She bounced on the head of the shovel to drive it deeper into the soft earth, as she asked him bluntly, "So why were you and Terri arguing earlier?" "She's my sister, we argue," he hedged.
"Ya'll argue, but you usually don't blow up like that. Penny said she's really upset," Rocky said with a ...grunt as she shoved her foot down on the shovel again. "Must be something important?" "Nah, just something stupid." Like him wanting to get his old life back, and her trying to shove the ranch medic job down his throat. He couldn't tell Roxanne about his desire to rejoin the fire department though, she had been working her butt off to get him on that search and rescue team, and he knew she was firmly on Terri's team too, expecting him to take the ranch medic job. Telling Roxanne his plans would probably result in an argument with her too, and he'd had enough drama for one night. Until the rescue at the creek the other day had got him to thinking, he had been going to do just what they expected. Now, he was determined to get that Captain's job and be a firefighter again.MoreLess
