Homesick

"The Path Home is Overgrown"

Excerpt One

Henry Burroughs drove the roundabout to Fayetteville on a cool February morning while Alice Jane cradled their son wrapped in a blanket. She sung softly to him as he tried to grab her hair. Her smile made him laugh. HIs face pink from the cool breeze, his bright blue eyes wide as he watched his mother. Henry kept his gaze ahead but felt at ease from his wife's lullaby.

Excerpt Two

McCarty sat at he desk in the corner of the room. He was writing notes on a small piece of paper. The candle next to him was the only source of light in the room. The moon was behind the clouds and Doc slept in the darkness cast by the shadows. He stirred feverishly groaning slightly.
McCarty stood up and went over to the sick man. He laid his cool hand across his forehead. "Feverish," he mumbled into the darkness as he pulled his hand away. He went and dipped a rag in the basin of cool water he'd had Wyatt order. Doc stirred awake as the damp coolness assaulted his face.
