Cowboy Take Me Away
“Never had he felt so utterly exposed, so utterly foolish. The last thing the people in that town had seen of him was the sheriff hauling him off to jail. How much more could he have humiliated himself?
No. Forget him. How much more could he have humiliated Shannon?
It’s done now. Let it go. Concentrate on where you’re going, not where you’ve been.
He forced himself to conjure up his favorite fantasy, the one where they’d hand him that belt buckle, that big check, and everybody would... be clapping and cheering and calling him a champion. He’d stand on that stage and take in all the accolades, letting them rain over him like ticker tape during the most spectacular parade the world had ever seen.This time, though, the picture changed. The fantasy became blurry, out of focus. It began to slip away, replaced by an odd, surrealistic chain of events radically different from anything he’d ever imagined. Just like before, he saw people shaking his hand, slapping him on the back, acting as if the Second Coming would pale in comparison to what had taken place there that night.MoreLess
