JANUARY 20, 1860
White Wolf wakes up on a bright sunny day in the bunkhouse. She gets up and gets
dressed and walks into where everyone is sitting at the table. Rachel turns from the stove
with a plate of pancakes in her hand.
"Well, good morning to you. You finaly decide to grace us with your presence."
She said to him. They all looked at White Wolf and laughed. White Wolf shook her head and
sat down at the table.
"What no words of wisdom today, White Wolf?" Cody said smiling at him.
White Wolf glared at Cody. "Excuse me!" White Wolf said as she got up and then walked out the door.
White Wolf walked into town. Suddenly she saw a woman walking across the street with
lots of packages in her arms. She tripped on a rock and a lot of the packages fell to the
ground. White Wolf ran over to the woman. She tipped her hat. "Excuse me madam you
look like you could
use some help."
"Yes, I could. Thank you for asking." The woman said. White Wolf helped her
pick up her
packages. "I'm going to the dress shop right over there." She said pointing the
best she could with all the packages in her hands.
"Ok, you go ahead and I'll follow you." White Wolf said smiling at her. They walked into the shop after she unlocked the door. "Thank you so much for your help. You can just lay those packages on the counter behind you. By the way my name is Jasmine McGregor," she said to the man that helped her with her things.
"It was my pleasure, madam, and my name is White Wolf. It�s a pleasure meeting you, Mrs. McGregor."
"So, White Wolf, what do you do in Dreamville?" Jasmine asked.
"I'm a Pony Express Rider and what do you do?" White Wolf wonders if she owns
the store they�re occupying or if she just works there.
"Well, I own this dress shop here. I'm married, my husband�s name is Gavin
McGregor, and we have a daughter, Rose McGregor. We live on a small horse ranch called the
Triple M just outside of town." Jasmine replied, smiling proudly.
"Well you sound like you have a really good life." White Wolf says to her.
"I do." She says to him. "Maybe some day you can come to my house and meet my husband and my daughter." She says looking at him.
"I would be happy to." White Wolf said to her. Tipping her hat to Jasmine she said. "Well, it was nice to meet you. I have to get going. Rachel doesn�t like us being late for meals and I have some errands to run. I'll see you later. You have a nice afternoon Mrs. McGregor." He walked to the door of the shop opened it and left.
"Bye!" Jasmine called after him. White Wolf did her errands and then walked back to the bunkhouse. Before entering the house she saw something and picked it up. Before going inside she tucked it into her pocket.
"Get cleaned up." Rachel said to him. White Wolf went to get cleaned up and on her way to the bunkhouse he studied what he had picked up. He put it under Cody's blanket on his bed and then cleaned up. White Wolf went to the table and sat down and she smiled at Cody.
They all ate their meal and when they finished Teaspoon said. "Well, boys it�s been a long day. It's time to hit the sack. I'll see you all tommorrow. Goodnight." They all got up and got ready for bed."
Good night you guys." Rachel called to them.
"Goodnight!" They all said to her at the same time.
"Goodnight!" They all said to each other and climbed into their beds.
All of a sudden Cody screamed and jumped out of his bed. Cody looked under his
covers. "Ok, who put the snake in my bed?" "
"Cody, I don't get mad. I get even." White Wolf smiled at Cody. Cody picked up the garter snake and put it outside and walked back to his bed. On his way back he smacked White Wolf on his head. Cody walked to his bed got into it and then they all went to sleep.
