Wild West - Part 10
“The mother?” James continued.
“A fine lady who can take care of herself. Much like Rosanne. In case you’re wondering, last I’ve seen Rosanne she was doing good,” Tom wasn’t sure whether James wanted any more detail about Rosanne, so he paused and waited for James’ response. She was his mother and James’ wife which he had left 29 years ago when Tom was born.
James grunted, but didn’t comment, then got up from the chair and walked over to the counter.
“Whiskey?”
Tom nodded.
“I know you have many questions, Tom, but it is best you find out the answers for yourself,” said James while pouring a double whiskey for both, then continued after a brief pause. “See that board behind you?”
“Is that your next target?”
“Our. Our next target, Tom. ” James placed the two glasses of whiskey on the table and sat down.
“Is now the time you tell me about Him?”
“Tell you? No. You will see for yourself. He is arriving any minute now.”
James raised his glass and Tom followed suit.
“Here’s to our first job together.”
They raised their glasses at each other, then both chugged their drinks, slamming the empty glasses back onto the table.
"Board"

an idea for a story you'd love to read,
