me most of the day to vacuum all those books and put them back in order. And I’ll keep Sam’s gun nearby.”

Phillip leaned to kiss the hand that held his. “Take care of yourself, my love.”
